As the festive season twinkles into view, with streets adorned in shimmering lights and homes echoing with the joyous sounds of carols, I find myself reflecting on the year that has swiftly passed us by. It is a time to pause, to appreciate, and to spread the warmth of love and kindness that this season symbolises.
To my cherished followers, who have journeyed with me through the highs and lows of this year, I extend my heartfelt gratitude. Your unwavering support and encouragement have been the melody to my song, the harmony to my music. As we gather with our loved ones, basking in the glow of Christmas trees and the warmth of crackling fires, let us remember the magic that unites us – the universal language of music, love, and compassion.
This Christmas, I wish for each of you a time of joy, peace, and serenity. May your homes be filled with laughter, your hearts with contentment, and your lives with music that uplifts and inspires. Let us carry the spirit of Christmas into every day, fostering kindness and understanding in a world that so dearly needs it.
As we bid farewell to another year, let us look forward with hope and optimism. The future is a blank canvas, waiting for us to paint our dreams and aspirations. Let us embrace it with courage and an open heart.
As a small token of my appreciation, I invite you to join me in a celebration of this wonderful season. George and I recorded this special Christmas video featuring a selection of beloved Christmas songs. These melodies, steeped in tradition and filled with emotion, are my gift to you. I hope they bring a smile to your face and warmth to your heart.
Please take a moment to watch the video and immerse yourself in the festive spirit. Share it with your friends and family, and let the music be a bridge connecting our hearts this Christmas.
From the bottom of my heart, Merry Christmas to you all. May this season bring you everything you wish for and more.
And Merry Xmas to you both, and the year you dream of to follow.
Thank you Martin, I wish you the same.

Thank you for your lovely message Resa, we’ve just returned from a family visit in Romania 🇷🇴 it’s been a whirlwind month. I’m glad you are crossing the bridge and virtually visiting with us. Merry Christmas to you, now to try to fit my top over Christmas with Mums help (fingers crossed).
Best wishes
Charlotte
Oh wow! I know you had a wonderful time in Romania.
The top is easy. I’m here if you need help.
IF YOU CAN:
Put the top on inside out.
Using decent size safety pins, pin a line on each side of the back, centred between the zip & side seams.
Take it off. Sew as I suggested. You can big baste first. Then sew a smaller running stitch, by hand. Turn and try on. If it fits, check the stitches. If need. be sew another line.
Using a pressing cloth…PRESS! Steam is good.
IF you can’t get the top on inside out, do the same procedure.
However, you will need to take take new pins and pin the lines from the inside. Don’t take the first pins out until you are happy about the positioning of the new pins.
Problems?
Take a pic where you are at, with notes, send a mail. I will attempt to help.
DO NOT CUT ANYTHING.
If the 2 seams are overly large and you want to remove some fabric, let me know via mail. I have tips for that, too!
Best Wishes back at ya! xx
I’m going to enlist my Mums help and if necessary we can try and find my sewing machine up in the loft. I‘ll get in touch to let you know how we‘re getting on. ❤️
A lovely inspiring gift 💝. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you both. Thank you for sharing your beautiful music with us.
Thank you Holly, we’re happy that you enjoyed the recording. Happy holidays to you, I hope that you have a very enjoyable time.
Best wishes always,
Charlotte 😘
Thanks you for the gift of music, not just in this video, but through the year 🙂 I’m looking to the future with just that magic you mention in mind – music, love and compassion. I’ll add the wish for peace on Earth. I am wishing you and George a wonderful holiday season and a very Merry Christmas 🙂
