We are still bustling . . . how about you? The girls are busy crafting up more goodies for Winky Handmade, the Etsy shop they manage. Don't forget to stop in and have a peek. I just listed a few of my mini quilts--the two above were sold, but . . . I have more!
I will also be adding these small felt needlecases I've been stitching up in the evenings. (I'm still working on the peace dove.) Just some of the fun stuff. Plus, I'm still working on the "summer book" for my granddaughters, and have some really exciting news about that to share, along with a GIVE-AWAY. You won't want to miss this, because I think it's something everyone can appreciate and use. More details to come . . .
Right now, I'm listening to Corrine May. She has an exceptionally beautiful sweet voice. Her rendition of 'Joy to the World' has me in tears. Joyful tears, mind you! No booming Tabernacle Choir stuff. Listen online--make a Corrine May (Holiday) channel and let the calm envelope you.
Above:: I forgot to share this fox applique from the 'Sweet & Simple Country Quilts' book I blogged about last month here. He's too cute! Perfect for a bedroom pillow, I think. Click on the image to visit the gallery from whence he came for inspiration.
And a gentle reminder; the postal service is cutting back its workforce and it's operating hours, so don't delay placing your orders if you need items before December 25th. We pack and ship as fast as we can, but after your precious package leaves our hands there is nothing more we can do to expedite shipment. USPS is normally slow this time of year as it is, so I imagine it can only go downhill from there. *sigh*
I love all your adorable handmade things! Very inspiring! I love your blog.

Everything looks delightful. I had a fine time at the girls' Etsy store and now I'm happily listening to Pandora. It's quite the thing isn't it?!

How sweet, I still have my little slice of cake from their shop.

Hi Vicki,
It looks like you're all quite busy these days! Yes, just what we shop owners need, slower postal service!
Wishing you a very Happy Holiday season!
