We just finished a busy Christmas season around here. I was especially busy during December trying to make my gifts thoughtful and as many homemade as I could. In October I purchased a new sewing machine. My old one (that is in storage) I have had since 1974. It was the first thing I purchased after becoming a full time employee at the bank. (I was making a cool $1.90 an hour) This one is a fantastic new Viking Embroidery machine. I found it on sale at a great discount! It is way cool, and I have been learning a lot this past couple of months. I know I should have taken pictures of all my projects, but somehow that didn't happen. I did get a new camera for Christmas, so maybe I will figure out how to post pictures to enhance my ramblings. Anyway, this past couple of months I have made:
 |
| Christmas Stockings |
11 Christmas stockings
8 Christmas pillowcases
4 pairs of Christmas jammies
3 personalized aprons
2 sets of monogrammed towels
2 appliqued onsies
2 bags
1 appliqued t-shirt
1 flannel nightgown (with a matching one for Addie's new American Girl Doll)

I may be forgetting some, but you can see I have been busy and having a lot of fun! I hope to post more often this year. I hope I have fun things to post about. To all my readers, (all 3 of you) Happy New Year, lets hope 2011 is great for all of us.
