Hello

Christmassyness and Baublery

December 16, 2007




We have some Christmassy things to show you…. Some cute appliqued baby singlets, some cute handprinted Xmas cards, lots of gift tags from clever girls… and just look at the lovely baubly wreath the boys and Brooke made last week!
I’m working on the book today, and trying to work out when to get my Christmas gifts sorted out…. amidst the painting and the shopkeeping and stuff like that!
We had a fun time at the Perry St Festival yesterday – despite the wind and the cool and the hot! Friends of the Earth Cafe has the most hearty delicious food and the loveliest people too!

ps – keep adding those jokes to the post below! we all need plenty of cheesy cheer at this time of year!

    Dust if you must
    But would’nt it be better
    to sew a dolly,or write a letter,
    Make a card,or plant a seed,
    Ponder the difference between want and need.

    Dust if you must
    But there is not time
    Amongst piles of fabrics ,so sublime
    Blogs to inspire and books to read,
    Families to cherish and a life to lead.

    Dust if you must
    But just think
    That Old Age will come in a mere blink,
    And when you go,and go you must,
    You yourself will make more dust!

    Merry Christams All……Go forth & craft!

    LOVE that super wreath, what a brilliant idea with all those mis matched baubals we all have. I do love my blue & silver. Just coming for air from sewing, keep powering on, only another week to Christmas. What a lovely collection of gift tags too, i think the sticky type are awesome, no nameless presents under the tree. Joy to the world, love Posie
