TIME IS FLEETING, MADNESS TAKES CONTROL...
Please can someone slow down time a bit? It's mad the way days are whizzing past! I am trying to keep to a bit of a schedule regarding the order of what to make in accordance of what event is happening first but between you and me, that went out of the window at the very beginning *grin*
It's looking very Christmassy (sorry, I said the C word....) as I was sorting out kits from my stash to give to some RNLI friends who are knitting small items for our event in December.
I also made a runner for a windowsill in the Harbour Lights Tearoom:
I cheated a bit with the printed patchwork fabric...
I've also been cutting out hearts from Christmas leftovers:
The three layer cake piles were an online bargain and are destined for a New Year baby quilt - it's always a risk getting these online but the choice is good, there's only a couple of duff ones.
I'm doing two stalls in Dunelm in Llanelli in November and needed some more professional pics of my stuff for the online ads - where's a professional when you need one?
He's a good lad, doing stunt high level pics as well!
A gorgeous little surprise turned up yesterday:
Cedric the Hare!! Isn't he fab? It was a lovely gift from Neet and Chas, I just love him and will put him in prime position in the JanCave. Thanks so much Neet, you're so kind thinking of me like that *hugs* I've just noticed that one set of whiskers is crooked though - that's Cedric's not G's - so they'll need a straighten out! Though the curly side makes him look quite dashing! Again, Cedric's.... *grin*
Such a thoughtful little gift but it really made my day xx
Hope you all have a cracking (and hopefully slightly slower) week! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Best of luck with the event at Dunelm Jan. It's always good when you know a great photographer!! Love Cedric the hare. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah
I agree time is flying and I really don't know where this year has gone. Well done on all your efforts Jan. The patchwork fabric has made a fab runner and saved a lot of cutting and stitching. Little hare is so sweet. What thoughtful buddies we have.😀 Keep stitching.x x Jo 🌈
Eek. Christmas. I have even done some tags, and well before my usual Post-Thanksgiving timeline. What's up with that?? Life is rocketing along for sure and it feels like it will never slow down.The hare is adorable and what a thoughtful gift! Best of luck with the fair and well done to the stunt photographer! He's a star.
Before I crash…
Happy WOYWW.

Well done you with all your makes…I love the patchwork runner. What a thoughtful gift….we are so lucky to have made such good friends.

I hope you do really well at the Dunelm fairs. Your makes are such good quality. Well done G for your promotional photos. And Cedric is such a lovely present! Well done Neet! Not sure of the figures in the Kings game chess set; I reckon the Lewis chess pieces have more character.
Take care and happy WOYWW

I nearly punched the air thinking that you’d succumbed to a timeline list!! Of course I should know better, we’re not in the stage of our lives to be changing, huh! Love the windowsill runner, great idea. I haven’t done a post yet but do intend to, currently at the little bungalow waiting for the insulation man. Glamour. I’m excited for you about the Dunelm days, even if they turn out to be an exercise in people watching it will be fun! Lovely pic of G doing the at height work, you’ll be needing a cherry picker for the outdoor shots! Xxx
