My Lovely Tilda Parcel from Claire

Ooh look what came today - a gorgeous parcel of Tilda gifts from Claire - and boy did she spoil me with so many lovely things -
How gorgeous is this pocket/pouch to hold my hoop (which was inside) and a cute needlecase to match.  And some yummy Lindt chocolates, which may or may not be open in this photo.

And there was more - loved this gorgeous zippered sewing bag, which had a matching  pin/needle keep and Claire had added some lovely stork scissors.  And at the back is a great throw - so pretty.
Feels like lovely muslin with a lovely splash of Tilda fabric on one side.
Had to show you the back of my gorgeous zippered bag.

Claire I cannot thankyou enough - I just LOVED my gorgeous parcel. Thankyou - you went to so much time and effort. Cheryl

Tilda swap…..

Today the postman brought me my Tilda swap parcel from Keryn and I found a “New friend” nestled in amongst shredded tissue paper as well some very lovely Tilda fabric and bling trim, Cosmo threads, applique needles, sparkly Christmas ribbon as well as some yummy almond bread and Ferrero Rocher chocolates which I have to admit have already been nibbled on over a latte.

I was very spoilt!

Now to meet my new friend…… RUDOLPH

Keryn had popped in a lovely card explaining how hard it was for her to locate Tilda fabric where she is living and could only find the one lonely fat 1/4, but you know what I think, I think Keryn made the perfect alternate choice when she chose to make me something Christmassy because anyone who knows me knows I love Christmas Smile Thanks Keryn you made my week!

Tilda For Christine.

I posted my Tilda swap yesterday afternoon and was very surprised to receive an email from Christine this morning to say that it had arrived. Well done Australia Post!
Christine, of MacDonald's Patch, is my swap partner for this round. Christine's camera doesn't want to work so I will post my photos for the swap.
I have enjoyed Tilda books for many years, so I had a lot of fun choosing my projects.
From the book, Crafting Christmas Gifts, I made the snowman and penguin.

They are rugged up for our Winter and will wait patiently for Christmas.
I couldn't resist playing with ribbons, so this heart was a perfect choice.

The heart came from the book, Tilda's Summer Ideas. The ribbons are stitched onto a gorgeous green Tilda fabric.
The next item is a notebook and cover.

This is actually a Marg Low design but it is made with Tilda fabrics.
Inside there is one of Marg's little notebooks.

I have enjoyed making these items for Christine and am thinking I may have to make a few more for me to play with as well.
Enjoy your Tilda items, Christine, and stay cozy and warm this weekend.
Cheers, Karen

All Ready for the Postie!

Phew I made it! With holidays looming I was getting worried. All wrapped and ready. Woo Hoo!
Keep your eyes peeled!
Hugs Michelle xx
