wiseheartIt's definitely impossible to sew 26 of these until next Thursday, but the ones I've finished turned out well enough.
They're small enough to fit into someone's palm and are supposed to serve either as Christmas tree ornaments or as gift bags. Many people prefer to give money or gift cards nowadays, and these would help to keep the Christmas spirit nonetheless. *g*
Other than that, we had choir practice with the Oldies at ungodly 8.30 again (everyone but me was top fit), ending with cookies and mulled wine as one of the ladies had her birthday, plus we had to eat up the leftovers from yesterday.
The sewing group met for the penultimate time before the fair. My disastrous shortbread cookies were a big success. I also sold some of my stuff to two colleagues who were afraid that they won't be able to get to my booth in time during the fair and wanted a pre-emptive chance to snatch what they wanted. So, all in all, I had a successful day.
Oh, and last night started snowing! I can't remember the last time Advent would start with snowfall! It was magical - until I had to go out into the wet dirt in the morning. Still magical, though.
