A Christmas Without Bears?
I spent the weekend decorating for Christmas like many of you. My husband drug out all the boxes, stacked them in the center of the garage and asked “are you doing the bears this year?” ” Think I’ll skip a year” I said. “Maybe they’re getting a bit old, year after year.”
And then tonight I found these pictures…
“So you’re done now, right? I can put all these boxes away?” “Yes, all finished!”, I said. But that was before I found the photos.
I don’t have the heart to tell him my little friends can’t sit outside in plastic bins. I don’t know where I’ll put them now that all the decorations are up, but they have to come in and be part of our holiday tradition. Call me sentimental. He’s put away all the boxes so I think I’ll just link him to this blog post. Who can resist these bears?
While I’m working on finding a place for my bears, I found another picture for you! Would you like to win a few of these tiny little bundles? Packages of 2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ squares of Lily & Will II!
Leave me a comment and 12 of you are going to win 3 little bundles each of yellow and aqua Lily & Will II! Oh the fun you can have with these little squares! I’ll announce the 12 winners Friday December 3rd!
Have a great week everyone!
Hugs,
Anne

oooooh, you have to find a place for the bears!!I made bears from my grandmothers’ old mink coat and they are a part of our Christmas tradition (it seems like my grandmother is still here every Christmas). The rest of the year they sit in the childrens’ old bassinet, but come Christmas, they are front and centre, sure hope hubby gets the hint.
Would love to win these squares, what a fun fabric line. They would make a great quilt for a new baby due in the new year.

Love these bears! I have one special holiday bear dressed in a red taffetta plaid that only comes out to play in Dec . I’d love these squares, several babies on there way in my family this year, oh yeas!

Love this cute fabric line. Would love to win some 2 1/2 in squares. A couple of years way back when children were little, I did a bear Christmas tree and put them all in the tree. I made aprons and elf caps for all the bears. Cute tree and many fun memories.
