Hi all - hope you had a good Christmas and wish you and yours all all the very best for 2023
I know some of my visitors have had a bit of a rubbish 2022: please know I'm thinking of you, and hope that things improve or get manageable 💗
My December in pictures:
A few Christmas gifts were created
A class of Christmas napkins was taught
some Dachshunds were embroidered
Lots of Gingers were embroidered
The La Passacaglia rounds were taken apart and added to tote bags instead
Some uniforms were embroidered
A quilt was made for a customer (I know the name is at a strange angle, but it's so it reads right when it is used as a wrap ... and isn't being photographed in a mirror!)
A baby quilt was made for a friend's first grandson
A knitted Queen was received (isn't she great!), thank you Debs
And a conical peg bag (love this), thank you Jane
A Christmas tree was put up and decorated
And Christmas Lunch was enjoyed by all
Slippers were received (in a fab hexie box)
Hair was styled by little miss 8, thank you Nina
Hat and gloves were received, thank you Deb
Mr Nutcracker was received and created, thank you Jackie
But sadly at the end of Christmas we lost this lovely lady: as she would say, she was my first husband's mother!
She was 95, her lower limbs were more metal than bone, she hated having to rely on carers, and she's been asking us to bring her a gun for the last 5 years . . . I think it's safe to say she was ready to go.
Rest in peace Mrs Hickley xxx
