Wishing you a happy Christmas

 With Christmas just around the corner, I want to wish you a happy Christmas. Christmas for me is a time of celebrating, having family together, delicious food, fun and laughter, but above all a time of worshipping the Great Gift-giver, who sent Jesus - the ultimate gift of salvation. 

"The Infinite became an Infant". How amazing is that!

I am very hopeful that I will see more than 20 of our family this year, now that our borders are open. Negotiating all the rules and regulations will be part of it for some of them, but totally worth it if we can be together! I have plans to be able to include hubby in Aged Care in the celebrations, but as with everything these days, we hold the plans lightly!

Meanwhile, I have one eye on the new year when I will be offering a beautiful new block of the month design. It is a very practical project with lots of different parts - 33 in all! 

Keep an eye out for the new design in January!


May you be blessed with the peace and joy of knowing the Christ of Christmas.

Val

I'm glad to know you and your family will make the efforts needed to be together this Christmas. It's been a tough year, especially for Australians, so getting together will be especially sweet. And certainly, as much as possible, your husband must be included! My best wishes for happy times. Your big following of embroiderers will certainty appreciate the time and care you've put into your next BOM. It looks lovely.

Was just sitting here stitching when the Lord brought you to mind and I began to pray for you and your dear hubby.
May His perfect love, mercy and grace flow generously over your life next year, Val, and this season of celebrating Jesus our Saviour bring abundant joys and blessings.
Love and hugs,
Jennifer
