I know, I know, he's not finished into a stocking yet. I have to think on that. lol!
(Don't you like the sunrise on Noah?)
Love that ark!
And how cool is that alligator? (Or crocodile.)
I also have been showered with prizes and gifts lately. Christ of Tot Hill Farm Stitches gave me this lovely chart of Jane A. Jackson. Thank you, Chris! I love it! (I took the chart out of the plastic to avoid the glare.)
RuthB of The Musing Badger sent me this wonderful prize of a cache of fibers.
There are a slew of Gentle Arts fibers, a slew of Belle Soie silks, a couple of Waterlilies silks, a few Carrie's Creations, and a Needle Necessities. All so pretty too! Thank you, RuthB!
And BeckySC of Beckybee's Stitching Hive sent me this lovely gift out of the blue. I was so surprised and touched.
It's a beautiful wooden box with Becky's lovely stitching on top. Thank you so much, Becky! You are so sweet! I will treasure this forever!
A blogging friend asked me the other day to show off my Nicholas Mosse pottery collection. Her sharp eyes spotted a few pieces on the table for our Thanksgiving feast, and she asked to see more.
Well, I've been collecting Nicholas Mosse Pottery for years and years. In fact, the pictures of my collection I'm going to show you are from quite a few years back. I took them back when the boy child was in middle school and had braces. (Yes, that's the boy child. lol!)
Isn't he cute? Oh yeah, and that's my pottery collection. A bit much, huh? I'm very good at collecting through the years. lol!
I've added one or two more pieces since those pictures were taken. But we'll ignore that fact. lol! I'm a devoted fan of Nicholas Mosse, in case you couldn't tell. We always use my dishes for the holidays of the year. The kids look forward to choosing which plate they will use.
Sorry for the long post. I just had a backlog of things I've been meaning to post about so I thought I'd do it in one fell swoop.
Thanks as always for stopping by and saying hi. I hope everyone has a wonderful week. And many wishes to everyone for a Happy Christmas, a Happy Hanukkah, or whatever you might celebrate. Enjoy all the festivities and celebrations!
