WOYWW...

It's been another busy week here at Sewing by Annie's [but what's new I hear you say].  My desk has seen lots of activity so here's a few snaps of what's been going on here in between my alterations/repairs.



My orders for Memory bears have been coming in fast and furious [I still have a further 11 pending if they all turn up].  Here's the latest three I've made.  I really love the colour combo of these three.  They are wanted for three Granddaughters to remember their much loved Grandmother by.



I made named hangers for the Christmas stockings and used my poppers to attach them.....so they just need filling with goodies before handing them over.






I then made a start at the toppers to go on my Christmas cards....I've wadded them all and sewn round each one with machine embroidery.


I then made a few more in a different colour way.....I think that's about 32 in total so far so still got lots more to make yet but at least it's a start.

That's all from me for today.  If you leave me a comment I will do my best to pay you a return visit in between my sewing jobs.
Hugs,
Annie x

Gosh you have been busy - those Christmas cards are going to be really special - love the idea of the stitching and padding.
Love the Christmas stockings and what a lovely idea to make pop on names for them all - a riot of colour there Annie.

Hi Annie, I agree, fab colours in the bears. Those fabric panels are coming out beautifully too. Much improved today, I'm sure being at home and able to have decent coffee is helping! Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #1 X

I'm not sure you can use the phrase "that's all from me", when you clearly have a small team of craftspeople working round the clock to get all this done!
Such lovely work, and those memory bears conjure up a wonderful image of the Grandma who was fond of fuschia pink and leopard print!

Goodness, Annie, where do you find the time! Those bears are gorgeous - love the colour combination too. If I left my card making till now I'd be in a blind panic and no way could I make 30+ in such a short time. Have a great week. Hugs, Ellie x #16

You have been so busy and productive. There will be material winging its way to you for two more memory bears in due course once Alex and I have decided what we want for Gran's bears. I am loving all the festive designs as well. Happy WOYWW. Have a lovely week. With love & God Bless, Caro x (#10)
