‘Twas the week before Christmas and all through the world, bloggers were behind in posting…. at least this one is 🙂 Monday This and That, coming to you on Tuesday morning in Australia!
Last Week’s This and That
Last week went by in a blur… mostly because I got a new job….. Not sure why I got a new job, but it just happened and before I knew it, there I was with an interview and a job!
It’s as a personal care worker for a gentleman that lives just around the corner… just two or three afternoons a week, so not too bad, but somehow I ended up agreeing to take on another client and I have an interview for that this morning….
I see less sewing in my future……………………..
The Turnabout Quilt Pattern and Kits are out!
Remember the Turnabout Quilt I made for the Fat Quarter Shop?
I promised to let you know when the kit and patterns were out, and they are now! If you like red and white, you will love the kit!
Grab the free block pattern here!
Check out the full pattern here!
I used fabric from Lori Holt’s Cookbook Fabric range and I love the way it turned out….
This Week’s This and That
This week is going to be a busy one… but I think that will be the case for all of us! Mind you, I’ve got Christmas fairly organized… Now if only I could get my blog posts out on time!!!!
Our Christmas tree is up………..
Yes. It’s a small one. On a shelf. That’s because of our gorgeous little Loki kitten of mischief…. .we tried to put up the big tree but he promptly started chewing on it…. so it was off to plan B!
And my Lego Christmas Village…. I just love this time of year, don’t you?
All the houses can be turned around and there are all sorts of cool things inside…
You might see some Star Wars Lego in the photos… storm troopers, droids and jedis…. that’s because one year we had a Lego Star Wars Advent calendar… so now they are part of the village….
Well that is it for me… gotta head out to the sewing room and finish the Christmas SAL wall hanging!!
Have you got a bit of This and That to share? Then join in!
You don’t need to have your post formatted the same way as I do, but you can if you want… Just link your blog post containing a recap of last week, or the weekend, or your plans for this week…. or any bit of this and that you want to share with us!
I love your Lego Christmas village. I have never seen one before!
Thank you for all you share and I hope you and yours have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS
I love your LEGO village. The lady in the red dress, with the shopping bag looks like QE2! LOL
Beautiful Lego village!
That Lego Christmas village is really something!!!
Have fun with your new job Joy and I wish you all a very Merry Christmas ☃️🎄❄️
Love the Lego village & a new job……………what? Must try and catch up soon. Take care & hugs.
BTW. , can’t get your blog up on my old laptop or my new tablet. We’ll also see if this comment will appear.
Personal care workers are in such demand right now so you’re bound to find as much work as you want to do.
I really love that Lego Christmas village! And Star Wars are the perfect inclusion.,
What a neat village you have – very unique! Love that tiny tree, and I get it – I have four kitties but they are older and better behaved than they used to be ! Merry Christmas and congratulations on the new job!
