We had our annual craft Fayre at My DH's work place on Tuesday, so I was quite busy getting my contribution ready for it all last week.
I belong to the knitting group and our challenge was to make miniature stockings just big enough for a chocolate. I managed 4, which doesn't sound very many, but they take about 2 hrs each by the time you've sewn them up and made the hanger.
For my own table I made a patchwork cushion with the patchwork packs that I've been selling on my Etsy shop.
It worked well as I sold 3 packs when people realised that they could make a whole cushion front with the 25 squares, relatively easily, and it was nice to see them get excited about having a simple, pleasing textile project to get their teeth into.
I also made a couple of small FME pieces, having been inspired by the Talking Threads program that's been on Sky TV recently.
Too much watching Meerkat Manor on TV
And a couple more pieces went off for Chrismas presents too, which was nice.
At last!! I finished my socks!!
