Friday Freebie - Gift bag topper with gift tags and Vintage Mother cross stitch

Hi everyone, its Friday Freebie time!

Framed at last!

Finally, my framed cross stitches were ready to collect after months of waiting!

Summer stitching and crochet, plus mini quilt swap.

Hi everyone, I have been doing lots of different things over the past few weeks, I have managed to stitch a little more on this Summer project, I have not much to do on this and then it will be ready for framing.

Mini Quilt Swap and Shrink Plastic Gift Tags

 Hi Everyone, I am currently signed up for a mini quilt swap from Cherylls Blog over at Gone Stitching here this is the mini quilt I sent to my partner Sue over at The Jersey Scrapper Blog here

Gift bag topper and update re Mother.

Hi everyone,  this is my Freebie Friday post a few days late, I could not get access to my blog last week, hence the reason for the delay.

I have been making some shrink plastic gift tags for part of a mini swap, I then decided to wrap them in a small gift bag and designed this gift tag topper to finish off.

The tags can be downloaded for free, just right click and save to your computer, print off and fold on the white line and staple to your cellophane bags at the top.

In my next post I will show how I made the cute gift tags using shrink plastic, I can't show them now because it will spoil the surprise for my partner in the mini swap.

Edited : You can now see the tutorial for the shrink plastic gift tags in my next post here 

Update re Mother's accident. 

Thankyou so much for all of the kind comments left for Mother, they were all really appreciated.

She is finally coming home on Wednesday of this week, yay!!! We were quite worried at one point but she is now on the mend. Mother is camera shy but here is a photo of her fractured wrist including bruises! She is temporarily walking with a frame until her hip is properly mended and there will be carers looking after her for 6 weeks but at least she is coming home, which I am truly relieved about.

Stitching news.

I have just sent a mini quilt for the mini swap,I am also working on a stitchery design at the moment to make a framed picture and I have been crocheting some squares for my first crochet cushion which should be finished soon. 

Happy stitching,

until next time!
