Finished Christmas Quilts

I wanted to take some pretty photos of my all finished quilts today while I was off work (and had natural daylight for the first time this week) but the weather turned out to be absolutely terrible and it might as well have been night time it was so dark here, so I am so glad that Chris has been out earlier to buy a daylight bulb, this thing is awesome!

First up is Felicity's Big Sister 9-patch;



And then Baby Hannah's Not-So-Mystery Mix Tape;




Two partially matching quilt for two sisters, now just to wrap them up and let them finally go home!

Santa Bee

An early christmas present arrived this week from a very secretive little santa-bee



My package was so prettily wrapped, I took plenty of photos (and before I start, please excuse the terrible lighting on iphone photos taken at night time!)


Anyone recognise santa's handwriting? and lookie here...


... TWO layers of gift wrap!



Thank you, thank you, thank you secret santa I love my pretty tree decorations and pouch- I showed it to Chris and he couldn't believe it was handmade!

I have my suspicions as to Santa's secret identity, but I am not revealing here, any guesses welcome in the comments section and I will let you know if I agree.
