The End Is In Sight!

This evening I can report that the Man-gift is finished and the Dead Simple runner has also been completed, so my Christmas making is now at an end!

I will photograph the table runner in the morning as it was already getting dark when I finished at about 3.30pm!

I am still waiting on parcels, although more arrived that I was not expecting, including a lovely one from my sister courtesy of Kate of M is For Make!  But having seen what it was, it all went back in the envelope until Christmas Day!

I received my lovely Bee block from Sarah...


There may have been some fudge in with it too, but you'd be hard pushed to find any evidence of it ever having been here now ;)

January's Brit Bee package also arrived from Judith, including a dalek and more (for a lucky so-and-so!), I will therefore be pondering log cabins over the festive period, and no doubt wishing I could escape to one!

The posty also delivered a wee 'thank you' from Lucy, my Sew, Mama, Sew! winner, including some pretty scraps...


So I have had a good day, I even got the remaining food shopping done.  I am now going to top it off with an hour of Kirstie's Homemade Christmas, put my feet up and catch up with blogs and comments...

Tomorrow I get to ponder cooking, cleaning and clothing and not to mention wrapping - and I thought I was winning!
