My new Christmas booklet "Petit Noel" is arriving from the printers tomorrow! I am so excited about it! It has 9 simple christmas sewing projects and would be perfect for Christmas in July groups etc. Many of the projects have been designed as little gifts which work well as Kris Kringle gifts for friends and teachers etc. I have been sharing pictures of it with you for a while now so I will Just show the cover this time. I have decided to do a Petit Noel give away! Just tell me your favourite thing about christmas in a comment on this post. I will choose 3 winners to each receive a copy of the new booklet. I will choose the winners on the 8th of June. Good luck!
Enjoy your creation!

Congratulations on your new Christmas booklet "Petit Noel"! It looks like so much fun!
My favorite thing about Christmas is getting together with family that I don't get to see the rest of the year.

Looks like a lovely new book :)
My favourite thing about Christmas is that we get together as an extended family - have BBQ's, spend time picking berries and many, many picnics on the beach! Yes, indeed, it's a summertime Christmas for us! LOL

Awesome idea doing a smaller booklet so we don't feel daunted. I love christmas mince pies for morning tea while all the family are together. The start of our day. Would love to win. Cheers Karen

I love everything about Christmas -- but mostly sharing in the excitement my son has over every single event leading up to Christmas!

I love all the baking and the hand made gift giving. What a great book for gift making. Even if I don't win I will be buying this one at the craft fair in Sydney when I get there.

That's tough. I guess what I like most about Christmas is that I take about 2 weeks off work during that time and spend it with my family.

Getting to spend some time with my family and eating way too many things I shouldn't eat.

Congratulations on your new book, this must be very exciting for you. I love Christmas time, there's school holidays, precious family gatherings, the way my girls faces light up when they received that much wanted gift, and christmas decorating, I try to add at least two new items to my tree and house for the christmas season, I really look forward to doing this!

Father Christmas comes to our house and he never forgets the adults. I love changing all my quilts over to Christmas wall hangings just so when "The Man" comes he feels at home and I love the festive feel it brings. And the family dinner at 40+degrees is fantastic.

Oh Rosalie I love Xmas so much I start decorating at the beginning of December & leave them up until Feburary. I have many Xmas decorations (my friends say to many)Ans even though it doesn't snow here at Xmas, I love snowmen, the handmade ones are the best. I'd love to win a copy of your new book.

My favourite part is getting ready. Sounds dumb, but it's true.

My favorite part about Christmas is decorating the house. I love the whole season, but that's my favorite part.

My favourite thing is running around with all the kids after the present opening and before the lunch!

What a lovely book, Congratulations.
Would it be ok to say my favourite thing about Christmas is the mince tarts?!
Of course I love the family time, and getting together.
But sitting in front of the Christmas tree with my cup of tea and mince tart on Christmas eve with the lights on, thats my favourite part!
Thanks, Mich

Ooooh, can't wait to get my hand on this one! Looks gorgeous.
My favourite part of Christmas is the Christmas Cheer. This should last ALL year. Oh, and how the children's excitement grows as Christmas day approaches.

Christmas is my favourite time of year, family, friends , good food and lots of pressies. My sentimental favourite is a knitted snowman I pull out each year, that my Nanna made for me a decade ago. She was a strong influence on my life and I smile everytime I look at it.
Congrats on your new book.
Posted by: Deb R | May 31, 2011 at 11:25 AM
I just love everything Christmas. The baking and food, decorating the tree, getting out all those little treasures that have been packed away, and of course family sharing all these things with me. All my stitched things around the house, just very precious.
Congratulations on your new book, I am sure it is filled with wonderful Christmas goodies.
