Lap Quilt needs a home :)

So,

if you have been reading

my StitcheryJen blog,

you will know

that I need to find homes

for some of the many "samples"

that I have left over

from my shop days.

Have a look over here

'cos it explains it all :)

Anyway....

 

 

....this is a sweet little lap quilt

I made quite a few years ago,

when I was in Geraldine,

from a range of Yenter fabrics.

I remember it was about the time

that blended quilts

seemed to be very popular

and I made the quilt

using a piece of each fabric

that was in the range.

 

 

The quilt measures 53'' square

and if memory serves me well,

the batting is woollen.

Really soft pretty colours.

It's never been used,

other than for display.

Email if you are interested:)

See you,

Jenny :)

 

 

Merry Christmas:)

I wish you a merry merry Christmas :)

 

 

It's been a bit nutty around here lately,

but I will be back,

next year,

with more goodies I'm sure.

Hope you all have a perfectly wonderful Christmas Day.

Thank you so much for stopping by here

over the past months.

It's been such fun:)

See you soon.

Jenny

 

 



Christmas Goodies

I need to do a little Christmas stitching.

It's not too late, is it??
I'm thinking it might be,
but if I don't finish it this Christmas,
there's always another one:)
Was thinking you might like some Christmas goodies as well.
I had so much fun putting this bundle together.
There's  a couple of bits of fabric
 and a beautiful little piece
of spotted linen,
a chunk of red French General cotton sack cloth
(it's a bit hidden under the other stuff),
 lots of ribbons,
Christmas stitchery cards
and a quilt pattern.
There's a wee red felt pocket
and some pearl cotton.
Cute little gift cards,
and a gorgeous fabulous
Theodora Cleave "angel" decoration!

I love Christmas
and all the bits and pieces that go with it:)
Love to give these away:)
So, if you like,
leave a wee comment
and who knows,
they could be yours:)

See you,
Jenny :)





 



Soft and Sweet Winner

We drew the winner this morning...

Rebecca K!!

There is a little parcel of goodies

on its way

to you.

Enjoy :)

Thanks to everyone that stopped by

and left a comment...

maybe I should do another one soon :)

 

These are some of the gorgeous trims

that I unpacked

at the shop

this week.

 

 

There's pretty much

every colour under the sun...

 

 

...this is probably my favourite lot...

 

 

...but then again...

 

...there is something to be said for pink :)

 

A girl can never have too many trims!

See you

Jenny.

 

 



Soft and Sweet

Inspired by the lovely late spring colours

in my garden,

I poked my nose into my sewing room today,

for the first time in weeks.

Was looking for a new stitchy project

in those sweet soft flowery colours.

While I was looking for the bits and pieces

I needed,

I found some extra bits and pieces.

 

They looked so lovely together,

I thought you might like them too:)

 

 

There's a fabulous Woodcutters Daughter screenprint,

gorgeous Cottage Garden threads,

(I know how much you all like these:)

a little linen and lace bag,

and lavender heart

(made by moi),

white French linen,

cute spotty buttons,

and and little spool of delicious pink ribbon.

 

And besides,

it's been far far too long

since we've had a giveaway :)

So,

if you like the look of this little bundle of treasures,

leave a wee comment here,

or over on my Facebook page,

or leave one on both

and double your chances:)

 

I'm off to start my stitching:)

See you

Jenny

 

 



The Stitchery Sale

A quick post to let you know,

about the last two days of sale,

over on

The Stitchery's

website -

www.thestitchery.co.nz.

Not sure if my emailed newsletter has been delivered,

as we are having major hiccups with Orcon,

so thought I would let you know this way.

Check it out -

two more days,

then all finished:)

See you,

Jenny:)

September's Winner

Just popping in to let you know, ...

the child did the draw last night

and

the winner is...

Leanne Erbs :)

Thanks so much for all the lovely comments

you left -

it's easy to see that Brenda's patterns,

and

Cottage Garden threads

are very very popular:)

Probably because they are

absolutely

gorgeous.

So,

I'm off to wrap up a lovely wee parcel,

and take a trip up the road to the Post Office,

to send it on it's way.

Then,

I get to play today...

 with Jane's quilt.

Have a lovely day:)

Jenny
