At last..

Hurray, I found out who my swap partner was today for the christmas table runner swap.  I cant wait to get started although I have some stalking to do first to make sureI get everything right.  I have been on a fabric purchase ban, which I have stuck to, with the exception of buying some fabric for the goodie swap.  Now I can legitimatley go out and buy some christmas fabric, yay!

I have done a pathetic amount of sewing since Sunday.

I made some wonky stars, which I discovered are very quick and easy to make after I ran a couple up for Judith at Rags to bags.  These will be made in to a little quilt which I intend to give to someone to take somewhere (more another time)

I have been doing a bit of knitting.  I have 2 of these done now


only about another 38 to go!! They are so easy to knit though and perfect for winter evenings knitting.

Jenny and I are off to Canterbury on Saturday to an open university day there: a big sacrifice as I am going to miss two amazing rugby matches on telly: Eng vs france and Ire vs Wales.  So to make up for that, I shall do some christmas fabric shopping whilst there, I'm sure there will be a fabric shop or two
