Handmade and Homemade Christmas
I like to try for a handmade and homemade Christmas as much as possible and have finished a little blue hexagon quilt and another origami bag. Tomato Relish and Mint Chutney come from the kitchen and some potted plants from the garden. Next is the wrapping and the sorting and all my usual contributions to our family Christmas lunch.

Christmas Sewing
I have been making some fabric origami bags to give to some of the ladies in my life for Christmas. I chose the colours and patterns with the individual in mind, so I hope they like them.
A little Birdie has finished her Christmas sewalong banner, it is the first one I have seen completed and looks great on their mantelpiece. Mine is getting there and I have also been working on a little English Paper Pieced doll's Quilt as a Christmas gift. Lots to do and time is running out.
