morning ladies   We're inching closer to Christmas!  Another lovely day here today, perfect for pav baking.
Yesterday was madness but I have finished all the shopping.  MrK is going to find a few of his dad's tools for son's new tool box then I can wrap it and the gift wrapping is done too.  He's having a blood test today and while in town will pick our half a ham up.  Our butcher will cut it in half again for us so half in the freezer for the new year and the rest for Christmas.  I must admit I'm really happy it's not our turn to host Christmas this year.  A lot less fuss and I don't have to worry about the garden being up to scratch and so on.  I know they come for the family day but most of us are avid gardeners so the garden is something we tend to gravitate too over the day.
I'm setting some time aside for stitching the tui, now I'm determined to finish it.  But am wondering if I should have used the glossy silk type threads.  Oh well, it is what it is.
Happy crafting
