December: Another Year Over.....

OK - so where has 2015 gone.  I cannot believe we are posting the final meeting of 2015 for the QQ.  Our final meeting was a fun and full one.  Activities varied, great food and belated birthday celebrations. And always difficult now, but a full house!!

Can you guess it was our Christmas meeting, a Christmas tree of bread rolls with a wonderful Cauliflower and cheese soup (with a great addition of some herb mustard).....

 

Various skills were on show today, a couple of hookers were in the room....  a new Corner to Corner (C2C) pattern was big tested by HS.  A boarder in dc was being tested by AB to complete her large Granny 'square'.

 

Hand sewing from the other three - HW trying hard to finish her whole cloth quilt now the cold weather is coming in.  CD continuing with some new stitch experimenting from a course completed a few days ago.  Great fabric (hand dyed)  and some wonderful thread. And finally CB finishing the binding on some small table runners for Christmas Gifts.

  

We had our 2016 diarys at the ready for pining down dates for next years meetings!  As you can see only one of us has made it to electronic format!!!

And belated birthday greetings for CB.  A delicious cake made by AB.

With many, many wonderful gifts.  So very lucky to have good friends.  THANK YOU all for your amazing gifts.

And to complete the day, a quick walk - in the very windy, wind to Hobby Craft.  Three dressed for the walk, the other needs a chat from her Mum about dressing for the weather conditions.

Another year over, wishing you all a GREAT CHRISTMAS AND A WONDERFUL NEW YEAR.  I hope Santa is kind to you all with great crafting gifts but I hope most of all he brings you extra time to enjoy your hobbies in 2016!!
