This past Friday evening my friends, Abbie and Pilar, hosted a Christmas Giving Party. Each guest brought 2 yds of fleece and we made no-sew tie lap blankets for a small assisted living center nearby. We were spread out all over Abbie’s house. In her kitchen, living room…even the garage. It was great fun! We also played some games, had an ornament exchange and ate some delicious goodies.
Speaking of delicious – have you ever had Gluhwine (pronounced Glu-Vine)? This is a delicious German (I believe) mulled wine that you drink warm – not room temperature, but actually heated up. Friday was my first time to have it. I loved it…perfect for a cold evening.

I had great helpers with my blankets!
We picked the garage - it was cooler and the Gluhwine really heated me up! :)

How fun!!! And such a wonderul thing to do for other!!!
I have never had Gluhwein but have always wanted to try it. I know you can get it all little stalls throughout the Christmas markets in Germany. I would love to do that someday!
That's a wonderful thing to do and in the true Christmas spirit.
What a fun, caring and generous party, Amy! I love this! You are so neat!
