Sisters

When two sisters are close in age you have to take this into consideration when making gifts, especially when they are still young. Like for like, and all that. For once I am not talking about my own girls, but someone else's. So two girls and favourite colours. The same gift, but not quite.


Add in a couple of treats and I think that their presents are sorted.


I would love to stay and chat, but I am off to help out at a school Christmas party. Then there is a carol concert tonight. And two more gifts to make. Because I counted wrong the other day when I looked at the list of what was left to do. But it's all good. I can do it. Honest, I can.

  4. I just came over from Caroly at Sew Darn Quilt, I am amazed at how much you get done, plus you BLOG, truly you are an amazing women. I have to make same like presents for my kids even though I have a boy and girl, when my daughter gets a barbie, my son wants one, when he gets a car, my daughter wants one, lol.

  22. I know how that is. My nephews are 18 months apart in age, so they tend to get same but different from me. One is getting a knitted monster, the other is gettng a crocheted one! From next year my brother's daughter will have a sibling too, only they will be 11 months apart!
