Giftmas presents, round 2

It’s cold and grey and dreary outside, and my trip to Joanns today revealed that the holiday decor is quickly pushing out the fall themed stuff. I might have started to panic a bit about all the things I’m planning on making.

So I came home and, after lunch, hopped on my machine. Two more bags down. Both are with some German-themed fabric on Spoonflower since one of my friends is from Germany and the other is a German teacher.

I have at least one more bag to go, and I’m trying to work on that one today so I can call that round of gifts complete. Tomorrow I start taking a quilting class to make an adorable winter fox quilt for the Little Mr, so I’m pretty excited to start in on that.

I made progress this week on the baby gift knit, too, so hopefully I’ll have that to share with you soon, too!

    Wow, you’re really in full swing with your gift making, Marie. I hope you enjoy your quilt class. I’m looking to take one too because all I’ve ever made is quilted pillows.
    Keep up the good work!

Welcome

Pardon the garden. A phrase I’m most likely to utter anytime anyone visits the house during the growing seasons of spring through fall. Sure, there are pretty flowers and delicious veggies in there somewhere, but they might be a little hard to find amidst the mess of overgrown grass, dandelions, and weeds that have found their way in there and haven’t been pulled.
