Advent Update

I've continued to enjoy opening more advent gifts this week.  Day 6 brought a gorgeous needlebook in my favorite color combo of blue and brown and Day 7 was a skein of wonderful Tentakulum threads in greens and golds which I have the perfect fabric for.  Now I just need to pick a pattern to use them with. 


Days 8 and 9 brought some lovely silver ornaments and some super yummy chocolates from Germany. What could be better?  Nothing I can think of!

I have managed to finish another Christmas gift but there are so many more on the list I'm trying not to get overwhelmed.  I will just do my best to get them done and since it's family, hopefully they will be understanding if they don't arrive on Christmas day.  It will prolong the holiday giving don't you think?

You have received some great little goodies through your advent calendar. It's a lot of fun to see what your partner made and bought for you.
