A Pinny and a blue wren

Eldest DD asked me to make a maids apron for her school play; problem being it's needed for Thursday! Not something I've attempted before but here it is ..............

We built our home and moved in 9 years ago; not a tree on the block; many tree's have been planted and  it's taken that long for our newest neighbour to feel at home .......

We've only noticed him this last few days and he's not at all shy; here he is looking through the family room window to see what we're doing!! We're hoping he asks all his relatives to move in too ........

Giveways

Kaye over at Kittenstitching told me about these 2 giveways :) Have a go both look awesome.......

Heather at Heathers Stitiching Story is giving away this - 

And Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe is giving you a choice of colour in their giveway; here's the rust and gold sample - 

Not sure which I would choose if I were the lucky winner. Go on and enter.

Another busy day ...............

2 more advent calendars finished today. Unfortunately no sewing tomorrow :( Must do the Scout Accounts!!

Fingers crossed someone wants to buy them.

Chookyblue's Secret Santa Swap
