So many secrets this time of year...

This time of year is particularly difficult for blog posts.  But luckily, I have lots of "help" in the sewing room!  This snuggle bug doesn't understand why I'm not constantly petting him instead of working with that silly fabric!  I can't even take pictures without him getting in the way.   I do love him, though!
 
What a poser. ;o)
 
Virtually everything I'm working on can't really be revealed at this point because they're all Christmas presents!  So, I'll be a little creative in order to post SOMEthing.

This is something I am marking for some reason.
 


These are some fabrics I really like.
 

This is also marked for some reason...
 


I wonder what's going on here.


Not to worry.  I am taking lots of photos of the process and will post after the holidays the final products.   Needless to say, I've met some challenges.  But I am enjoying myself.  That's all that matters... right?

It's That Time of Year!

This weekend I got the tubs of Christmas fabric out to assess where I am, what fabrics I have, prep the last few fat quarters (wash, trim, iron and fold), and start planning some of my Christmas projects.




I have plans for these, although, probably not together.


This next set may or may not get made into a stocking.  It's a difficult individual and I'm not positive they would like/want the red.  They didn't want anything "whimsical" and I think they might consider the floral on the red a type of whimsy.


I like this set, but think this recipient might deserve a bit more funk.
