CARLA'S BIRTHDAY VISIT



My eldest daughter came to visit today (she lives with her boyfriend) as I had not seen her for a few weeks. She opened her birhday presents while she was here as she is twenty next week.




She also arrived with my auntie who, I might add, looks twenty years younger than her seventy years and fixes her own roof tiles!!




THE TOOTH FAIRY


I'm not really sure what to make of this, but kelly loves it.
It now sits on a shelf in her bedroom (pattern by Alan Dart).
I am also knitting Alan Dart's Christmas Tree but there is no way that it will be finished for this Christmas as I started too late.

EMBELLISHED THROW



This is a photograph of the throw I have been working on. It is now finished thank goodness, as I seem to have been working on it for ages.
Photograph of finished item to follow soon.

HAMA CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS


The girl's spent the afternoon making Christmas Hama decorations. They are going to decorate their bedroom windows with them. I look forward to the window cleaning after Christmas (I don't think so).
