MY FIRST MONTHS COMPLETED


 This was a very fast and easy project and I can see there will be some more. I added the little motifs to add a bit of bling.

I had to make the shoe bag as I will be using it this week when I take my GDs home and leaving DH home for a bit of peace and quiet.

Hi everyone, isnt it great to be starting another Stitch-a-long for this year. I like it that we have smaller projects this year and many of mine will become gifts for family and friends. I have also decided that all projects this year will be fabrics from my stash to cut down costs. 
Bye for now Jude from judesstuff.
