festive bunting

I know, I know, its too early to be getting all festive on you but I just couldn't help myself! I actually have christmas fabrics from japan arriving in the store next month (think little russian dolls hanging from christmas trees, I know, cute!) but I just couldn't wait to do a bit of christmas sewing now!


I also found a new spot to photograph buntings which are so tricky to photograph nicely! Retro mummy's retro bar........ahhh wood panelling, its so 1981! I was also glad to use up a bit of the cheap nasty bias binding that I picked up on ebay (cheaply) but that my machine absolutely hated as you can see by that little pucker. Last time I sewed with it the underneath of my machine decided to chew up some of it! I had actually dumped the whole pack in my scrap bin but resurrected it for the bunting but its painful to sew with.


And winner drawn tonight on the pattern giveaway to be fair to all our overseas readers who haven't got to sunday night yet! Thanks ladies for letting me know it wasn't Sunday night in your part of the world!
