Finishing Up

I spent most of my sewing time on the weekend finishing up some goodies that will go into Christmas presents.  Some of these have been sitting around for quite some time, eg these lollipops:


My lunchtime stitching over the last few weeks has been the stitcheries for the star tree decorations from Lynette Anderson's latest Christmas book "Stitch it for Christmas":


I made two more pincushions for The Girls:

So now I have one for each of them; gosh that flower is huge!

Designs by Nikki Tervo, Natalie Bird, Lynette Anderson, Anni Downs
The embroidery machine was going full tilt as well:


I plan to wrap the girls' presents in tea towels.

Mum and I had a wander around the shops in Wollongong on Saturday afternoon - I may have found a shop with some beautiful dresses and suits for Elizabeth's wedding.  Going to check it out further on Thursday night.
