christmas!!!!!!

bring on the wreaths, and trees, and sparkly stuff.

it's officially christmas season!

i was feeling the spirit all weekend long.

(from house and garden)

put up my tree!

with a million glass balls i've been collecting for years. both vintage and new.

then i brought out my sewing machine to make a garland

fashioned sort of similar to this in colors.

i was just going to cut out squares and sew them together in a string. 

but my sewing machine is rejecting my efforts.

i think its broken.

i know the bare minimum on my sewing machine, just enough to not know how to fix it.

i use all the standard settings and try not touch it....

just use it.

didn't work this time.

so long story short, i don't have a picture to share.

wah wah.

i know.

i have to get my dumb machine fixed before i can get on it.

but i have a cute wintery plaid, cranberry, gold, magenta and black and white fabric.

should be cute, right?

hope you had a great thanksgiving.

i did.
