Can you believe it??!?I still have SO MUCH to do before Christmas. If only I was like my sister-in-law and had my presents wrapped months before! But no, I still have a couple of presents to add under the tree, didn't send ANY cards (sorry friends!!), and I still have much to prepare! Maybe next year I'll be more organised, but I say that every year, so hmmm.....
I thought I would share two gorgeous things two gorgeous stitchers sent me (the pic not the real thing haha) using my Christmastime range.
Patricia Benavidas from Spain sent this wonderful photo of a quilt she made. I LOVE IT!! So creative! I love the words, and how the image has been enlarged and appliqued, I love the borders, and I love how the panel images have been used.
M a Carmen from France (I hope I have your details written correctly. Please forgive me if I have not) sent this amazing photo to me - what a great use of the panel! If only I had thought of it ;)
There certainly are some very creative souls out there huh? Just to let you know too, one of the tasks set aside for the Christmas break is to FINALLY add a gallery to my website, so these pics plus more can be seen by everyone. Fingers crossed it will be soon!
To all of you, I wish you a wonderful and safe Christmas - let it be with family and friends and delicious food!
And Audrey, if you are out there reading this THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for the VERY generous gift you sent. I couldn't resist - as soon as the parcel came, I had to dive straight in and gobble one up (chocolate-coated raspberries!!! DELISH)
Best wishes for the New Year
Anni

Merry Christmas to you, Pete and the rest of the Downs family. Hope 2013 is a great year for you and all of the family.
I used the Christmas panel to make gift bags to put the pressies in. But I am not as clever as those other ladies.

Hope you had a very Merry Christmas Anni. Wishing you and your family a wonderful and happy new year. I received a lovely Christmas gift from Grethe in Norway made from one of your patterns( the shoe bag.).

Dear Anni,
My name is Mercè Guardia from Barcelona and I'm the designer of the Christmas Tree made from panel you have posted in your blog. I'm very happy to see you have liked it!! I made kits and sold out completely!!
Best regards, and Happy New Year!

Patricia from Spain has done a fantastic job, the quilt looks stunning!
The Christmas tree from the panel is gorgeous, I'm not surprised that it sold out!
Hope you had a lovely Christmas.
Santa came here again last week just for me .....I've been sidetracked quilting on what he brought..... LOL.
