in our family we have a particular love for robins. over the years we have made and given lots of robin themed gifts.
one year i made this stationary wrap for my dad using the robin photo i had taken.
my mum also asked my husband to learn to play this song 'Robin's Return' for her as a Christmas gift. (he is still learning it)
this week at our last children's sewing club we made robin brooches.
i have made an extra one to give away.
i also made a Christmas pudding.
and a tree.
they were fun to make and easy for the children too. i also made a reindeer which many of the children decided to make. my sample now adorns my new rapsberry red coat
If you would like to win the robin brooch please leave a comment at the bottom of this post. It is open to anyone and i shall draw a name at 7pm GMT tomorrow evening.
