All around the City from the largest Christmas tree in NSW
To hotel foyers
A Christmas tree made up entirely of teddy bears (first one I have seen like this)
Office building lobbies
And to laneways

Which all made for a very festive feeling while I made my way through the City.
After my day out it was time to make a start on the Christmas sewing list. All 5 bags that my mother requested are now finished and have been delivered to her.
Next items on the list to be given priority were the 5 small notebooks that were to be covered
Along with the 5 mini pot holder grabbers
While the sewing was happening this audiobook was keeping me company.
And my bedtime reading is
While it is fiction it is based on fact. Set in 1946 it is the story of over 650 Australian war brides travelling to England aboard the Victoria to meet up with the men that they married during wartime.
So getting back to my Christmas sewing list that only leaves the set of three placemats that need to be sewn. The fabrics have been chosen all ready to go.
Hubs and I had some domestics and routine shopping to do this morning and then stopped off on the way home for some lunch. I could not pass up the rainbow bowl. It was a delicious light meal for such a hot day.
Back soon and in the meantime
Happy sewing all

You are doing super well with your sewing for Christmas Karen. The Christmas decorations look amazing.
People have a lot of imagination when it comes to Christmas decs - I love the giant parcel and the teddy bears. Nice makes ticked off your list. xx
The city is looking very festive. Mick and I had hoped to have a day trip down to see the decorations, but it is now looking highly unlikely, what with this crazy hot weather. No fun with temps in the mid 30s. You’ve done well to get all your stitching done and your lunch looks delicious.
So many lovely Christmas decorations in the city.
Your really on a roll with your sewing.
Both books look great.
Fun going and looking at the Christmas decor... some lovely ones there... you have done heaps of sewing too. I see it's going to be extra hot there so maybe more indoors activities - I would have chosen the rainbow salad too - looks yum. I enjoyed that book - nice light reading and makes you think we have come a long way as far as expectations on people...

Oooo that book is so me! On the list now. So many beautiful festive things to see.More lovely projects completed.
That’s a super great teddy Christmas tree. How fun are the displays.
Just catching up on blog reading, am a tad behind...you have been busy, new sewing machine looks great, and Christmas, I better think about that when I get home in a few days.
