and then indulged in some pure and simple stitch therapy with the remaining scraps ...
I have no plan for this, but it was fun.
Likewise, Don's decorating has no purpose beyond the sheer pleasure of gazing ...
with something to see wherever you look, whether up ...
or down ...
My assigned duties are decking the mirror with bells ...
the dry sink with crèches (two sets worth) ...
and then we trim the tree together by turns ...
Now all we need do is await the arrival of kids and grandkids to make it all the more worthwhile.
Festive, welcoming and fun- best kind of Christmas magic!
ReplyDeleteLiz, I pray that you and Don have a blessed Christmas with your kids and grandkids. All your stitching is so sweet. Sending a great big hug.
ReplyDeleteIt's all so merry! What fun for your family to discover jolly surprises all about. Maybe your crazy quilt piecing is the beginning of next year's new handtowel?
ReplyDeletelooks magical and wonderful Liz - I am especially fond f Santa in a hot air balloon. And the leftover scraps for stitching...enjoy the celebrations together!

ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas on a hot night at nearly 4am from here in the Land Down Under!
ReplyDeleteI love your log cabin guest towel, but I especially love the crazy quilt scraps. They remind me of your aerial landscape quilt. Your decorations make your house so festive and welcoming. I hope your Christmas was very merry.
