I know the yuletide season is over

however...
out of respect to my swap partner Kristin
i wanted to showcase her beautiful tree
made purely from recycled sweaters or other woolen garments
this tree graciously sat
on our kitchen servery amongst
other loved pieces
photos and all

i know its boring to hear the 'time eludes' story all the time
the truth is
the time i do have/make
mostly goes into the creating
and not the uploading and blogging about
and although i did initially begin this blog to stay in touch
with my gorgeous sweet girl living abroad
sometimes

time
is better spent....you know where

in the making
not the dreaming of...
these baskets/vessels i have made for another online
friend
in the UK....
i dont think she has received them yet
i hope she likes them
i know she will be surprised as its a while since we connected
this makes me smile
...
sweet day xx
