Finishing up....

...that's what this week has been all about so far. Watching Riley finish up his primary school years, with graduation assemblies and fun days and all the emotion that goes with it. Finishing up my Christmas shopping...well, getting closer to the finish, anyway :) Finishing up the Christmas cards, and the teacher gifts, and the plans for Christmas Day. Tomorrow the kids will be finishing up school for another year.

I've also finished off a couple of Christmas gifts...


I've been meaning to make my gorgeous niece a cloth doll for sooooo long, and I finally managed it this year! She may be a bit old for a cloth doll, but hopefully she'll love it anyway :)

I've used a pattern from Rosalie Quinlan's first book, Gift, but gave Emma (the doll) a cute little tin pail instead of a pinwheel, and filled it with lollies.

I still have a pretty long Christmas crafting to-do list...but you know what? I'm happy just to go with the flow...finish what I can...leave what I can't. Who needs extra pressure at this time of year?

P.S. Back soon with a December Daily catch-up...hopefully :)
