I know i am very late with my August giveaway but i wasn't really in the mood for crafting lately. But keep thinking about this as i don't want to
skip it and would like to finish the whole year. So here is what i've made, a pinkeep for the month of August.

Everyone is welcome for the draw, but please please indicate if you want to be added for the draw and
if possible to leave your e-mail address so i know where to contact you. It will be open until monday, 14th Sepetember.

Lisa S. was picked by Chris as the winner for the July giveaway. I just read you will like a mattress pincushion, haven't started yet as i am not sure what are your preferences, hope to hear from you plus your address too.

Thank you all who takes the time to come by and all the nice comments you leave for me. Feeling much better now and getting back to normal routines. Two more weeks and then hubby will be home too. So, i think i really have to try and do lots of stitching before he comes....

Hope you are all having a good week!

This is probably my last x'mas ornament for this year, although i have a couple more that were started last month but i lost interest to finish it.



Took a couple of pictures of the christmas tree from different side with the last ornaments added to it. I didn't make all these ornaments, some are gifts and some are from exchanges these last couple of years.





These are a few of my favorites i can't part with. I am looking for a good tray or basket to arrange them in, but for the moment i'll leave them here at my table.



Thank you all so much for stopping by and all the lovely comments. I deeply appreciate them all.

Christmas Ornaments!!

I heard most of the x'mas ornaments i've sent were received, still waiting to hear from a couple though but i am hoping they are already received as it went out with all the rest. This one received by Lillie in Malaysia, the quickiest to arrived. These complete my stitching from the Quick & Easy booklet and all from Joanne Elliott. Infact i finished 3 of this ornaments.










Here's a picture of them all together before a few sent out. Most i keep it for myself and the booklet is on the way to Mexico.
