Crafty Christmas
Yesterday I hosted a tiny craft day, to fill our house with Christmas coziness. David helped me bake gingerbread cookies until midnight Friday night, those are really hard to make. You have to re-freeze the dough every time you roll up the scraps to cut more pieces. But they came out well, and were tasty. I also baked a cranberry pear bread that was delicious and I ate at least a pound of.
Agata, Christine and Rachel came and it was so happy to have good friends talking and drinking tea and stitching and drawing and filling up the house with warmth. Agata has been working on these felt desserts which she's making into a baby mobile! So cute. I worked on my project, which is making little bags that I'll stuff with different holiday teas for the designers in the office. I carved a potato to stamp my design on the muslin bags. Then there's a secret Xmas gift we all worked on that I'll post after Christmas... but also amazing was one of my friends, Karen, from work, popped in at the end of the day and whipped out this fabric star for my tree! It goes with the little fabric birdies beautifully!
