Some Lovely Things To Share

 As if I haven't been spoilt enough, Mel gave me these gorgeous gifts. I have the perfect spot for the NOEL blocks in the gap under the television where a dvd player should go. There was some pretty fabric and DMC threads.

 I had my eye on this book at the Patchwork Tea House when we were there last week. Lucky I didn't buy it 

as Mel already had a copy for me.

 Kris Kringle was very good to me this year too (twice). 

I got my first Tilda book. I've been seeing all the lovely projects being made by on-line friends. 

Have you seen Doodle Stitching, The Holiday Motif Collection? Oh my gosh! There are so many wonderful little stitcheries in this book. I already have Doodle Stitching, The Motif Collection but I think the Christmas one is even better. There was a bundle of Christmas fabrics too.

And look what I got for my second KK! Bonnie and Camille's Designer Select FQ Bundle of Miss Kate. What a lovely addition to my Bonnie and Camille collection.

Do you remember Austin's Christmas cake?
We cut into it on Christmas Day and straight away you could smell it. It was very moist and full of fruit. I don't eat fruit cake myself but from all reports it was delicious.

The power went out for a couple of hours yesterday.
Oh no! No xbox! 

It's amazing how much fun can be had by playing
a board game. In case you're wondering,
that's Austin's lovely girlfriend, Paris

What was I doing when the power went out?
I was on a roll putting my FQS BOM together. While waiting for the power to come back on I pinned everything I could and marked my lines on the 100 squares ready for making the flying geese blocks. Hopefully, I'll get back to it today.
