It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like . . .


With the tree finally up, time to bring out some of the Christmas cheer.

I made these a couple of Christmases ago, along with the table runners from fabric I had left-over from the quilt.




My brother-in-law gave me this pattern for Christmas a few years ago. It took me nearly two months to finish. All the frames were made custom made by him, and framed by me.




Some left-over 2x4s hubby cut out for me, made over with the good old paint brush.


Some 3-D Trees I designed and hubby cut out for me.


Another cute pattern. I borrowed this one from my sister-in-law.(This one's obviously not as time consuming.)

Glass jars hubby gave me for Valentine's Day, ready for the season.

Some thrifted dishes



Yet another cross-stitch!




Most important of all . . .

The Reason for the Season.

Merry Christmas!

  3. All your decorations are wonderful! I LOVE the two quilt runners on the table!! That beautiful stitchery only took you two months! It would take me two years probably - love the others too. I really like the blocks too. I've been looking for some vintagey ones that spell joy and I may just have to squeeze out some time to make them since I can't find them.

    Great job - everything looks fantastic!
