A "Sneak Peek" at Christmas.... From "Heidi Devlin Home"....

I know it may seem a bit early for "thinking Christmas",.... posting "holiday pieces in August ....but for those of us who are designers, artists, craftspeople & quilters, it is the perfect time!.....Many of us are well into the making of our "Autumn & Holiday" items! Our workshops, studios & even kitchen tables are brimming over with supplies,.... stacks of projects started.... & ideas filling the air! I am the first person to feel we must not "rush the seasons",.... but again if we didn't start early,... we would have nothing to offer all of you, who are eagarly awaiting to see the treasures we all have created!......

As for me, I am proudly posting the first of my lovely "Christmas Collection",... "quilted striped runners & sweet little pieces".....all available at heididevlin.etsy.com.....I will be adding a variety of stockings, both "felt appliqued & quilted",.... as well as tree skirts... & even Fall/ Winter pillows!.....There will be exquisitely hand-made ornaments, along with lovely napkins & table accessories! I have designed pieces that would not only be wonderful to have in your own home, but ones that you would be proud to give as "gifts" to very lucky friends!....I so hope you love what I have been creating!.....Old-fashioned pieces, that add "a bit of enchantment" to our everyday lives!.....I invte you to "take an early peek" at what "Heidi Devlin Home" will be offering this Holiday Season!.....And please don't hesitate to ask me about custom orders!.....I so appreciate your interest!
Two of my "Christmas Quilted Runners"......beautifully "classic".......
Another one of my "Christmas Quilted Runners"...this one with taupe & white stripes encased in a bright red binding!......& adorned with little silver bells!.......
These "Glittered Candy Canes" are actually one of my very favotite pieces!.....Being a generous size (12") they can be used in a variety of ways! They are darling "hanging from the branches" of a Christmas tree or tucked in placesettings as a lovely "gift" for guests... or my personal favorite, filling an old "crock" or earthenware bowl with these "sparkling beauties"!!!.....

This is my adorable "Elf Boot".... It is a three-dimensionable 6-inch boot, that can be filled with tiny "peppermint puffs or wee candy canes"!.....My 4 year old grandson Andrew, finds these absolutely fascinating!!...cannot put them down!
This "wee red stocking" is just the right size to tuck amongst the ribbon on a special package or again, ...hang as a sweet ornament!.......
Another little stocking in "winter white" & all "dressed-up" with a small taupe velvet bow!.....
And finally, my quilted "Christmas Hearts"!!!...These are all made from actual quilts...they are generous in size.....approx. 8"x10", & beautifully made! Every heart is a slightly different shape & each can be decorated in colors of your choice!......These are simply the epitome of "Christmas Charm"!......
Thank you for taking the time to see some of my first "Christmas pieces"! I am very proud of them all!.... & would love to have you visit my on-line shop to see the treasures that will be added weekly!.....If I can help you at all, or answer any questions, please just let me know!.....Here's to a wonderful "Autumn" & upcoming "Holiday Season"!.........Heidi (heididevlin.etsy.com)
