With the arrival of The Man in the Big Red suit shortly, I plan to stop quilting for this year & will have a nice break. I want to sew, bike ride, drink coffee (oh wait I do that special thing every day!) possibly potter around doing some neglected jobs around the house & garden.
I have put the Christmas tree up ready for the festive season,
 another year of going all out with lots of effort:


 For my readers w-a-y on the other side of the world, 
here in New Zealand Christmas time is summer time! 
Which must seem very unreal to you all, just as a wintery Christmas is to us Kiwi's. 
But don't worry Santa knows & comes prepared:


 Until next time, be safe out there while jostling your way the through malls & the supermarkets!

Leeanne.
