Mid-November


Can you believe it's mid- November and Thanksgiving is next week? I have all these projects in mind for Christmas (both for decorating and gifts) and I just realized I'd better get started very soon. I have to finish up a couple of items I'm working on but then I'll have to focus on the holidays.

I just finished this small stuffed doll that I'll be listing on Etsy in a bit. ***

Last week, just as I was thinking of getting dinner started, my son reminded me that he needed a jester type hat for a school activity the following day. He'd mentioned needing the hat the previous week but I had forgotten all about it. Anyway, I managed to gather the materials and put together the hat in a couple of hours. My sewing machine is in the laundry room which is right off the kitchen so I was able to go back and forth between preparing dinner and working on the hat. I was lucky to have some felt in my stash that matched the juggling balls and I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out.
