Having fun with Pinterest!

I've just joined the wonderful world of Pinterest!  Thought it might add a little cheer to these freezing cold January days...it looks like its going to be quite good fun and a time thief!  I have created a couple of  boards since last night and will just keep adding pictures from the web that I like the look of.  I would love it if any of my friends on here would like to follow me on Pinterest or just have a look and see what I am up to!  The button is on the top right hand side of this page.

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas!

Just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you, my lovely customers, friends and family for a great 2011.  Thank you for continuing to choose to shop at The Homespun Loft and I wish you all 

A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Hope to see you all next year

 Love my little snowmen!

 My White House Tree, I love all these ornaments from The White House, they have been sent to me over the years by my lovely friend Donna, who lives in Virginia not far from Washington.  A gorgeous collection which I treasure and I think deserve their own tree! 

 Stunning wooden blocks made for me by the very talented Sharon from Nosy Rosie Designs

Wishing you all a peaceful Christmas, may all your dreams come true.

Gingerbread House and other Christmas Goodies

Well I think its time to come out of my sewing room and show you what I have been making!  I've been a busy little crafting bee the last week or so and have made some new goodies which I hope will find wonderful new homes in time for Christmas....

I have made this very Christmassy hand quilted "Gingerbread House" wall hanging, each tab has been secured with a cute little iced Gingerbread button.  It measures approx. 20" x 24" (50 x 61cm)  and is for sale at £16.95 on my website The Homespun Loft

I have also made some matching smaller hangings below, measuring 12" x 12" (31 x 31cm) each priced at £10.95 which includes the wire hanger and mini wooden pegs

 

You might like these Primitive "Christmas Cat" wall hangings shown below.  They are only £8.95 each, including the wire hanger and pegs too.  They measure 9" x 9" (23 x 23cm)

 

 

Now for something slightly different...my homemade spicy mug mats.  I love making these, the house smells so good.  I am selling these for £5.95 per pair and you will receive them gift wrapped in ribbon and a cellophane bag.

  

Hope you have enjoyed taking a little peek...I'm back off to the sewing room :0)
