LUCKY WINNER

We have a lucky winner: Joyce! My DS put his hand in the bag and out came this piece of paper.
I will send Joyce some fabric as it seems that she loves them!


I want to thank you all for the nice comments you left on the last post. I hope to keep on sewing, knitting and reading lots of blogs for many years to come!


Last week I went to Ursel´s LQS. It moved to a bigger, brighter, nicer location with lots of big windows. If only I did not have to go to work, I think I could visit the shop everyday!


Anyway, of course I did not leave the shop empty-handed. I plan to make a it-bag (!) out of that lovely fabric.


Tomorrow is our monthly quilt group meeting. I hope to see many nice works there.

If only the snow would stop! You know what, I think I am getting allergic to snow! And in Australia it is much too hot. I wish I could send Carol some snow flakes with her yarn!

I wish you a nice week with mild weather!

NEW TEMPTATIONS

How is it that Christmas is already in 10 days and I haven´t seen anything of December yet?! What with bad weather, ill family members (DS and DH both sick with fever and heavy coughing), getting and/or making presents,...

Anyway, yesterday I took some time off to get some quality time going with a good friend of mine to the opening of a new yarn and quilt shop.

Christiane has made it! She now has a very nice shop with gorgeous yarn and fabric.




Of course I did some retail therapy but could not take any picture yet.


This week I knitted some presents for my dear sis: some mitts (modified version of Evangeline) and knee socks (my own pattern).



I just hope that they arrive on time in England. It is supposed to be so cold there (especially inside the house, isn´t it Sis? ) (Private joke!).


Now my DH has discovered a tam he would like to have for Christmas too so you know what I will be knitting next week!

I wish you all a nice third Advent.
