ah I do miss the dance recitals! Both of my girls danced for years. So glad you were there to see GD dance. Love your hand stitching!

with only boys I have never had to do the dance recital thing, sounds like you have enjoyed all the 'city' activities. Love your christmas hexie and your stars are great. Lovely that the gum nut babies like stars as well as hexies.
Your christmassy blog make over looks gorgeous.
