As we got most of our Christmas decorations up last weekend and also the tree, it left me with some time to finish those two projects I had started last week.The first one I put together using left over fabric from the Christmas table runner I made earlier and some Christmas decorations I bought in Lidl. They were a perfect match colourwise, but as I only had two, I had to make the centre wreath from felt and some cute Christmas buttons I had to hand. The middle squares measure 6" by 6" and it is quilted in an all over pattern.
The second wall hanging is a variation of the Christmas Table runner, with some decorations hanging from the tree. I bought the crochet angel and star at a local craft fair in the village along with the little felt house, all purchased from the makers. The ceramic Xmas tree was purchased at the Craft & Design Fair again from the maker. The plan is to fill the tree over the years with all handmade decorations from local craft workers. It is quilted in an all over pattern and measures 15" by 33" finished.
I am delighted with the Table Runner and two Wall Hangings and can't wait to put them out. The house is almost ready for Christmas but I still have loads of small gifts to finish off etc. and some Christmas shopping to do! I hope your own Christmas plans are coming together for you. Until next week, bye for now.
