MERRY CHRISTMAS

On this day a child was born; his name was Jesus and son of the most high.  This is the real reason for this holiday.

Wishing all of my on-line friends the merriest of Christmases.

Slow Hooking Results but....

Haven't achieved much hooking the Star Geometric the last few days yet I like what has been done so far.

Now the odd shaped blocks have been hooked the rest should be smooth sailing.  Below is a photo of the original.  Yeah, I know you who follow me have seen it time and time again but if there is a new visitor they should know.

Although my hooking has been at a snail pace that is due to listing items on eBay.  BUT, must say eBay has given me great rewards for the time spend to photo, crop the photo, and list them.  

OY... then when the items sell there is the packaging up, labeling and shipping part.  OH... but I did say it was all worth it didn't I?  

Guess I'm jealous of my hooking time as I've another rug waiting in the wings.  Really wanted Star listed in the year of 2018 but don't think that will happen since there are more listings on eBay.

Surely everyone is busy putting together toys for  youngsters for Santa to put under the tree.  Many are baking, wrapping, gifts or packing bags to travel to grandma's house.  Whatever stage you are in, I wish for all of my friends, followers AND OF COURSE my family to have a very Merry Christmas.  I WILL be with my FAMILY on Christmas Day.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Wishing a very.......

...to all my on-line blog friends.

Hope all your wishes come true and that you get to relax and hook a bit during the down time after the BIG time of tomorrow's celebration with children, family and friends.

Proud grandma that I am must boast about my 11 year old grandson.  On Sunday he had the lead in his church play which had a Christian message.  Zach memorized his lines, some of which were long, but he had emotion in his words, not monotone like he was reading it off a page.

Naturally grandma took numerous photos but we were in the back of the church since the place was packed before my dear DIL got there to save seats.  Therefore these pics are at a distance and blurry.  Zach is the one in the white shirt.  Yeah, I know he has long hair in this photo.  For years Zach has had either a buzz cut, flat top or normal combed hair. 

And, BTW, Zach is on the honor roll, is only 11 but reading grade 7 level and excels in math.  So his mom and I agree that as long as he walks the straight and narrow with community, school and church he can have long hair for a while.  In case you think he is big for his age..... he is.  His dad is 6' 1" and his mom (my daughter-in-love) is at least 5' 11" so his destiny is to be taller than both I think.

Sorry, I try not to do the gushing grandma thing often but this kid is just awesome and on this Christmas Eve just wanted to share.  Lucky I didn't post all the rest of the photos I took.... just sayin'.

Merry Christmas to all of you.
