...Christmas spirit....

The last week was very chaotic and the next one will be the same so regrettably no time to post ….I hope Christmas holiday will arrive soon….to relax myself at home with my family for some days….

Yesterday by Immaculate Conception tradition I and Alice have made the Christmas tree and the crib….there is a Christmas spirit about…
...the Christmas tree is the same of the last year apart from some new ornaments bought in London and the white light I bought yesterday because the coloured one were broken…


…the crib is new…this year we used cork to make the characters…Alice has this original idea…and we make it together …




On Thursday we had Alice’s birthday party, now she is six…..There were 18 children at the party, we organized a treasure hunt and we have a lot of food ….but what a mess!!! … some tears apart( for the piques of a friend) Alice enjoy herself and this is the most important thing :o)!!

The first test of my state exam is gone well :o)…now I’m waiting for the results of the second one….next Monday I’ll have the third part, keep your’s finger crossed for me ;o)

Now some x-stitch progress….
I finished my October flip-it and I start the November one….I’m quite late but I hope to finish all my flip it by the end of December…



I have also finished a little card for my sister degree that took place last Tuesday…I choose a Margaret Sherry degree cat….I love this chart the cat is cute…I made the backstitch with black instead of brown as recommended in the chart for a mistake I notice that I used the wrong colour too late and I’m too lazy too made all the back stitch an other time with the right colour ;o)




Now I’m working on the MS Inquisitive kitty kit free with the last cross stitcher by now I stitched only the face…I think I’ll use it as a decoration for our front door…
Have a nice week :o)

The MS projects look great, and I think the backstitch in black looks fine. October's flip it is very cute, such bright fun colors. Your tree and nativity look lovely. I have my outside decorations up, but nothing really done on the inside yet.
