One week to go!

first snowman of this winter!
Christmas is only one week away. WOW has this Fall and early winter ever passed fast. We are just starting to have snow sticking around to make it feel more seasonal! My shopping is all done and I just have a couple little projects to finish up and then the wrapping and I will be ready!

I have kept Christmas simple this year. The gifts are well meaning and come from the heart(or my hands). This year the season has been filled with longing  and sad sentiments. It is hard to put up the tree with all those ornaments we have collected over the years, remembering that a big part of my life is no longer here with me but trying to keep his memory alive as well. 

one done one to go
Nat's quilting is super
                                                                    And so I keep busy whether shovelling snow, I got to make my first snowman of the year, curling and visiting with my sewing/knitting buddies. I spent the other day with a friend Natalie and she long arm quilted a  quilt for me. I have been to her house twice this winter and each time it snows! Starting to wonder about taking my PJs next time!! She is helping me clear out old UFOs that are finished tops but just need to be finished quilts.

No time to be typing away on here. Checked in with
Kathy
and now to go and do my own slow stitching to get things checked off my list!

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! just in case I skip or miss a couple of weeks. 

Getting it done!
