Merry Christmas…2012

1

My hope is that all of you are having the BEST Holiday possible…and remember sometimes things are as good and YOU decide they are going to be…

I want to thank everyone for making it possible for me to be able to do what I love…and that is to create and educate with my stitching…without you all it would not be possible and I just want to let you know I am grateful!

Mom and I are busy getting our Holiday meal ready…she picked number 67 for the winner of yesterday’s post….MarieDecember 24, 2012 at 1:20 pm

Lisa, I had an opportunity to learn about the Juki machine years ago and was unable financially to purchase one. Later a friend of mine was selling her Brother Nouvelle 1500 which is basically the same machine with a few minor differences. LOVE IT! I too would rather sew on that machine than any other. Well later another friend was selling her Juki 98Q and I was financially able to purchase it (she had too many machines and favored another). Anyway I was blessed to have 2 wonderful machines. I actually like the threader better on the Brother and the 1/4″ mark on the throat plate on the Brother, although the needle up/down on the Juki is rather nice. Both are wonderful machines! I have sewn on others but these two are my absolute favorites hands down!

Marie…send me your address and we will be sending you a Christmas Care Package…in other words we will be putting stuff together for you, kind of like a Big Christmas Present!

I will pick 12 winners of the Christmas Blog Hop tomorrow…

Merry Christmas All!!!

    MERRY CHRISTMAS…. I am busy making different chutneys for a Brie I baked. I did one with cranberries and nuts and just now I did one with dried apricots, raisins, basalmic vinegar and other goodies. Smells great.
    I have another to make yet. Hope you are getting lots of good stuff to eat.

    Merry Christmas. . .past! I am sitting here, too full and working off a chocolate, a cup of tea and a cup of Christmas punch. Worth every calorie after entertaining twenty people tonight. I am looking forward to tomorrow when I can do some stitching and a little machine work. Just for me. You and Primitive Gatherings have been a light for me this year and I’ve supported you well too. lol. I know your best will even be better next year. Happy New Year.
