Come visit with me as I stitch and craft my way from one Christmas to the next - I like to have Christmas projects close by me all year. I have a particular fondness for Santas and Angels. If you have the time, leave a comment so I know you've visited.

April already ...


This is the current state of Jolly Old Fellow. I've almost finished the sky on page 4, and I'm over a third of the way through page 4. I hope to be finished page 4 and well into page 5 by the end of April. I've decided to stitch on JOF all this month, no JOF-free week for me in April.

It's been well over a week since I posted here. The time has just slipped away. We've been renovating the kitchen (new walloven and all the doors taken off, sanded, re-stained and sealed), and that has been amazingly disruptive to the normal order of things. In the process I've cleaned out and reorganised every cupboard, and discovered many 'treasures' that I had forgotten. In the past couple of weeks I have also found eBay and I've been having great fun buying and selling. I'm sure I'm making Australia Post very happy. The postman is bringing me parcels every day, and I've been visiting the local Post office frequently to mail things out. This could be my new hobby!

Great progress on the JOF. What are you selling on Ebay? It can be so addicting.

Karen, I'm selling off things I've found in my stash and have no use for (charts, kits, buttons, odd things). I am astounded by what I found in my stash when I went looking! And of course, I'm buying more stash - but different (beading supplies and fabric mostly).

Good job on JOF!! Page 4! That, in it's self, is amazing:) I'm still on page 1 on my HAED.
