I usually make most of my presents every year. Last year I made scarves, and the year before that, checkbook covers. This year I haven't had as much time to make things because I purchased and moved into a new house, so the entire fall was busy with packing, visits to the bank, and looking at property. I ended up with a new house that I love, and the best part is that the mortgage is less than rent!
But I am still crafting. I have five different cross-stitch projects--obsessive, I know. I am still working on The Rose of Sharon, but I had to take a break from it after having to tear out 500 stitches (amazing what being 1 stitch off will do to it!). I'm also knitting scarves, crocheting a blanket, and sewing stuff for the house. I'm experiencing craft ADD right now, because I can't stick to one project!

Felicitations on the new house my dear. My you be nothing but blissful there.
Warmest regards,
Simone.
Good lord - you & your craftiness! It's a wonder there's room in that brain of yours for all your history knowledge, what with all the crocheting, quilting, needlepoint, etc you do. It's enough for me to try & do simple washcloths right now! Glad that things are going well with the house. It is another resolution of mine to visit my friends more, and I sincerely, sincerely hope (sometime in the spring) to come visit this new house of yours! (and the great city of Florence!)
FYI- just updated my blog! Let's see if I'll have an entry for February! :-D
