Merry Christmas and wrap up warm!

Here is a nice way to use those lacy bits and peices from the charity shop. Makeover your old gloves!
This designer has a lovely site full of accesories!
I love this and the pretty cosy hat!
Folkloric bag.
 
Cosy cardigan and scarf ,looks good with the ruffled skirt.

I like these kids in their peasant clothes especially the red shirt.
 
I am inspired to sew by this! The bag is great too
Hope you like these ideas and can use some in your sewing and crafting!
Not much time now for anything but having a jolly Christmas. My Mum who is coming to stay started my interest in clothes,fabrics etc and taught me  to sew. She will be 90 years old in the spring and she is still a sharp dresser and has a wonderful sense of colour.I can remember my Dad and Mum staying up late at night making our Christmas presents. Mum dressing dolls and Dad building model forts and garages . Money was not around for expensive presents but I was always so happy with my home made ones!
