Handmade Christmas: Fabric Decorations
Last year, I showed you all the Christmas Tree decorations. This year, it's the turn of the fabric decorations. There is quite a bit of Christmas bunting around the house but found it difficult to get a good photograph, so you'll have to imagine how pretty it looks!
I did make some shelf bunting for the mantlepiece in the lounge.
The tree is in a different position this year, which gives us a bit more room but big downside is I can't easily get to the knitting books in the case behind it!
I made a Christmas quilt that comes out a lot earlier than the rest of the decorations (at the start of Advent). It was hand pieced from lots of Christmas fabric scraps and machine quilted with a radiating star.
The most recent addition to the tree is a wee cheesy Christmas jumper - decorated with beads, sparkly thread and embroidery. The mini coat hanger was a struggle to make but it had to be done.
Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year!
These handmade christmas decoration ideas are wonderful, especially the mini sweater, looks very cute and absolutely fun to make. BTW, thanks for the share :)
