Looks christmasy just a bit late

My walk this morning SNOW !

Well here is some pictures of the village whilst on my walk this morning.
First out my back door and some lovely snow laden trees, then over to
the church and found two wonderful trees with snow on their branches.
An old phonebox in the village, this one could make a wonderful xmas
card for next year. Last but not least as I have been wanting to take
this picture of the thatch cottage being thatched ... well no ones doing it
but its almost finished now. A dying talent now I think for the roofers doing
the thatched cottages. Off work today and getting a sketchbook in order, as
I have just been putting papers in it of things that I like and finally got around
to gluing some of the photocopies and pictures in it. Brown paper art pics
tomorrow ...WATCH THIS SPACE

OK so I have a thing for MOOSES

It all started when my man came to Canada for a visit when I lived there and he said "Oh I didn't see any mooses" ... so when I went to visit him in texas I brought him Mr Moose (orange antlers)
Of course that started it, for xmas in 2000 a friend gave us the small one in the front (right)
Anonnymoose. Nonny for short.
Whilst in texas we went to spring texas and found Connie (top left) , and another
for my sister Sue (Bonnie) who now lies over the ocean in canada.... ok sad, sad I know.
When we left texas we rescued two more with orange antlers to give to some friends,when we left they are Tricky and Mickey Moose.
OK the story is going from bad to worse... and then another christmas we got the white moose from his mom... she is vanilla moose or banilla as I call her.
Ok and they all have their own quilts. Today I did banillas quilt, as I got four fat quarters for xmas and she didnt have a quilt. Just the binding still to do and that is done.
Its all good practice to try out free machining on these little quilts.
And besides all mooses should have a quilt so they can cuddle up at night right??
And no more mooses jumping on the beds. We have called a truce and said no more mooses!
I am off to bed now, nighty night.

From Canada EH!
