I’d like to wish all my blog readers a very happy Christmas, filled with lots of stitchy goodies (and chocolate)!
I hope you all manage to find some time for yourselves among all the mayhem – women generally tend to get a raw deal over Christmas, while making the festive season great for everyone else – so, take some time out, and do whatever makes you happy 🙂
I’m really grateful for all those of you who have followed my blog, especially those of you who comment on my posts, as I love to have conversations with you and find out what you think!!
This year has not been the easiest for me, due to the ill-health of my husband, and some personal difficulties – but I am looking forward to the New Year, when I’ve got some really good things planned for the blog, including the wonderful Carolyn Pearce Strawberry Fayre etui stitch-along, which will hopefully start in January 2018.
Have a great Christmas!

I have so enjoyed seeing how you have created the various kits during the year. Although not a miniaturist myself all your miniature kits and rooms look very enticing. Just for interest I live in a suburb of Cape Town in South Africa.
All the best to you for 2018.
Thanks – I’ve got several more doll’s house blog posts that I want to do in 2018. I’ve got three doll’s houses now, in various states of completion!
Wishing you and your family a Peaceful Christmas and a 2018 full of good things and lots of embroidering.
Thank you for sharing and for such a wonderfully practical blog.
Thanks very much! Thank you for your interesting comments on my posts 🙂
My pleasure. I have learnt a lot from you. I am an admirer of your assembling skills.
Sorry to hear that you had a difficult year. Here’s to a bright and happy new year! Thank you so much for all the lovely smalls that make our dollhouse a home. 😉 Kay in Columbus, Ohio
Thank you!
Merry Christmas to you and your family with best wishes for the New Year. Let’s all keep on stitching!
Yeah! Keeping on stitching is the best solution to just about anything!
Have a lovely Christmas Janet, and I’m looking forward to starting the Strawberry Fayre with you in the New Year.
Hi Jeanette, have a great Christmas too!
Janet, what is the date we are starting the Strawberry Fayre from? I’m impatient to get going!
Hi Jeanette, it’ll be towards the end of the month, as I’m drowning in January Sale orders at the moment 🙂
Merry Christmas, Janet and readers. Looking forward to Strawberry Fields in the New Year, with your guidance!

Thanks very much 🙂
Hi, Janet,
I am very busy making it a good Christmas for everyone as you say. I am also taking “mini moments” to work on miniature projects – this keeps me sane!! And, my small kits are getting done! Have a Happy Christmas – you are always in my thoughts.
Hi Pat – good to hear from you! I hope you and your ‘little crafter’ (who is probably not quite so little now!) are well.
very well, thank you. Wee lass is 14!
14!! Where did the time go?!
Happy Christmas Janet. I always love reading your updates. I hope 2018 is a great year for you and your husband
Thanks very much Catherine 🙂
