 A wonderful weekend at Debden House in Loughton again for Anne Stacey's quilting Christmas weekend.  We had a really great time and did lots of chatting laughing, too much food and all in all a good time was had by one and all.

I was putting this together, I had started the cutting out last year and it has reposed in my sewing room all this time, so I finished putting it together and did all the satin stitch which took me ages and then got it all put together, it is now backed and wadded and awaiting quilting



Hilary  wanted to finish putting her Bathing Belles together that she had started with Anne earlier in the year and then she got into the festive mood and made this log cabin table topper - it looks lovely and she is busy quilting it.

Josie had bought this kit at the NEC and wanted to get it put together asap.
A few ladies were making stain glass windows and here are a couple of them in different versions.



Don't they look great and the Father Christmas is definitely in charge.

This foundation pieced table runner is really effective and looks really good with the mitred corners.

Delyth amongst other things was making a Fenland landscape with the electric windmills - she had dyed her own skyline fabric it was looking superb.

We had many other little projects to try and I made these two little Christmas tree decorations which are now hanging on my daughter's tree.
 The weather was lovely and we went for a great walk up the back and onto the golf course it was lovely to get some fresh air and the view was beautiful.
