christmas sewing

having been so encouraged by how well the advent calendar went, i set about making something with my little tree patchwork squares, (having had no idea what i was going to turn them into whilst i was actually making them), 


a pair of Christmas pillows, 


made using some greenish scraps & some cheapo cream ikea cotton


a tiny amount of hand sewing & backed with some green amy butler fabric


all coming together to make me (& my sofa) very happy


now i'm off to finish my glass of warm winter Pimms & stare lovingly at the Christmas tree
