[ilove2patch]

I cut the shapes out of felt & glued them on! lol

[captainbovine]

cor what fabulous bunting, I love it!!

I've finished me puddings now oh and made a classic boob with some bondaweb....I stuck it to the wrong side of the bunny rabbit that I'd cut out for a blanket I'd made for my friend:_| I had to cut out the flippin' thing again...I hate that stuff I always get it wrong.

anyway, it's finished wrapped up and bagged ready for Christmas.

I'd have liked a thicker fleece to work with though.

Meant to tell you that Amy is a donkey again in the nativity at school. She lives in her donkey outfit so she is more than happy & this year she is a singing & talking donkey.lol

Amy on her birthday last week....in her donkey costume.

She was upset in rehearsals as everyone was laughing but they explained that it was because the was such a great talking donkey that people were meant to laugh at her antics. She was ok then.:-x

[hightara]

how cute is amy.......wants an amy:-x

maggie your bunting is just gorgeous, mmmm bought some xmas fat quarters, but i went on a felt fad  i think i might have gone overboard making deccies and a garland.

hugs to those who need them today, still think of you everyday RDW if you are reading...you get an extra big huggie :-x

Morning ladies, what yas up to today?

[stan3502]

Morning all.

Amy looks great Maggie, I am going to Kayshas xmas concert on Wednesday and this year she is an angel so gets to wear her white sparkly dress so is happy :-D(was a present last year and couldn't sit down cos of the box they put her in :^O).

Party in last night so am slightly cream crackered but need to be up to tidy as mostly men so the place looks like a small explosion happened.

Also if anyone can tell me where on earth my address book has got too I will be eternally grateful,wrote all the family and friends cards on Sat and went to post them and can't find the book at all (turned home and pub upside down).:-(

Morning Stan, do you not live in the pub? Bunting didn't get done yesterday because a friend turned up with some trousers to mend and a bottle of wine. Wine was done, trousers weren't! 

[stan3502]

No Huggles, I lived in when the children were little and before I met Mr Stan, but once we got together there were 5 kids at home plus his mum so we moved into a new home with granny flat and his eldest daughter moved into the pub accomodation.

Over the years the children left home and we bought a house which is literally within sight and just a 2min walk from the pub.

Mr stan works shifts and pub life is great for little kids but not so fab once they are in secondry school for sleeping and homework quiet time.

[ilove2patch]

Morning all. I am off to a quilting groups Xmas Party at lunchtime in Poole.:-) It's always very good with a wonderful buffet tea, a fun speaker, raffle & patchworky things to buy.:-D Oh & mulled wine on arrival. Mt friend Annie is driving as I don't drive after dark.

[chickengrandma-2008]

Sounds like fun Maggie, and for once the weather is good to go! (Well, it is here, lovely and sunny so hope it is down there too)

Hope you have a great time.  Don't get toooooo drunk!;-)

[ilove2patch]

It's non alcoholic punch CG. lol The weather is lovely here too at the moment. It is held at Upton House, stately home type place & you have to walk through the grounds from the car park to the house so I hope it doesn't rain. 

[petitecalicocat]
