Holidays were wonderful and the beach was perfect as usual...actually the weather wasn't that great for the first week but perfectly glorious for the second. I had to come home for a few days in the middle to catch up on some work but it was still a lovely break.
Unfortunately all the sewing I had planned didn't eventuate but then it only makes you want to delve in again when at home.
I finished the santa I was making from the spotty fabric and there are a few more to do still. This little guy is already spoken for and off overseas soon. He is in traditional red but the funky spot gives him a nice little twist. The bell and buckle were custom made by Holly from Polymer Clay and his black wire wreath is threaded with red wooden beads.
What do you think? In this photo he's not quite finished, but you get the idea.Still trying to find the time to complete the small quilt, should be very soon though.
I hope everyone enjoyed making their Xmas Club patterns. All overseas members will receive their free gift pattern in November as the last Australian ones are sent. I haven't forgotten! It's really lovely...a surprise though for now!
I'll leave you with some shots of the coloured sands at Rainbow Beach. The day I took these the conditions couldn't have been better for photography. The sky was a deep solid blue.
My little fisherpeople.
Couldn't resist through the car window...still came out okay!
Almost forgot.....On the cover of Australian Country Threads magazine again with my birthday doll. 
Happy sewing
Deb
