I hope you have all had a lovely Christmas and a great New Year's. We have been very family focused this year. Spending Christmas lunch with my sister Fiona, and Nathan, Issi and Ruby, Mum, Dad and John. We broke from tradition and had a BBQ and it was so much better. After lunch we all enjoyed playing on the Play Station that Issi and Ruby received from Santa. For dinner that night we went to a BBQ with Andrews brother, John and his extended family.
On Boxing Day we had a "Left-over" BBQ at Mum's.
New Years Eve we went to a BBQ with friends at the Tiffin's and New Years Day saw us having yet another BBQ with my family at our house.
Thank goodness the Tassie weather has been co-operating and we have been able to be outside enjoying the sunshine on every occasion!
Things have been very quiet on the crafting side. I have almost finished my "Spring Cleaning"....have gone a little crazy this year and tidied every cupboard and cleaned entire rooms- walls, doors, windows etc..
I have managed to finish my little Kinder girls. I was making them for my daughters and nieces for Christmas but decided to keep them for Easter. The red lady is mine and the 4 girls can choose which one they would like.
The pattern for these ladies is from Jodie (aka Ric-Rac) and they are called Kinder girls. They are fun to make and are very sweet. I particularly like the reversible "frock" and little woollen shoes.

The dolls are adorable, and I also love to have a good tidy out after the decorations are put away. Maybe it's seeing all the blank spaces everywhere.
The dolls are gorgeous!!
The BBQs sound like perfect Summer Christmas celebrations, though it has been far too hot for us!!
