"Winter,a lingering season,
is a time to gather golden moments,
embark upon a sentimental journey
and enjoy every idle hour."
Jane Young
I have embarked upon a sentimental journey,
this first day of winter...
Yes...it is my wedding dress...
put it on...
for sentimental reasons...
we were married in the winter...
although not in December.
I tried it on with the new Japanese woolen slippers...
that I decided to make ...
during an idle hour...
on my Sunday afternoon...
Wool...
well...
perfect...
suede bottoms...
and
brushed cotton covered insoles...
a fun experiment..
comfy slippers,
wool..and warm...
for the winter...
and this time...
the Japanese book had been translated..{smiles}
I'd like to gather a golden moment here...
if I may...
to get a little sentimental..
and offer some thanks...
things I should have done before...
I am thankful...
for all of your support and friendship along the way...
I have been too silent about all the recognition I have
received this past year...
I was honored by Shutter Sisters
here and here and here
and here and here
I was interviewed by the lovely Bree of Citrus hearts here
I have been given awards on several blogs...thank you all...
I do not want to forget anyone...
if I have...it was not intentional...
I have won some contests...one here and here
I have been given and blessed...
Thank you...
and
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
P.S.{I have just finished another knit...it is blocking...
and I may have another post very soon ;)}

Happy happy anniversary and many more!
I adore the photo of you teetering on the block in your fantastic slippers :)
The slippers remind me of black ballet slippers, but witty-er & warmer. One would be so glad of them come that lingering winter.
Happy Christmas, and continued wonderful exploring in the new year. xo
