PUPPY POST - Vlogmas Day 8

 

Siberian huskies are the cutest puppies ever - aren't they? What do you think? Or do you have a favorite pet puppy?

Well, I think Sofi and  Mila are adogable ;D that's why I have to make Christmas stockings for all the pets I love.

And, on Vlogmas  Day 1 I made stockings  for Sofi and  Freya but they were identical and I wanted  to put their names on their socks  so I did. 

I stenciled their names on each of their stockings and if you'd like to see how I did it, check out my Youtube Vlogmas post for Day 8.

And, if you make stockings for your pets, tell me all about it in the comments below.

Happy Hound Days!

Vlogmas Day 7 - Danish Gløgg or Hot Spiced Wine for the Holidays

 

If you'd like the recipe and instructions  on how to make your own perfect cup of Christmas Cheer for the  holidays, check out my YouTube Video here. 

But, let me tell you a little bit about Gløgg. 

Gløgg is commonly served in Scandinavia to celebrate St. Lucia's  Day on December 13th and then around the Christmas  holiday. It means to "mull". And although the word looks like it  would rhyme with our traditional Egg Nog, it doesn't. It sounds more like Gluck than Glog. 

Anyway, none of that  really matters because it simply tastes wonderful and might be the reason behind the age-old saying that "Christmas is the  most wonderful time of the year!" ;D And the impetus behind the Danish word Hyggelig which represents the  word for cozy and content rolled together into one word. 

Anyway, if  you try your hand at this Danish Drink, please let me know what you think of it.

Christmas Quilt for VLOGMAS Day V

 Maybe I should call this a Thanksgiving Quilt because I'm like a kid. I couldn't wait for Christmas to gift this to my sister. I could barely wait to tell her I was making it for her. And, if you take a  peek down in the right-hand corner you can see a cross-stitched Christmas stocking that I gifted to my girls. I have the worst time keeping secrets or holding back on gifts. I just love to see the expressions on peoples' faces when they open their presents - and right now, I think we could all use a little more early Christmas joy. Anyway, I had  to get a little help from my friends on picking out the pattern to use. So THANKS  to everyone who voted on my poll post. This turned out better because of  all the input I received from everyone. I'm a  novice quilter and as you can see, this is a super simple quilt but I'm hoping it will brighten up a spot in my sister's house over the holidays. 

And, if you would like to see my quilting process, check out my YouTube video here on how  I  made this  quilt for my sister. And, while you're over there,  check out some of my other Christmas  projects on my VLOGMAS list. 

If you've been quilting, please share some of your projects with me in the  comment section below.
