..........................♥.............................

did I ever told you, that I just loooooove the Christmas? :-) Today, I watched our short family Christmas videos, when Natalka was 3 years old and Nelinka 7 months old and a year later. Ooooh, they were so sweet. I have to admit I had a tears of happiness in my eyes....

I am looking forward so much for Christmas and I am working at our Christmas decorations.

The pattern of this Christmas tree is ready :-)

I really enjoyed creating these trees. It is funny, that all trees were made under same design, I only use another yarn, different embellishment and every single one looks different and it is unique. I just love it :-)

Hi my dears, how are you? 

I am busy like bee - but I love it! :-)
Only one month left..... ♥

I wish you nice week :-)

From all of my heart, I wish you Merry Christmas!

When I made coasters for a wish - I made this cute coaster for our Christmas table also :)  I am looking so much for Christmas.. to see our little girl eyes :-) 

If you like it as same as I like it :-) The pattern is already ready. 

Friend of my Marketa, for who I made patchwork ladies bag in past loves horses. Her daughter loves horses too and I decided to make for them something special:-) Well I tried if I could make a horse. And I made two - one as an Christmas decoration and I could not help to myself and made one colorful..:-) 

OK, I am able to make a horse, I am very happy about it - so I have to make different two for my friend and her sweet daughter:-)

If you like my rocking horse I made a pattern.

iaaaaaaaah:-)
