I especially feel for the town of Yarloop. I felt relieved when the fire was finally contained, though the aftermath will be lived by hundreds for years to come. Your cross stitched Santa is very cute!! I'm looking forward to seeing what shade of white you choose for your sewing room (or at least some part of it - who am I to assume that you'll paint the walls white?!!).Jenetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03619378781482679540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1258455195417687366.post-2170838542282787192016-01-14T05:30:56.626+08:002016-01-14T05:30:56.626+08:00Es tut mir sehr leid, um die Menschen die so leide...Es tut mir sehr leid, um die Menschen die so leiden müssen.<br />Wir können froh sein, dass es uns so gut geht und wir so schön handarbeiten können. <br />Liebe Grüße<br />Käthe Käthehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00039151601969229388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1258455195417687366.post-82754050164653498752016-01-14T04:08:15.281+08:002016-01-14T04:08:15.281+08:00I'm so sadden to hear of the fires (and floods...I'm so sadden to hear of the fires (and floods).

Nature is certainly powerful and unpredictable. I live in Oregon in the US and I believe Australian firefighters flew in to the western states last year to help battle some of the fires we had here.
