I can’t believe Christmas is almost here. Today is December 22, and since I consider Christmas to be December 24, Christmas will be here in two days. Time passes by so quickly. Unfortunately we do not have any thick snow on the ground, it melted a couple of days ago, even if it did stay on the ground for a few days. Now when I look out of my window I see a depressing rain and snow mix and not at all a white, pillowy blanket like on the picture below which I took the other day when it was still Winter Wonderland. 
Some decorations are up, and the tree is up which gives a lot of atmosphere. I love the smell of the tree, and the focal point which it gives a room. This year I also made a few felt decorations as ornaments, similar to the ones on the Christmas cards.
My sewing machine has also been working hard lately on Christmas presents. I have to say, a sewing machine is such a versatile tool - you can do so many things with it. It's so much fun to create new things - some of which I'm quite pleased with. Of course, I will show the various projects, that is once they are opened which won’t be long since it’s already December 22!
