Hark the Herald Angels Sing!

Here are our three angelic girls all dressed up and ready for the church Christmas party. It was a "back to Bethlehem" theme and everyone was dressed as someone from the era. Hubby looked fabulous in his recycled doona cover shepherds outfit! The girls decided I looked like a 'girl in the village' after they saw me dressed up :P
Great fun!

Merry Christmas Mummy!

I probably shouldn't post this as it might jinx things but Miss 2 and 7mths has had 3 days in a row with no accidents and 2 dry nights inbetween.
Here's hoping all my Christmas wishes come true!

Mmm...gingerbread house!

Here's one I made this week at our Christmas Relief Society get together. We were all rather sticky by the end of the evening but a lovely time was had by all. Those white icing spots on the picture above are evidence that miss 2 can still reach the house even though it was on top of the very high mantle. Sigh. It now lives in a higher cupboard til Christmas so I can show it my folks who are driving down from the big smoke. Everyone here is super excited about them coming and it looks like it will be a very Merry Christmas :)

Looking for a vintage pattern

I know this is a really long shot as this company has been gone for almost a decade but I'm desperately searching the pattern pictured above in the smaller sizes, 4,5,6,7 ish.
I'll have two of the girls at school next year and it will be three before too long so to be able to make my own would be a real blessing! I've already sourced the fabric....and I do have a very holey second hand dress here which I could cut up for a pattern as a last resort but I'm not sure I would be able to get it back together right!!
Please could you ask around.....or have a look in your local op-shop or even grannies sewing box.
Big THANKS!
