It’s beginning to look a lot like……
Christmas….don’t you think?? I was surprised to see all the decorations and Christmas paraphernalia in the supermarkets and shops already!!!! But then, it IS only 68 days till Christmas!!!! EEK! So I thought I’d better get a wriggle on… Thank you Rosalie for this wonderful little book you’ve produced just in time to save me! This was one of my wonderful purchases at the Craft and Sewing Expo in Townsville a couple of weeks ago. I managed to stitch up the first of my Christmas gifties this afternoon and just have to put it together…..OOOOhh OPAM, fingers crossed, I’m going to be hooting through with a number of finishes this month and next!!!! wheeeeee!!!!!! I did have an excuse though…..we were getting our solar panels installed and the power kept getting turned off! And I’ve even managed to start my Christmas purchases….. this one’s for me…. A quilt stand I managed to find for $10 at the op shop. Well, it’s true…..charity does begin at home, doesn’t it??? hee hee. Have you started your Christmas stitching yet??? Sugary hugs xox :O)

Hi.....thanks for visiting and I'm glad you've stopped by to visit and leave me a comment. I'll try to reply each time, but if I don't, it's because I've been hijacked by the family.....know I've read it and it reeeeally warms my heart. *insert jiggly heart here*
sugary hugs :o)
