Finished doing the eyes, mouth and buttons of the felt gingerbread men. Now I need to embroider all around the and stuff them... that will keep me busy for some time. I have 32 cut out (did not have enough felt or would've done 40)

Greetings!

Family visiting, so I have projects to do with DGD and with DD. I hope to find a little time for some CCS and maybe some knitting.

Will continue crocheting the knee blankets. Quite comforting sitting on the couch with a blanket on my lap and I am achieving something. A win/win.

I worked on blanket stitching the ornaments I kitted up to do while riding in the car. I thought I had them all done and when I looked in the back seat there was one on the floor. I will do that one tonight before I go to bed. Tomorrow, I hope to add some embellishments and they will be ready to package and send or give.

I will be spending the next few days planning and looking for craft ideas that I can give as gifts.
We are at that stage of the year aren't we?

Rug class was today. Learned a lot, the instructor/ designer was great. I left early because of my back and the long drive home otherwise all the appliqué work would be done. Shouldn’t take much to finish it up. I bought several kits to make as gifts for next year. I could have shopped for my own fabric but this will be so much easier for me.

And my daughter just asked me to make a Scrapbook of my grandson’s 1st and 2nd year for her gift the year, Yes ma’am, happy to oblige. I‘m Looking into a few other ideas for other people.

I cut out and kitted some more ornaments, will sew them while driving to MI and back. I yet to get to the craft room and embellish the other ornaments I made. Decided to wait until I had them all done. I also have enough of the fabric left to make a throw pillow for DH.

I made a crocheted cat toy for Axl out of scraps. I started a pet mat for donation.
