YOP Week #22

 

Finishing up some things.....finally!  The Frida Kahlo basket is done!  I am a little disappointed as the stiffener used is not holding the bag up as much as I would wish.  It is sagging a bit.  Oh well, I'm sure once it is stuffed with things it will stand straight.

It is a big bag!  About 14 to 15 inches on each side and the bottom.  It will hold a lot!

I'm almost done with the ornaments............I put the initials and date on each of them...

I broke out my old rag rug and sewed more strips together so I could crochet them into the rug..........I sewed a ball of red print strips together which will get crocheted into the rug today..........

I  don't have any "haul" but I did order my sock yarn for my Christmas Eve cast on.  It is called "Whoville" from the movie The Grinch.  I still have my Christmas Day project to kit up and supplies to order for my Christmas presents to me.  I have so many plans for this coming YOP!  I know we don't start until July but I think a New Year evaluation and some additions  might be in order.  Not only because of the New Year but also there is my birthday, January 4th, which is always a time for me to set my goals for the year and beyond.  So, I am gathering ideas............ 

These are cute little burp cloths for baby gifts or fancy cleaning rags! LOL!

Pretty washcloths...........

This quilt would be quite an undertaking but it is beautiful!

This coming week I am hoping to finish up all the Christmas projects, wrap everything and get it out in the mail.  There's decorating and Christmas cards and cleaning too.  For the grands this year I decided on getting them the Disney channel.  Between online learning and Covid and the long Iowa winters, I thought it would help keep their spirits lifted.  They're not big t.v. watchers and they love the outdoors but this year has been a bit different so hopefully they will like it.

That's all for this week....I'm still eating leftovers and loving it!  More time for crafting!  

Happy Trails!!!
