Cat's Tilda Christmas Swap


I know! Aren't they adorable!

Part of a beautiful gift from Leonie, via Cat's Tilda Christmas swap.

The brief was to make a Tilda Christmas ornament, add a dash of haberdashery, edible treats and a little something else especially for your swap partner.

Clearly Leonie did her research!


Piles of fabric in my fave colours

Chocolate galore


Gorgeous crafty bits and bobs


A special little craft pack for Claudine

A little something for mother of the child at the upcoming Brit themed birthday party


Tiny ickle Eiffel tower earrings
 Already debuted at French fest, and the cutest addition to my Eiffel tower collection


Tins :0)

Yep, you've pretty much ticked all the boxes there Leonie, I'm couldn't be more delighted!

(hope I didn't miss anything, the box was so packed with goodies?!)

Until christmas, when the tweet tweet birdies will be strung and hung, they're are hanging out at Clauds pad



So cute, and with year round charm

(only 4 there as Claud has already stashed one somewhere *rolls eyes*)

and in return..?



     Not quite so expertly stitched but very cool (yes, that means everyone I know will be getting one!).
   From (a kinda tricky for this sewer of little brain to follow so she made most of it up) pattern in this Tilda
                                            book and op-shopped fabrics and ribbons.

   (I forgot to photograph the rest as Claud had staged a last minute raid on the box which I needed to
   straighten out *rolls eyes, again*)

                                                           Christmas swaps rock!

  3. Oh and PS: the cup and saucer are apparently Crown Lynn - seems Crown Trent and Lynn are now the same?? Not sure but I also know it's not colour glaze so hopefully it can find a place in your collection :)

  5. Oh wow, lovely lovely things - I adore Christmas decorations so would have been thrilled with either Leonie's birdies or your ornaments, so pretty. (Claud's bedroom looks really pretty too)
