Advent report - part 2

The Advent calender was really fun this year. This what I got week 3 and 4.

 

From May-Britt I got a cute owl key ring and chokolate ( that i enjoyed very much) for 3. Sunday. From my mom I got precut fabrics and wadding for a mystery tabelrunner and one spool of quilting thread.

The 4th week I got more pre cut fabrics, backing and pattern for another tabelrunner. From May-Britt I got a beautifull pair of siccors.

I love all the quilty gifts and fun.

Christmas Holiday was peacefull and fun with good foods and family meetings.

A new year is soon to open for all kinds of new possibilities.
