What an amazing Christmas!
We did a Polish Christmas with Grandma Marian, Mark and Nicola.
We have been eating herring, pierogi’s, carp and poppy cake and listening to Polish Christmas carols. What a lovely evening!
Lula has got so many presents but the number one has to be the QUILT.
There are no words to describe the genius. So much effort and love went into this that we were left nearly speechless and tearful.
When Marian told me that she is making a quilt for Lula and said that she wanted to incorporate Lula’s roots I have never in my wildest dreams imagine a piece of work like this!
Like a masterpiece tapestry fit for a museum with the true spirit of New Zealand.
The sun that turns into the moon, Mount Taranaki, a waterfall that sounds like one when you touch it, an amazing magic forest full of creatures, little secret pockets hiding surprises like a little lamb, frog, pukeko, buzzy bee, lizard, ladybird or kiwi with his egg, a weta and tui birds. Then the long white cloud on top which creates rain when you pull the beautiful see through blue fabric from underneath.
Grandma Marian you are a complete genius, you have truly outdone yourself and left us all astonished!!! You gave Lula a piece of your heart. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Merry Christmas everyone!
