Scented Christmas cushions




These sweet little cushions smell of cinammon and star anise. I made them from a kit I found at Panduro Hobby. Right now they are hanging as a nicely scented decoration on my front door, hopefully making the postman smile.

Wool mittens

Wool mittens lined with fleece. I made these last winter, when the temperature was freezing and the snow lay deep. I didn't use any pattern, just the size of my left hand.

Lucha Libre meets Victorian lavender sachet!

This is a crazy project I made for my friend who loves Lucha Libre. Probably the ugliest lavender sachet you ever laid your eyes on, but it smells lovely and I have grown the lavender in my own garden. The stitching pattern is from Jenny Hart's sublime stitching. I hope my friend will appreciate my sense of humor ;)

Earrings for yarn lovers :)

These are not quite finished yet. I made them from toothpicks, some scrap yarn and salty dough. They came out very cute!

This year I had time to make a few Christmas cards!

Elfin booties



For that special Christmas feeling I made a pair of tiny elfin booties for my nephew.

My first patch work project

This small blanket came out fine I think! I've made it as a Christmas gift for one of my nephews. The backing is dark blue fleece and there are only two layers. I would love to quilt, but I wasn't sure of my skills.
