My Christmas Village 2009
by Lizcordysmum Nov 17, 2009 9:36 pm
I just pray it will take something this size...stitched okay but taken at an angle so ended up with white blob, sorry!
The horses are all drunk, the cows are misbehaving...the geese have been eating too many greens.
But, you can see the Three Wise Men are still riding in on their camels...and somewhere there is a cluster of the Quintuplets!
Should enlarge if you click on it.

Oh, the patience that must have taken, Liz! It's absolutely beautiful!
Takes a special kinda creative person to put something like this together Liz!

Wow! I'm here again!
Yes Lulu, it took a lot of patience, esp. with horses that want to lie down and collapsing fences! Thank you!
Pansy, thank you too...and the deer are in the very corner where the windows meet...and the moose are hill to the left of the farm animals!
It is up already so I can play with it...and try to sober up the horses.

It looks wonderful, Liz.
Something like that would never stand for more than half an hour around here. Here abide the clumsy, the careless and the mischevious.

Thank you, Laura and Inge...
The Cat is sticking to downstairs...I'm sure his eyes would widen with surprise and pleasure if he saw it. Each year he has walked about, mostly carefully...I would only find a couple of small pieces askew.
Darn, now you've got me feeling guilty!

Oh my gosh. The work and hours of it
Looks wonderful Liz
I won't be doing anything this year. All my stuff is in the basement in storage so it will stay there this year.
Another year will come
