One Project a Month for 2021 and my January Finishes

Kris from Tag Along Teddies is once again hosting One Project a Month (OPAM) which I have been joining in on since 2009. It is such a good motivator for me and I'm very happy it is continuing this year.
If you would like to join in as well, click on the link above, read all about it and then contact Kris to join the fun.

I have two small finishes to start off the year.
Firstly, I finished off the little Christmas decoration I started last month.  This is also my Christmas make for the month - little, but better than nothing.
My second finish was a spur of the moment make.  This cute pattern popped up on my screen and I decided to make it there and then. It is made from 2 1/2 inch squares and took no time to make.  I needed two buttons.  I was looking through my buttons with no luck when I remembered a cute jar of buttons my friend Lou had given me a few years ago.  How perfect are the fabric covered ones.  They were made for it.  It was fun finding some of Mum's old cotton reels that matched perfectly as well.

I have done plenty more stitching through the month and will share in the next day or so.
