It was a busy day so I never got around to wishing my online friends a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I also opened the final gift in the 12 days of Christmas swap. This pretty little quiltlet was from the hostess Theresa. She also included some fun fibers and a pencil to play with. My daughter has already laid claim to the stocking hat bedecked pencil.
I think I was feeling like I needed a little warmth and sunshine. The flowers are fabric yo-yo’s.
The sentiment reads:
It’s the little things that make life Big.
This is what I spent the morning making! The first 6 or so didn’t turn out but the next 50+ turned out just fine. Tricky little buggers to make but oh so good to eat!
So I’m a little behind…
On Day 10 I got this cute little book from Carol. Thanks so much! It will be fun to play in.
Today I got to open my gift from Elizabeth.
My kids have been guessing…they guessed a pack of gum. Not so but they were on the right track! It’s an assemblage made from an Altoid tin. Very cool I love it! 
Thank you!
I picked up this sweater at a garage sale over the summer for $1.
I didn’t like the way it fit but did like the pattern. Last year I saw a tutorial on making hats from sweaters…wish I could credit them but I can’t remember where I saw it.
I ended up with two hats. I like the square one with the little tassels the best. The braided tassels I made from some black yarn I had laying around.
I still have a bunch of sweater left…I’ll have to do some experiments. Maybe ornaments for the tree? Who knows but I’ll post anything that is successful.
Every morning I’ve been waking up to find this at my front door.
Today I made a draft stop to hopefully help…my only worry is that it will be froze to the door in the morning.
The curtains in my son’s room and the ones on the patio door have both been froze to the 3M window kits we put on them. I can’t even imagine how cold it would be if they weren’t on!
I filled the fabric tube with old towel scraps and used baggies filled with rice and beans. Last time I made one of these we had a cat so I had kitty litter laying around.
I got these super cute earrings! I’ve been wanting to open these since I pulled all the packages out of the box. They were packed in an organza bag so I could see it was jewelry. Marie put my name on the tag…she knows I like PINK. Thanks so much!
