Full Moon finishes….

004

We had a beautiful golden full moon rising tonight and although my camera just didn’t do it justice, there was an eeriness about it that I think it may have captured…..which made me think about reminding you about this….

which starts next Monday, but if you’re going to fall-ow (LOL), don’t forget to go here and let Gudrun know by Friday, so you’ll be entered in the draw to win this sweet bundle of Halo…

I did manage to get my first Christmas finish completed too.  Remember not too long back, Gloria and I went to the Tinker’s Cart Retreat with Rosalie, Leanne and Bronwyn???  Well, here’s my Winter Wonderland, designed by Rosalie Quinlan……finito!!!

What do you think?   Now, I just need to work out where to hang it??!!

And how are you going with your little birdies for the Challenge with Jenny and me this weekend??  If you’re anything like me, you’d have to have had a head start ….I’m a little slower than most!!!!

Here’s my first one ready to be caged….

I followed Sarah’s pattern from the Homespun magazine I mentioned back here and I’m pretty happy with the result.  They’re quite easy to make so if you’re still tossing up whether to join the Challenge or not, I can guarantee, this one only took me about an hour to make, so it’s definitely NOT too late to join….just leave a comment telling me and I’ll add you to my sidebar.

I must say, I am a little bit excited about this weekend, because I’m tripping off to Charters Towers on Sunday to meet the lovely and talented Jenny in ‘the real’!!!!   I just can’t wait….it’s a little like meeting royalty, don’t you think??   (now don’t get a swelled head there Jenny!!! hehehe).  I must make sure I have done all my homework and have my wire cut and fabric sorted before I get there….don’t want to be unprepared!!!!!

Hope the Full Moon Fairies all come and tidy your sewing rooms for you tonight  (don’t you just wish they existed???)

Hello sweet Wendy!!!

Ooh I love the photo of the moon - there was an eclipse last week, my son and I stood outside and watched it - very gorgeous and yes a wee bit eerie, too! I absolutely ADORE your stitchery - all done in blue and cream - so wintery and magical!

Wish I could be joining you and Jen up in CT this weekend - I'm sure you're going to have so much fun!

Hugs sweetie!!
Vikki xoxo :-)
