Block One finished

I really enjoyed putting this one together, nice to get away from lots of embroidery. I never did find that missing pieced circle so I made another.
Hope all Aussies are having a great long weekend, the weather at the bottom of down under has been perfect.

BOMs and Applique

Which BOM's are you doing this year, freebies or purchased?
I'm well into block one of Gail Pan's new BOM "A Merry Christmas Garden"
I've used the glue stick method and applique paper from Hugs 'n Kisses to get the needleturn look. The applique pieces have been glued down and just need stitching on. There's also a piece that has gone missing and I have hunted high and low for it, think I'll have to make it again.
So tell me, which BOM are you doing?

Mojo Mojoing Along Nicely

This week I created a Winter White Lace Tag for a swap at An Altered Place. This was so much fun, I just kept adding bits until I was satisfied. It's currently winging it's way to Japan.
 
Elaine from Craftee Owls was far more organised than me and I received hers last week, it's gorgeous, Thank-you Elaine!

 
I also did a bit of "Off the Paging" and assembled this little drawer unit.
 
I love that my mojo has begun to flow these past two weeks.
 
I've even started Fee's Stitch A Long,

and I'm going to make every effort to do this each month, and I've already finished the first block.
 I'm using a charmpack from my stash of Northcote Range by Moda.
Will you be joining in?
