Christmas Crafting

I went to a sewing day at the beginning of December and attempted to make some mittens for the children for Christmas...I was not one bit happy with them..I have to remake them if they are ever to use them...I don't know if I want to do that. So, disheartened with all of that I decided not to make anything more for Christmas....famous last words!

In the last week or so I have made this lot..

For the two little girls, for treasures...(click on the photo for the link to the free pattern)


For CDs in Colm's car...


For T and his lego, most likely...


For Maeve...she is getting a little something for Christmas that should fit nicely in here...sorry, it's a secret!


My SIL asked me to make her a case for her specs...


I am not a great knitter, but when Realtin asked me in the local haberdashery, for the umpteenth time, to make her a fireman...well how could I say no....And how could I not make Blathin one too...


I also got a gift from my mother the other night, they're an early gift for Christmas..

...aren't they lovely! Thanks Mum!
