I finished up the covered composition notebooks and got them all wrapped. I have 7 left to give to my guild to put in the boutique for sale at the Wichita quilt show in June.
I was told that a lady wants to buy 2 of the double towel scarves from me soon, so I went ahead and got a start on making with the 4 towels that I had on hand. It ended up that my daughter also brought home a towel from work that she wanted me to make into one of the scarves for her for Christmas too. I made that one, finished one of the other 4 and have 3 left to just sew up. I will buy a towel each time I'm out and continue to make these all year long.....at least that is my plan.
Amelia will turn 1 on January 14. I have made each of the grandchildren the jingle bell blocks for either their 1st birthday or first Christmas for years now. I went to my room and gathered my supplies and have a good start on getting her blocks done. I intend to make as many as I can and start getting them put into my Etsy shop as well. I have one set of 2 in there now, but I am going to change it to a set of 3.
I've been missing my headband to keep my ears warm with it getting so cold outside. I ran across some fancy yarn in my sewing/craft room, so sat Christmas Eve afternoon and crocheted myself a headband before the evening church service. Yes, an idea as well to make more for Christmas presents last year. While in my room yesterday I found more of the fancy yarn, so I am on a roll to getting more made!
Last, but not least, I was finally able to get to the quilt shop and use part of my gift card to buy some 505 spray. I got this little baby quilt basted......of course now I'm anxious to try to start machine quilting it, but it must wait until I get the towels done.....and I won't be home again until late Thursday night.
I did not do well at all with the challenge of completing 17 UFO's in 2017, as you can see on the sidebar that I only finished a few of my 17. I think I will edit that and add 2018, and add more of my UFO's to the list!
Our family Christmas party was awesome as usual. A little stressful with work schedules and things, but we finally were all together. Unfortunately I didn't think to take any pictures until after the gifts were opened. Here are the few shots where I attempted to get in everyone who was there.
Hoping beyond hope to be able to continue crafting and sewing as I have been this past week every week!
