My Swap Present to Michelle

I just thought I would pop in and post a picture of the swap present that I made for Michelle (Toffle). I actually only took a picture of bag though, as the apron was hard to photograph.

I am now half way through making another 5 of these bags as it was such a hit when I showed my friends. Two went off to friends today, and I have 3 left to finish....one for my sister-in-law for Christmas and one for my sister for Christmas - and one for me (just because I couldn't miss out). The past week and a half since the market has also seen me make 13 pencil rolls; 5 appliqued singlets; 4 appliqued t-shirts.......and I am still going!!!

So if I haven't been around much lately, it is only because I am busy. In fact, I haven't done the ironing in probably 6 weeks now (I am so embarrassed), and I have barely cooked. Not sure if it is really worth it in the end, but I guess I am enjoying it to a certain extent.

EB Christmas Swap

Once again I have participated in the EB Christmas Sewing Swap. I sent a parcel to Toffle, but I don't think she has opened it yet, so I won't post a picture of what I made for her yet.

And I received a lovely gift from Ingrid. Thank you so much Ingrid.

I received some Christmas and other 'boy' printed fabric, a CD wallet and Christmas CD, a Dr Suess book for James and blog of Greens Dark Chocolate (how did you know I loved dark Chocolate Ingrid??)
