CHRISTMAS DECORATING FOR 2025

 At the Thanksgiving table someone asked me if I plan
to put up a tree this year.  Often, when people get older
they "drop out of the decorating phase" in life and I do
understand.  As long as I am able, I do plan to keep finding
joy in holiday and seasonal decorations.

I took an existing tablecloth and cut a strip off the
longer sides.  Then I added a deeper ruffle in a different
toile fabric.  I am pleased with the way it turned out.






I have had this tea cosy for a long time.  It is
made with a tea towel piece on the front by
an artist who was big in the 90's.  You might remember Sandy
Clough who illustrated so many of Emelie Barnes 
earliest books.



My other Christmas tea cosy is from
a long time back too.  I love this older Anne
of Green Gables fabric.  I rarely can find this
fabric from the 90's.





I love angels that were designed by Nicol Sayre.
Mine are all from years ago including this
sweet Nativity:









And one last collage:


On Monday we got a little snow....not much but we love it!
