presents.........

A few extra Christmas presents..............
Cheryl sent me this lovely table runner and gingerbread man........the runner has already been put to use and the little man is sitting in the tree.........
Janice was "forgetful" when she was supposed to leave this ruler somewhere for me to borrow............now I know why she was so "forgetful" and failed to reply to that email...........very sneaky but now I get to have fun with this ruler............thanks Janice.......
My Mum gave me this CWA cook book for Christmas.....more great recipes.........
and my stitching buddies gave me these chooks to add to the collection..........the blue one is magnetic so will go on the fridge..........
I've been busy sewing..............pics to come..........finally catching up on some blog posts.............
Catch you later..............

Gorgeous gifts! Afternoon tea at your house one day soon? I love these kind of recipe books, nice to know that the recipes are tried and tested by 'real' people you can trust.

NIce gifts! I love your wooden chooks! I have the little twister - I think I might have had a pic on my blog of what I made with it in October. Khris (sew prim khris) is bringing me a big one back from the States.

Anita said...

Actually no she isn't, that was something else LOL. I got given one as a gift with a book of patterns for it back in October. Forget about all this with it all packed up!!
