Crafting the night away


I've been trying to spend a little more time crafting for fun (as opposed to crafting for work, which is also fun, but there's a little more pressure involved) the past couple weeks. And I'm determined to make a quilt and some wearable outfits this year! So far I've knitted a couple neck cozies with yarn purchased at last year's Stitches West, and stitched a reverse appliqué t-shirt from an Alabama Chanin kit. Now I'm determined to finish knitting the sweaters that I started ages ago, before we leave for NY on Sunday. Wish me luck!

what a smart way to begin your new year crafting!
hmmmm...
smarts and crafts...

(BTW, your stitches, in knitting as well as hand-sewing - are so EVEN!)

Oh I hear you on this one - not that I make things for a living but that normally I am making gifts - so this month I have had a blast at making things for ME for a change! :)
