My contribution to the Festive Fun is some charity sewing for a hospice Christmas Fayre.
First I made 18 reusable gift bags from a double duvet and pillowcase set. Some bags are a simple drawstring style and others have a boxed base with a cardboard insert to give more structure.

Then I made several tree decorations using a variation on EPP and were made by tacking fabric to hexagon papers, folding each in half and then sewing three hexagons together.

I included ribbon for hanging and added some beads and bells to given them some weight to help them hang.

Everything I made sold at the Fayre, so I think I will be on the look out for another festive duvet set in the sales to make more next year.
