Catherine is organising a blogger charity book for the Christmas market. The book will be called Homepages and will consist of submissions from Irish Bloggers. The proceeds are going to Focus Ireland. I submitted a craft project to the book. I wanted to do something that would be easy and would fit into the theme of the book so I chose a handmade Christmas card as they come in the letterboxes of every-one’s home at Christmas. Here’s the finished product.
If you want to know how to make it, you’ll have to get your hands on the book when it comes out. Keep an eye on the book blog for updates. Huge thanks to Catherine for getting this together, it’s an amazing idea and I can’t wait to see it.

Hi R,
Nice to see you here, I’m a cross stitch fan myself. Although I prefer the bigger needles
