One of the Christmas presents I received from Diann:
Proof that it's not my fault I shop so much.
 |
| My shopping from Anni's Shop - Hatched and Patched |
 |
| Three Country Keepsakes doll patterns and three Hatched and Patched patterns plus a H&P kit and Anni's new book "Some Kind of Wonderful". I also bought some threads, a Theodora Cleave button and some purse snap frames. |
 |
A punchneedle set for my friend's birthday present, pin cushion kit, wool felt, Fig Tree fabric on great sale and some fat quarters of Anni's fabric range. |
I also bought a 10" punchneedle frame. Didn't realise they came in this size - much better for the piece I'm making at present.
 |
| Rosalie Quinlan design. |
I did some stitching while we were travelling. More Rosalie Quinlan.
 |
| "The Two of Us" a small bag design. |
 |
| The finished, unironed design. |
On our way back down the North Coast we stopped at a fabric shop in Macksville and I bought the striped fabric to make up the Rosalie Quinlan bag, the spotty fabric to make a basket liner and seat cover for my bicycle and the floral stripe just because I liked it.
I also finished off this block for my Gingham Girls "My Favourite Things" quilt - there are pearls and buttons to be added once it's quilted.
When we arrived home a parcel was waiting for me from Jenni - she had bought this for me for Christmas but it didn't arrive in time. What a lovely surprise!
Will look fantastc in my sewing room.

It's so wonderful to see that you are ensuring that the retailers don't go bankrupt, Lynda :) Looks like you've made some great purchases!
Great shopping!
Good shopping! So near to my hearted things. I love Anni Downs and her newest book... and yesterday I bought quite the same Fig tree fabrics as you!
You did some great shopping Lynda.
Looking forward to seeing some of it used to make lovely projects through the year.
Pretty purchases...you look like fun to go shopping with...love the mug!
You didn't buy much at Anni's...LOL.....love that cup we all need one of those, your projects look great and I do love what Jenny sent to you....
Looks like you have a wonderful time away. I would like to visit Annie's shop one day. Do you find the punchneedle hard to do. I have bought the punch and hoop years ago but have never tried it .
oh I got to have a little shop the other day too.........love what you got.........
