Busy little Elf!

Today am feeling tired, the short days don't help, not having much daylight to get work done but I guess I can have dinner now, then relax at the sewing machine and recharge my batteries.  I've been asked to alter a dress so it's ready for next week, I've taken all the measurements, so I hope when it's ready next week, it fits perfect for their xmas party!

At some point I would like to make my own clothes, but I can't see me getting round to that until the next year (my husband will love me adding to my already bursting material collection!), but he has his Playstation so as long as we are both happy life is good hey! 

I am terrible for keeping old jars, I use them for storing buttons, etc and also make them into candle holders.  I love putting the candles on in the evening making our living-room cosy.  My favourite scent is a vanilla or cinnamon candle.  

Oh well time to stick the oven on and cook the chicken and potatoes, then settle down for the night! 

I'll leave you with a photo of a lovely cushion, seeing as so many of you are liking the 'caravan' pin cushion on Pinterest.
