Around Christmas I see the phrase " I believe" in reference to Santa Clause. I however feel the reference should be about The Baby Jesus instead.

I Believe.

"No more ring around the collar"

I was scrubbing out a stain on my shirt today and was reminded of a commercial from when I was a kid that was funny to me then. It's for Whisk and this man was on a boat and the stewardess loosens up his tie and tells him he has "ring around the collar". lol I guess nobody talks about that anymore as probably 90% of men don't wear white shirts with ties anymore. Times sure do change. Here is the original commercial from way back when.

One last post

I made this snowflake purse recently for fun, have no clue what to do with it but making purses is just fun for me. :)

I have been in many craft swaps lately and here are a few things I have made and some I have recieved

Here are a few swap items I have made and swapped with other crafters. I made the treek quilt with the circles. I have never quilted before and I did the free motion quilting and binding for the first time. I am happy with what I made. I in turn recieved a wonderful tree quilt too but it is interactive. I can switch out the seasons and leaves, so fun.
The other recent swap was a Dr Seuss inspired swap. I made some glass pendants, knitted/felted Cat in the Hat mini hat, charm bracelet, machine embroidered hot pad and small ring. In return I got some glass pendants too, an awesome Seuss inspired piece of pottery, an insporational wall hanging, and a journal made from a Seuss book. All great stuff and fun swaps.

New blanket

I embroidered a new blanket last night. I love the lime green color so much, it matches my kitchen but I don't need a blanket in my kitchen.
