Gaver

I've been making more quiltystuff!! Earlier this week I bought this AnnAKa pattern "Gaver" (translated means "Gifts") from Lapp-Elisa - an online quilt store in Sweden. I loved this scarf, and had recently seen something similar at a Christmas craft market in Woodbridge. I searched through my stash, and found this burgundy fleece, which went perfectly with this collection of Lecien fabrics (I bought those last year at the Autumn Quilt Festival at Chilford).....

.....I used a walking foot to make this, as sewing with fleece can be more than a little bit tricky! I even managed to add one of my labels  - I stitched it in the seam where I joined two pieces of fleece.....

.....and here it is completed - a perfect fit! I may be missing in action over the next few days as I'll be busy baking mince pies and sausage rolls, wrapping and delivering presents and even maybe doing a little bit of hand-stitchery.
