Xmas in July Gift



Thanks Julie, for the amazing Xmas in July gift - so many wonderful goodies packed into a cute little Christmas suitcase!

Julie spoiled me with some great patterns, a book, a sewing kit, a ceramic coaster and lots of other goodies.

I don't seem to have accomplished much the last few days. I have been flitting from one thing to another and not really accomplishing anything, it feels like.
My friend Lyle has bought a new sofa so has asked me to make him two new cushion covers to cover some lovely, plump inserts he has bought. I am still mulling over designs. He likes traditional Japanese fabrics of navy, black and red, like those below. The sofa is quite a dark colour though so I want to incorporate a lot of cream or white.
