Welcome back to part 2 of my Christmas Table Display! (part 1 available here)
I've had great reactions to my Christmas display in my classes this week.
I hope you enjoy reading about them too!

This is one of my newest patterns available for general release!
It is a 'charm pack friendly' project, but the pattern also includes yardage quantities to make the runner in 3 feature fabrics.
I've seen my runner made in non-Christmas fabrics (I love seeing different interpretations of the same pattern!), and I have this variation done in Retro 30's prints hanging up in class.

This is another 'Eco Friendly' way to 'gift wrap' a smaller present. Waaaaay nicer than paper which gets torn up and thrown away!
I've made so many of these easy peasy bags, housing sweet jams or chutneys, sumptuous bubble baths and creams or decadent chocolates and liqueurs!
So if you want to 'upgrade' a small gift into a 'wow' gift, give my drawstring gift bags a try!

The link above is to the Easter Egg version of these pouches, but simply draw a circle instead of an egg and follow the same tutorial.
If you know someone who prefers money or gift vouchers (or diamonds!) pop them into this compact pouch. The addition of a key-fob attachment turns it into a useful little coin purse!
Then hang them on the tree, or stuff into stockings and wait for the smiles!

These 5" Christmas themed coasters are made using the foundation paper piecing method and are great for using up small Christmas scraps!
I first saw them here, but the link to the maker's website is no longer available.
However, if you are attending my classes, I can easily take you through the making of these!

This fun tree skirt forms part of our class project this term.
The pattern is by my talented quilty friend, Reene, and you can read more about this project here.
Well I hope my Christmas table display and projects has fueled your Christmas inspiration and motivation!
With less than 8 weeks to go til the big day, I guess we'd better get our sewing machine 'skates' on!
Happy sewing!
