Scrap Bag

I always decide to take on something big for the kids in my life at Christmas. Not that I’m busy enough with our birthday sale etc. So this year it was kinder dolls. 9 of them. 7 girls and 2 boys! I have just finished the last stitch so only a week late – not too bad.

Anakin Skywalker for  Zach.

Zoo Keeper for Jacob

and three lovely girls for Emily, Caitlin and Lucy.
I did make another 4 girls but they were actually made on time!
Given out on Christmas day to my neices.

Class list for 2010 is up on the web page.

We had a lovely Christmas day, lots of food, presents and fun. Thought I would share a few photos from the day.

The three Jansen Ladies!

Three giggly cousins!

Love this photo!

Adda and her girls -  all dressed exclusively in Adda handmade originals.

and the Family shot!

I have mucking around with the idea of moving, I actually found a place just a little way up the road but unfortunately it didn’t work out. So now we are staying here! I have bought the building (54 Victoria Street) and am planning to do some renovations. Make a much bigger classroom is first on the list. Fingers crossed it will be ready for next year.
How exciting!

This fabric is just too cute!

This is my new toy…..

I have been keeping my eyes peeled for one of these little beauties for years.
Would you believe my lovely Auntie Dee had one in the cupboard that she
never uses. She got it for her 21st, and really didn’t use it much.
The Elna Lotus machines are very small and very light.
Fantastic for classes, traveling etc.

and it’s all mine!!!!!!!!

Lots and lots of new stuff has come in this week.
I have been very busy with the sale and haven’t had a chance to show you.

the photo was taken in the foyer of Historic Craigs Hotel.
Feeling pretty special.
