Just a brief post to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, and all the best for 2012. Thanks especially to all who commented on the previous post - the bags are in their envelopes waiting for me to go to the post office, early next week.
I had an email conversation recently with the
Littliest Thistle, Katy, about embroidery (have you seen the blocks she embroidered for her dad's quilt gorgeous) and mentioned that I hadn't done embroidery by hand for ages - sorry Katy I lied, look what I just found . . . my Christmas Cross stitch project
Sister In Law gave me this years and years ago, and I work on it a little bit each Christmas. When finished it will go into a house shaped frame, a bit like a dolls house
The other part of the post title may be explained by this photo of my kitchen
We planned to move the kitchen around sometime, but it would appear that NOW is the time. Although to be fair, these is never much danger of a Christmas dinner at my house - we graze all day instead!
Merry Christmas ALL!!!!
You lied?! Hock, shorror! So, err, how many years have you been working on this? I'm just trying to work out how long it'll be before I see the final thing ;o)
ReplyDeleteHappy kitchen moving/grazing!
And Merry Christmas to all :o)

Oh Benta - how could you have such a perfect holiday and return to that? I shall have to give it a go next year if it means no cooking!!
ReplyDeleteHappy times to you and yours Benta xx
I'm not sure that I'd have the patience to have the house covered in Christmas decs and a kitchen move to contend with! I hope that your day of grazing was merry and fun filled and that you are well on the way to having the kitchen of your dreams!
