Inspirations Calendar | December Project

2021 has been quite a year. It has had its highs and its lows, tough times and good. It is almost hard to believe we have come through it all and we’ve almost reached the final month of the year.

December is simultaneously the start of the ‘silly season’, filled with gatherings, parties and celebrations, along with the last run towards the end of the year with all of the possibilities of the new year in store.

The calendar project for December is, most appropriately, Christmas Spirit by Betsy Morgan.

Betsy’s intricate counted designs constructed into diminutive boxes, etuis and accessories are always popular, and this project, which originally appeared in Inspirations issue #104 is no different.

Christmas Spirit is adorned with Christmas trees and festive motifs with a tiny needlebook and a neat scissor sheath and fob inside, all stitched in jolly Christmas colours on pristine white linen.

As sad as it is to see the end of our 2021 Calendar, our new 2022 Calendar is packed with even more inspiration and stitching goodness ready to kick off the new year.
