Day 17, a little catching up

This kitten Tipsy is Buddy’s best friend, they are very close friends.

Love this picture

I wanted to show the quilts I have out for Christmas but the day flew by without me going around taking pictures of them so I will do the tomorrow.. plus I’ll dig out the ones that I don’t have out.

But until then I just share some updates.

First of all I have made a little progress on the Seaman hat for the grandson, in fact I’ll have it done by tomorrow and need to because I have to get it in the mail I feel I’m pushing it waiting till tomorrow to get it off

Then I haven’t done much on my advent knit Full of Minis hat but after the seaman hat is done I’ll be able to devote more time.

The other day I received these two new cookbooks, I heard nothing but good reviews and I’m looking forward to making some baked goods and vegetables dishes.

Now we’ll get caught up on the Advent

Have 3 day’s worth.

They are all again are so pretty. I think they’ll all go very well together, in fact I should take a picture of them all together and show you.

Well that’s all I had to catch up on.

Till tomorrow

Kat.
