I took my inspiration from the photograph for the theme. I know Christmas is over but I'm actually feeling like I want to start getting ready for next Christmas!! In the summer I bought myself Tone Finnangar's Sew Pretty Christmas Homestyle because I just fell madly in love with the projects she makes. One of those projects is the most adorable vintage-style boots and ice skates. Well, not being a stitcher I thought I would be content to just gaze and "Oooh......Aaaaah..." my way through the book, but I wasn't! I dug my sewing machine out and had a go at a couple, then I did a couple more, until eventually lots of my friends found they had one in their Christmas stocking!! Then yesterday I came across the Tando blog and found their Ice White challenge so I decided to make this for the theme. It's the first Ice Skate I've made and I've discovered I'm going to need a touch more patience if I am to make more! LOL!!
Hope you like it! Thanks for stopping by! :o) xx
