for Marilyn.......

It's trimmed.....sorry it wasn't done when you were here the other night.

....now I need to deal with the Christmas cookies.

I found Mr. Whipstitch........

....and boy was he dusty. It's cleaning time here now that the sewing is done for a few weeks. I finally cleared my dining table which has been a work table 24/7 for the past 5 months and there he was. Hiding behind piles of wool and baskets of tool and boxes of patterns...it's good to see his face again. He's nice and clean now, however, I have been getting a few complaints from some of the other residents.

The little rag doll in the photo above seems to be having an asthma attack because the dust is so thick up there, the dogs look like they are turning grey. And then there is Jolly in the photo below who looks like he's got a frosting on his hat and shoes.....hold tight, kids. I'll be there with the vacuum soon.

The tree still isn't trimmed...the "Hookers" ( our little rug hooking group) are coming Tuesday night for our annual Christmas get together. Though I think I need another month to clean the way I want to , I only have another day to get it all done and bake a birthday cake. So, till I'm done...................

Candy Cane Santa

....my last special order and of course, I messed up the face so I'm starting from scratch. I'm not a very patient painter, I prefer to use a needle and thread. When I outlined the eyes last night I used a MicroPigma Pen and when I sealed the face it ran. I'll be happy when this is done and he's on his way. I'm itching to start making some new pincushion designs.

I guess I should get started on a new face, then maybe I can trim the tree which has been sitting in it's stand since the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.

To You and Yours

It's that Holly Jolly time again.....

I'm sitting here with a second cup of java waiting for some cotton batting to dry so I can finish my creation for the TEA Webshow November 24th. There are little bodies in the oven...I hope I don't burn them, I still have another show Thanksgiving weekend.

It's very cold here in the Northeast today, they say we may have some lake affect snow......the Christmas music is cranked up and I need to get back to the sewing machine.

So, til next time............
