I've
been a busy little seamstress! Here's the new snuggle quilt I made
for my mama, called Christmas Stars. It looks so festive draped over
her bed. A patchwork Christmas stocking made a nice door decoration.
Sewing
isn't the only needlework I enjoy. My crochet hook has been flying
through a couple of scarves, a vest, and now I'm working on a cardigan. I learned a couple of
new stitches, too. Did I
mention there was a yarn sale last weekend?
The
only problem is with all that crochet and online Christmas shopping, my
right index finger is getting a workout! I need some Aleve for
the joint pain...or some spiked eggnog could do the trick.
Gifts of time and love are surely the basic ingredients of a truly merry Christmas. ~Peg Bracken
