Some stitchy gifts for family members this christmas. We have managed to buy things only for the immediate family (the 5 of us), and we do this because we don't often buy new things for ourselves or our children, but we believe firmly in handmade or thrifted for gifts and so I have been stitching up a storm. The embroideries for my niece and nephew have been attached to canvas for bedroom art, while others have been turned into ornaments for next year. And a pair of cushions for struan's sister and partner. The other stitched gifts for my family members are already at their destinations waiting for unwrapping tomorrow.
I wish everyone a merry christmas, some quiet moments in a busy day, and think again of Christchurch as new shocks unsettle their lives again.
wow those are absolutely gorgeous gifts! so wish I could sew! But I think I'm genetically missing the gene or something..
