:welcome: to another week! Always exciting to start out the first of the year with 52 weeks and then it dwindles down and down and I still have 3/4ths of my list. Well, granted I have did things for bdays and such and add more as time goes on.

Would like to sew on potholders some more and try the towels sometime this week. I need to get some more tulle for scrubbies (I think everybody will get scrubbies) and then I will crochet on wreaths. Those items will be lunch time activities.

Have to clean house so that will interrupt my work time!!!!!!

What are your crafting plans for the week?

That's a good idea Lana. A visual to remind you what has to be done. I need that
I didn't get to the rag garland last week I'll start this afternoon I think

I probably shouldn't have gone to the glass fusing class yesterday, now I have lots of ideas to make some pieces lol

My main thing is to start on the fleece Jammie pants. Also, want to do a bunch of hand warmers.

Pammie, I saw some hand warmers on a blog or pinterest that looked like they would be neat. Jammies sound warm. In my night shirt and legs are cold!

p.a., I love the angel in your picture.

DD, always so much we would like to do.

My drilldance team is having a stall at a nearby area on December 6th so we have been busy making things. I am doing a lot of Christmassy hairbows to sell. I would also like to make some vintage inspired gift tag that I have book marked from Pinterest. It will be quite hot over the next few days here so that will give me the opportunity to sit and craft.

Greetings!

I've got the quilt sandwiched and have stitched in the ditch for a couple of rows. Also making good progress on the afghan for DH (I do need to knit at least 4 more rows on the afghan today to keep up with my minimal challenge), finished up a knit ruffle skirt for DGD, a "bunny blanket buddy" for my "hope chest" (hoping for another grandchild) someday, and finished a CCS castle motif to be made into an ornament for DGD.

I made 24 hair bows, 24 gift tags, and wrapped a few pot holders/cookie cutters, and decorated 6 Christmas ornaments. Also started making signs for my drilldance team supporters called our Spirit Squad. Posted pictures in albums, but they are upside down.
