Wow! What a year!! I can't believe it's coming to a close, but I'm already looking forward to another great year in 2012. Happy Holidays!!
Did all that happen in just one year. It has been a big year. Best wishes for 2012 to be as good or better.
ReplyDeleteYes, and when I review the year it's hard to believe it all happened this year. There were plenty of other things that weren't in the blog, but I tried to get at least one moment per month. It has been a great year. Happy Holidays to you!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your joy of quilts.
ReplyDeleteWe are all the better for this special gift.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
HAPPY EVERYTHING!
Happy New Year, Nyima! Let me know when you're back in Mungpoo. I have a little care package to send.
