I am back it's true. We have actually been back since late tuesday but I have been doing full days at work covering for everyone else who is still on holidays. It was my turn. I had a really nice time away and got spoiled rotten gift wise- thank-you kind family! Maybe it has to do with being the baby of the family or the fact that I could be given a paper bag and still be thrilled, but it happens every year- I get given great stuff! My brother and sister in law came back from England for the holiday and we all had a great old time.
Me and my mum got crafty (see above) and I finally made the felt balls I have been dreaming about. I also knitted some flower pins and we bakedand baked up a storm.
Some highlights-
♥a walk in the snowfall
♥laughing all through Christmas dinner
♥laughing most of the time
♥doing most of a puzzle
♥a wacom tablette from paul!♥
♥groovy stripey tights, a proper electric kettle and a bath pillow from mum
♥an awesome miffy themed purse from Jonathan and Lisa
♥lazing about and knitting
♥grateful for a life I know is so truly fortunate♥

oh. oh. OH! Please share your flower pattern, I adore them & I have some lovely fuzzy yarn I'd like to use! Were they difficult?!
I like your felted balls as well, they'd look so great as a necklace! I have a bunch of dyed roving, were they tough? (Can you tell I'm not in a mood for anything difficult these days?!)
Happy New Year!!!!
