A whole new theme

Hello! Welcome back, we hope you are enjoying 2016 and are ready for a new challenge!

There are things...

source

you could move or travel...

simply a shape...

or you could buy us one ;)

The theme for this month is ROUND.

Quite a simple starting theme for the year and we hope you will come up with some clever and different interpretations as always! 

Anyone can join in, using any medium and create a finished project based on the theme 'ROUND'.

The link will open 14th February and one person will be chosen by random to win a $25 gift certificate to the Fat Quarter Shop and a $10 gift certificate to spend at Eco Fabric Store or Fibers To Fabric.

If you are new to le challenge please read these guidelines.
Use the hashtag #lechallenge on social media to show us what you're working on.

We are happy to return and always enjoy seeing your projects. Nat and I have worked hard creating our own projects for le challenge each month and while we plan to continue there have been personal changes and we both have lots of other commitments in our lives. After discussing it we agreed that we will take some of the pressure off ourselves by perhaps not always having our own projects to link up, we hope you understand and will continue to be inspired to take on the challenge!

Le Challenge #28 - SPACE

Hello! Thank you for joining us at what is such a busy time of the year for so many! We are looking forward to seeing your interpretations and 'space' makes.

Lucy made some space on her sewing desk at Charm About You

Nat made a vintage inspired pincushion and a tutorial here. 

Link up your finished project based on 'SPACE' below for a random chance to win a $25 gift certificate to Fat Quarter Shop and $10 to spend at Eco Fabric Store or Fibers To Fabric.

Initial thoughts??

Le Challenge #22 - WOOD

It's been over two years since the start of le challenge. Nat and I have made projects for every theme during that time and, even if it was a little late, we always make something to show you in the post where you link up your finishes. I'm impressed with us. 

Life can get in the way though and Nat will be skipping this month because she and her littlest have been poorly. She's doing better now and will be back in the game for the next challenge :)

So here's what I made:
