Busy Creating!



It is definitely starting to feel a lot like Christmas around Tied with a Ribbon HQ lately.  This Advent Calendar has been designed for our Term Four Sew Along Classes together with Claire Turpin DesignIt has been a busy Term with all of our classes.  The ladies have been making some gorgeous creations and the Term 4 class list will be out shortly.


This week alone I have been sewing 9 of these Christmas Sacks.  It may be only September but orders are coming in quite consistently for these.  I love how individual these always are.  Even though the character may be the same I always use different fabrics and no two names are even spelt the same way.  



I also have started a new quilt.  I made a Disappearing 9 Patch quilt for my Mum's birthday earlier this year.  I love this design and have been keen ever since to make another.  I love how complicated or simple you can make the colours.  With Mum's I choose 9 Kaffe fabrics in pinks,oranges and yellows.  This time this is the colour way I have gone with.



I love these Reds with the Peacock green and blues in plains to break up the bold Kaffe prints.


And speaking of my favourite Peacock colours - here is my "Liberty Bliss"  scarf - it is coming along.  I can't wait to thread through some beautiful Liberty Tana Lawn through the spaced trebles in the scarf.
