December, the final month of the year. I can’t quite believe it.
On the stitching front I don’t have a great deal planned.
The main priority is to remove all the foundation papers from the Wensleydale Quilt blocks and get them stitched together into a flimsy. I’m rather looking forward to playing with this one.
I have a little secret stitching to still complete, but that won’t take too long.
The blue and cream linen top needs to have its extension created, so I can actually wear it, once the weather finally decides to become summery. I do hope it works out.
On the non stitching front, who knows?
We do have to get our Christmas decorations up very soon. They should be up by now, but we have both been a bit otherwise occupied.
We would like to sneak in a couple of Christmassy outings. If they happen they do, but if they don’t it doesn’t matter.
I bought a few Christmas themed novels at the recent Lifeline Book Fair, so would like to read at least one.
While I’m at it, check out their beautiful Christmas tree. This was used for Santa photos, which would be so much nicer than some of the ones you see.
Christmas Day will be rather low key. It will be a very different day, being the first one in 60 years without seeing my Mum. Obviously, Mick will miss his Mum too.
In that rather strange few days between Christmas and New Year Mick will be glued to the tele, watching the Boxing Day Test of cricket.
I will keep up my new tradition of completing a jigsaw puzzle. I came across another quilt themed one earlier in the year, so it has been placed at the top of the queue.
Oh, and I am receiving a nice Christmas gift. I’m a tad excited. More on that as the time arrives.
