Merry Christmas

19/12/2016

Tadadada! here is my finished advent window. We celebrated its opening on the 16th with mulled wine and minced pies (self-bought in Salisbury :)). In the end, I managed to stitch up twelve Santas. Until Christmas Eve, each day another window will open. And all windows stay open until the 8th of January. Perfect for a winter walk. And, just a thought, wouldn't this be a perfect way to showcase embroidery projects from your embroidery or crafts group? The get together each evening is so much fun!

I am leaving you to your Christmas preparations with this wonderful view from my balcony this morning:

I love your Santa collection. Did you stitch them on the perforated paper or on cloth? I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous 2017 filled with many pleasant hours of stitching.

What a lovely idea. You have my head spinning for how I might adapt this concept for my living situation. Some people love angels, some snowmen--I love Santas! Yours are the best! Happy New Year!

(Slow to check emails lately due to new Miniature Schnauzer puppy appropriately named Jeffrey's Christmas Wishes aka Tinsel! She is napping now and I have 3 minutes!)

Happy New Year to you too, Julie! And to Tinsel as well. I must now get up and let Sammie in. I suspect he doesn't like to be out in the snow any longer than it takes to sprint down the cat stairs, find a place to pee and sprint back :).
