Christmas is not far away.

Hi everyone, 

Another week that flew by, but I have been busy, there always seems so much to do these days and no rest. But there you go I never get bored.

The week flew too, and we had no electric for two days, so on Saturday we went out for breakfast and when we got back it was all back to normal.

While out I took some Christmas photos for you to get into the Christmas mood.

But first I want to show you what I have been working on this week, it's an old SAL I started on a few years ago, I loved this one and when I dug deep into my boxes up it came.

                                      By CMon Monde called A LA BELLE E TOILE .

 


                      I could finish this one soon, if I stay with it but I do like to rotate!

I just found another box with some lovely stitching again, oh dear what will I do.

                                              I will have to think about it.

So far, the weather is good, so I have planted a few more bulbs and some are coming up already.

But if we do get a cold spell hubby brought me a Christmas blanket so cosy, now he is going to buy one for himself.   


                   You can almost feel the warmth. 

            So are you ready for a little Early Christmas, these are the photos I took at our local garden centre, when we had breakfast.

 













                     
lots of moving and singing ones just lovely for the children and us we still love Christmas.

Have a wonderful week the sun is out at the moment so that makes you feel happy.

  26. Hello June,
    I really like your new embroidery project, the gray fabric goes perfectly with it. The warm blanket will keep you warm whenever you want in the future and your photos from the garden center are stunning, not only the children will be looking at everything with bright eyes.
    I wish you a nice November Jutta

  28. Wow! Very nice to dream with the pictures of the garden centre. Your current cross stitch project is beautiful, but we know CMon Monde has fabulous patterns. I have a few blankets like yours. I feel too much cold, even if I like autumn and winter.
    Have a nice week end,
    Miriam

  29. What fun holiday photos you've shared with us, June--so many cute ideas! I'm at the stage where I'm really trying not to buy new Christmas things, but it sure is fun to look :) Love the beautiful piece you are stitching--I think you should stick with it and finish it up! I can't wait to see it.

    I'm glad you are still enjoying nice weather. Here it has turned VERY cold and we even had snow a couple of days. It's melted, but it was so pretty while it lasted. Enjoy your week, my friend ♥
