Christmas decorating

Here is a photo of the new Nativity scene.  (When I was buying the bale of hay, the fellow from Norco Rural referred to it as a 'Naivety' scene and so that is what it is often called at our house).  The Nativity scene on Saturday originally had a stable aswell, however it turned out to be the un-stable and kept falling over.  So as not to incur any legal action from injuries to the neighbourhood kids, it has been dismantled for now.  Watch this space for further stable improvement and perhaps further character development in 2013....



 
I've also included a photo of our outdoor Christmas tree. One of the giant baubles fell off on the weekend, thank goodness no-one was standing underneath.



Foster Dog #20 - Banjo



I have been very tardy in posting a photo of our most recent foster dog, Banjo.  We looked after Banjo a few months ago and he has since found a new home.  Banjo was a lovely dog - very keen on his walks but unfortunately also a little keen in enlisting Honey on week-day missions to dig up the veggie patch....

Foster Dog #19 - Jilly





This is Jillian (Jilly), who is our current foster dog. She is about 3 months old with an unknown breed (staffy cross, boxer??).


She is totally adorable and is a very welcome visitor to our home

Quilt 6 - Pink Sampler







This is a pink sampler quilt that I made with lots of scraps. I also tried out a different quilting pattern on each block.
