Merry Christmas

Image
Merry Christmas to all. We have horrendous weather conditions here with lots of snow and difficulty to drive on the roads around the village. We'll have a nice family meal tonight and we are hoping to see Santa.... I have 2 Christmas finishes as I finished Baby Daughter stocking yesterday evening and my Christmas Table Runner. My last 2 OPAMs for this year! No pictures to post yet but hopefully soon. Enjoy the festive season! Celine

I haven't posted pictures of my framed hexies for a little while, so here you are! A lovely geisha I received from Geniene in October: A very elegant fan I received from Vicki in November: A watering can I sent to Diane in November: Only 4 sleeps until Christmas... will stocking #2 be finished on time? Until later, Celine

Baking tonight

Tomorrow is last day at school before the Christmas break so we have been baking some Lebkuchen with Big Boy to give a few to the teacher and assistant as Christmas presents. Celine

Christmas sewing

Image
Two years ago I made a Christmas stocking  and present bag for Big Boy, finishing the bag on Christmas Eve. I had bought lovely patterns from New Zealand, all applique is done with Bondaweb. When we decorated the house last week we got them out with the other Christmas decoration. And I decided that although at 22 months, Baby Daughter doesn't mind so much not having her own Stocking, I would try to make her one before Christmas. So that was my project for yesterday Sewing In night. I got as far as cutting the stocking and sewing the front together. This wasn't too bad considering how late I started. I will try to cut the pieces on Bondaweb tonight as I would really like to finish the front of the Stocking by tomorrow evening, watch this space! Celine
