My husband is busy decorating the yard for Christmas. Knowing him, he’ll work on it every day until Christmas eve, making and adding new things as he goes.
I haven’t begun to put up decorations inside yet but I’ve spent some time making a couple of new things.
I wanted a new little table topper banner like the two previous holiday ones I made this year. I really didn’t care for the machine applique JOY kit in the Riley Blake series so I searched for a banner I liked better.
This one on Etsy felt just right! I added a little to the top and bottom so it finishes at the same size as the other two, 12″ x 14″. I just needed to buy one FQ of fabric for the wreath so I spent about $35 less than I would have by purchasing the kit. 🙂
As luck would have it, I had just enough Christmas poinsettia fabric left to use for the backing from the log cabin Santa craft I made at my guild’s workshop last month.
With 70 pieces in this block, the wreath wasn’t easier than the other two, which also had a lot more pieces than I would have expected!
I also made a wall hanging that I had hoped to do last year but ran out of time.
I have more things I’d like to finish before the month is over. It’s such a busy month that I may need a few elves to help get them done in time.
