FINISHED CHRISTMAS BUNTING, et al

 

Here is my bunting hanging in place...
anchored on my two wrought iron 
candleholders....
I had originally made 11 and it turned out
WAY too long for this spot...
SO I cut if down and now have
four to start a new one for a gift...

I will be leaving this up through Christmas.
😇💚🌝⛄

Here is a long shot of my fireplace 
which is 
just to the left of the dining room and
open to the kitchen area separated
by an eating counter...

I like that the flag with my Grand-mere's crocheted lace
sets in the center of my bunting...

The lovely picture over the fireplace was one of
my mother-in-laws that she received as
a wedding gift...
I just love the soft serenity of it..

***************************
I have switched my little corner 
in my sewing room
from hand sewing projects to
paper crafting for a while;
my hands really are in need 
of a long resting period
after making all these flags 
and also working on
quilting "Sunrise Sunset". 

I will finish the border quilting 
on that quilt..
 on my machine I think...

***************************
Meanwhile, I will be  still sewing my neutral
Ojos blocks on Helga and 
working in my old 
"En Masse" gluebook,
begun in 2023

I am hoping to get it finally finished up...
[I need to make a list of items for
pages that need finishing.]
And....
Here are a few examples of finished pages:
faces

models

umbrellas

and, books
to show you a very few
 examples of my collections...

Such a relaxing way to 
spend an afternoon...
;)))
