Chickens and Canvas

I have been internet shopping for Christmas presents. Such fun! I get to sit here in my jammies and spend money without a guilty conscience. hahaha

Anyway, I had a brilliant idea for presents this year. I am giving lots of people on my list, a chook! Yep, you heard right. A chook, chicken, hen ~ of the feathered variety. Real live ones, too! Now before you think I've gone mad (well madder than normal) click here, then click on the Smiles section. It takes a little while for the video clip to upload, but it's good.
I have been buying other things for presents, too. Got some good discounts as well, but I can't show you them, in case peoples are watching ... shshshshsh....

Of course, old habits die hard and I have found some things for myself. But I've only bought absolute essentials. Things I needed. Honest!
Like these lovely light weight cotton canvas fabrics. Ordered them from Shanghai, (with some trepidation). Aren't they great? Wonderful for bags. I seriously want to get into bag making next year.




Merry Christmas (in Shanghaianese)

  1. The fabrics are beautiful, when you make things with them, you must show some pictures.
