Family Arrived

Before the family arrived today I managed to get two Healing Hearts made. Now I can get them in the post tomorrow.



DD2 and GC arrived late this afternoon. My GD1 and BF also called in to see their Aunt and city cousins. As it was a beautiful afternoon we all had fun playing cricket.

Even Pop got in on the act.

Micki's Giveaway

Micki from Irish Muses is having a lovely giveaway.    

 Pop on over and have a look.

All will be Revealed??

Tonight we had "Carols in the Domain" on tele.

 I spent a very pleasant evening listening to the

singing as I sewed. Completed my last two

Xmas gifts.

They are all wrapped ready for Santa to deliver them.LOL. Will post pics after xmas.There is also a BIG mystery  box in our garage.It appeared when I returned from Pertth this week. Niether DH or I have mentioned it so I THINK it is a Santa box. I suppose all will be revealed soon????? I can hear DD2 chuckle if she reads my post as I think she was in on the appearance of said box.

YES!!!

YES!!  I made it on time. Finished pressing at 11.55pm.
It's Friday and before I could get stuck into my "Sew In"

 I needed to tidy my sewing room. As you can see there is not much room to

work on the cutting table. Also I may need the ironing board so best clear that off too.

Finally I am ready to sew.

First I finished the binding on two small wall hangings. Then I hemmed a throw to use over the table on Xmas day. The flies can be very friendly in Aussie.

GD2 asked Santa for a new pillowslip for her "V" pillow.Amazing what we can find in our stash when needed in a hurry.

Do you think she will like what Santa is bringing her??

        

Lucky Me!!

This is a good time of year to collect the mail because I got a litttle card in the post box again today.

Two more parcels!! Lots of cards and the usual junk mail.

   Received a BIG parcel from my friend Nicky. I was very spoilt as she has made me a lovely wall hanging, some homemade jam, serviettes and a little Xmas box tied with a bow which I have put under the tree.

The second LITTLE parcel was also very special as it was my "INCHIE" swap from the Netherlands. I love it and have hang it in my tree. The card Francoise send along with it has a gorgeous Quilt on the front.

Red Hatters Xmas Lunch

We had a wonderful time at the Red Hatters Lunch. Joyce is the joker of the group and always willing to keep us laughing. Today she arrived with her hat wrapped in tinsel,baubles hanging of her ears and lots of bling.

The Crimson Butterflies from Geralton joined us and after a BIT of chatting we had a lovely meal.

Because we had all been such good girls this year Santa and his little elf arrived to hand out gifts to all of us.

Of course he had to wear his purple suit for this occasion!!Louise must have been extra good as she got a BIG kiss from Santa
