Season's greetings dear readers. I do hope you're well, and have enjoyed the festivities thus far?!! Not meaning to start this post on a downer but as I type I can see the River Great Ouse rushing past my window, all swollen and angry. I can't help but think of all the people who've had to contend with flooding this past week, and how utterly devastating it must be, especially at this time of year. Nature is a wondrous thing but violent and destructive in equal measure. I send my thoughts out to all those affected.
I've spent the past few days indulging in plenty of yummy food and festive entertainment. The run up to the big day was quite hectic to be honest and I didn't get in half of what I'd planned to do. I know I'm not alone there, and I'm sure most of us can breathe a collective sigh of relief now we're safely on the other side. This is the best bit for me though, the part of the holiday's when you can veg out in your favourite PJ's, watch copious amounts of films, and graze on all those treats you've stockpiled in the cupboards. I cannot wait for four o'clock every day, when the light fades and all my twinkling fairy lights come into their own.
My crochet hook has been badly neglected in recent weeks, but I did manage to finish a few projects before the Christmas madness took over. I thought I'd give you a preview here today of the squares cushion, and then do a proper write up when time allows. I think it deserves it's proper 'ta-dah' moment!
Until then, I send warm wishes to all and many thanks for your presence here at Annie's Place through 2013.
See you in 2014

You've made a beautiful job of your crochet cushion Sharron, I particularly like the colour placement. It will look gorgeous in your home. I'm looking forward to seeing what you create in the coming year. Enjoy your pj days xxx
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean...I love it when the madness is over and you can just chill out in your PJ's until lunchtime ;)

Hi Sharron, I really enjoy your blog, this is my first comment.! You like all the things I do. I am pleased you had a nice Christmas, we have had a warm one here in NZ, I have still managed to crochet though. I always admire your use of colour. Carolyn NZ.
