Show & Tell...

Some very lovely ladies have sent me photos and blog links showing how they've taken an Elefantz design and made it their very own!

I love seeing these projects and I know you do too, so sit back and enjoy this season's Show & Tell.

There were a few sweet Vintage Kitchen's completed by Maria, Jo and Ondrea... 

...and three of the blocks made into pretty pot holders by Agueda.

Look at these lovely Hussifs made by Eveline and Kaylee...

Other lovely projects pics came from Alison, Christine, Donna, Helen, Kalli and Nita...

I'm sure you're as inspired as me after seeing their handiwork!
Thank you for sharing these photos, girls. x

As today is the beginning of a fresh new week, my prayer is that each one of you will find the next seven days blessed with quiet times to sew, beautiful thoughts to ponder, and joyful moments to treasure in your heart...

Hussifs and an Owl - a show and tell!

Did you make a Hussif from my set of tutorials?

If not, you may be inspired by these Hussifs! 

Lovely readers sent me photos of their creations recently and they are so varied that I found myself wanting to make a lot more of them too!

You'll find my 5 part tutorial to make your own Hussif HERE.

Here are some other Elefantz projects you've been making. 

Cindy followed THIS sewing caddy tutorial of mine, and added an orphan stitchery of her own...

...and Gabriele used one of last month's Stitchery Club patterns to fill the centre of a table runner! 

Teresa is keeping up with my free Vintage Kitchen BOM blocks...

 ...and don't forget these BOM blocks are still a free download HERE in my shop.

Thanks for sharing your project photos, ladies!

Would you like to make an OWL pincushion??

My very clever friend Heather has just shared a wonderful tutorial for her free pattern!!

Head over HERE to her blog and you can sew your very own Parliament of Owls today!

Be sure to leave a comment and say thanks, 'cause that's the polite thing to do.

I need to make a few...or more.

What YOU have been stitching!

It's about time for some Show & Tell don't you think?

Here's what some sweet ladies have been sewing from my tutorials or stitchery designs recently -

My simple sewing caddy tutorial has been incredibly popular and what a blessing to find them popping up all over pinterest and blogdom!

You'll find the tutorial HERE...

And we have more sparrows...

(free design HERE)

...plus pretty  Vintage Kitchen blocks!

(free patterns HERE)

And a few other Elefantz designs that have been made personal and pretty!

Thanks for sending me your photos, girls! I love seeing what you've been making for yourself from Elefantz projects...

Last post of the year, plus Show & Tell...

Thank you to every one of you lovely readers who regularly visit each day to peek behind the doors of Elefantz and see what's happening in my funny and changeable little world.

You are the inspiration that keeps me creating and sharing what I learn along the path of no-return-crafting!

Bless you so very much this Christmas season, and I hope to see you in 2015 as the doors swing wide at Elefantz to embrace "A Year of Gentle Domesticity". I think we'll all have a life changing and exceptionally fun journey ahead of us.

This is my last blog post for 2014, so I'll leave you with a card I've made 'just for you' from my beloved Mr E and I, and below it you can swoon over the final show & tell photos you've emailed me this year. They're just beautiful!

The final Show & Tell of 2014...

See you next year for...
