Yee-ow.........just what I needed!!!.............NOT!!!
BUT SANTA....I certainly didn't mind getting this!!! Nanette from Freda's Hive was so generous to include me in one of her wonderful Christmas goody packages. This little star ornament is just so lacy.....sweet and too darn cute for words! She created these by cutting up and using a vintage Christmas table cloth.....she tells how on her blog....go see. I'm ga ga over the neat little pile of cute squares of fabric she included too. They really remind me of all things vintage-ee. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness Nanette!!! You need to scoot on over to Nanette's blog and read up on an upcoming retreat she will be involved with!
AND SANTA....whatever could be in this lovely little package???
WOW....it's this fabulous apron made by the ever so creative AMANDA from the Busy Little Quilter blog. Amanda had a giveaway on her blog for one of these cutie patootie aprons....and I won.....and since she knew I loved and collected Santas, she made mine with this great vintage looking Santa fabric. Go here to get the pattern Amanda shares for this 'fat quarter' apron. Thank you for my apron Amanda....it really is so so cute!!!
santa was good to you!

Oh gosh that ice cream maker looks wonderful! I'm glad you like your little goody. I'm glad that I could get you back, finally.
ReplyDeleteBetween Santa and your friends, you are one lucky lady!
ReplyDeleteMake some strawberry yogurt and I'll be over
ReplyDeleteI think Santa deserves a hug
I love the apron. My mom always wore a Christmas apron, this reminded me of that! How lucky to get this one!
ReplyDeleteGreat Gifts. Lucky Girl!!
ReplyDeleteNow *that* is a fabulous apron! I'd wear it all season long. I might have to hunt down that fabric. Thanks for the link to the pattern - so easy!
ReplyDeleteI have an ice cream maker, very decadent so we don't use it very often. But sooooo delicious!
...anything with Cuisinart is the "best gift ever" and that's been my experience, for real, just sayin'... although there are some treasures here that are pushing for first place that's certain!
ReplyDeleteHa, I bought an icecream maker and I've made some frozen fruit yoghurt icecream in it as well as vanilla. I love the gifts you got, the apron pattern is very cute and Nannetes goodies are very special.
ReplyDeleteWhat time should be we there for sundaes?!?! Say it with me, mmmmmm, homemade ice cream. In as little as 25 minutes! Love your other lovely gifties too!
ReplyDeleteVery nice gifts.....You were obviously a very good girl.
ReplyDeleteMicki
Ohhhhhhhhhh nice stuff - and if you want - I'll come over and we'll make ice cream so I can help you eat it LOL I love the fabrics, so watch them while you are eating that ice cream - someone might snitch them. :-)
ReplyDeleteCute cute cute Santa apron.
MMMM.... I scream you scream we all scream for ice cream!! When is it being served??
ReplyDeleteLove the fabric with the vintage Santas. It makes a really cute apron.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!
ReplyDeleteSanta's Helpers did a great job this year! Nanette is the BEST! I also went GAGA over the ornaments when your posted them on her blog. Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteNow....back to business....when do I get some of that ice cream?????...It better wait for when it is 100+ degrees outside!
Lovely jubbly. Something tells me you won't be needing the ice cream maker for the moment!
ReplyDeleteSanta WAS good
ReplyDeleteLovely gifts! Ice cream is my favorite food. And Nannette always makes such wonderful things. Amanda's apron is loads of fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely lovely things. I wonder what mincemeat flavour ice cream would taste like?
ReplyDeleteYou must have been a very good girl in 2009!
ReplyDeleteDarling apron and Mmmmm MMM icecream! It's freezing outside and the photo of your icecream maker....Makes me want icecream :)~
ReplyDeleteadorable apron and that Nanette is so sweet.
ReplyDeleteohh, I would be in so much trouble with that little cuisinart! 2 quarts in 25 minutes?? I'm sure my hubby could eat it fast enough that we'd have to do a couple batches at a time!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you love your apron! Those are some nice goodies Nanette sent you. She's so sweet!
ReplyDeleteSo, when can I come for ice cream? I love homemade ice cream, but I don't own an ice cream maker. It's probably a good thing!
Soooooo, Belinda, gettin' much use outta that ice cream maker this month?
ReplyDeleteSomething tells me you won't be needing the ice cream maker for the moment!
