Merry Christmas, or midwinter holiday of your choice, from the Elephant’s Child and the Lady in the Window.
… in quite some time!

I checked on the Lady in the Window several times between September and mid-December, but she wasn’t wearing anything particularly noteworthy. Even at Halloween, when I expected that she would dress up, she was wearing just an ordinary gray-green sort of dress. Had she lost interest in entertaining us, I wondered?
Just when I was about to give up hope, our lady made a comeback.
My son says that her halo, which doesn’t show in this midday picture, lights up at night. I’ll have to pay her another visit at dusk and report on what I see.
The return of the mannequin.

But then, on June 10, 2005, she appeared in this:
And she’s been a bride ever since.
Now that the quilt show is over, I promise to keep you much better informed about her comings and goings. Plus, of course, any little doings of mine that might be of mild interest.
