1 Xmas Item A Month

~  Christmas  2013  ~

It's never too early to start ... is it?  If you found yourself wishing for more time to make handmade goodies for Christmas then this may be the group for you.

Come along and join our band of crafty elves as we make at least 1 item each month to be put away ready for Christmas 2013.  The item can be for yourself to decorate or be used ... or a gift for giving.

The rules are simple:

#1 ~  Make your item and post about it on your blog on the 25th of the month (or atleast by the end of that month). Then let me know and I'll add a picture to my '1 Xmas Item' page.

#2 ~  No stress allowed  :o)  Skipped a month? No problem ... it's never to late to join in.

I have been through the list on my sidebar and placed a   next to those who have already let me know that they will be joining in again this year so thankyou  :o)  If I haven't heard from any others by the end of January I'll just remove the link.  (Please let me know if I missed you and accept my apology, I blame this heatwave for my foggy brain)

If you are new and would like to join in this happy little group just let me know in your comment and I shall add your link to the list.

Happy Sewing and may your year be filled with finishes!

  8. Narelle, it just occurred to me that I will be able to use my participation in this, to finish some projects that I started very late in the year & did not have a hope of finishing for Christmas!
    See you throughout the year!
