My remaining 6 gingerbread cookie trays are done! All that has to be done to them is a coating of spray clear coating. I need to wait until it stops snowing to do that though! So...6 more gifts done...except for the cookies that is. :) YIPPEE!!!!!!




Making cookies with my nephew!!!!! I just love the traditions of Christmas time. I love making cookies with my nephews. I made some with my nephew Jason last weekend, and today with my nephew Mikey. Mikey is 3, and he really enjoyed the speinkles and the colored sugar. These are the fanciest chocolate M&M cookies I have ever made. We had tons of fun, and we no longer have any sprinkles left.

This is a gift for one of my friends. It is just beautiful, I finished it late last night.


These Pictures just don't do this circular scarf justice. It turned out so beautiful. It is made with Copper Disco yarn, and was stitched on size 15 needles in the round. I just love it.

My sons are finally getting along a little better...now if I could only teach my eldest son to share his toys!



This is a loom hat I made for my friend Michelle's husband Mark. He is a Green Bay Packers fan.

It should be noted that I risked my life making this hat since my husband Bill is a total Chicago Bears fan...and to have green and yellow in the same house is a huge sin!


Another gift Done!!

This is a necklace scarf for my sister-in-law to match her mittens (see prior post)

1 of 7 Gingerbread Tray Gifts DONE!!! Yippee! I saw the pattern on the Carol Duval Show, and thought I had to make them. http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/shows_cds/article/0,2045,DIY_15079_2354665,00.html I made my face and body a little more detailed and added the glitter...everything has to have glitter for me to be happy! :)

A christmas gift done! my sister-in-law requested a long pair of mittens.

The pattern used: http://www.knittingnow.com/patterns/gauntlet_pat.asp

I used Patons Divine in Rose Chantilly.

I brushed the inside of the mittens to make them fluffy and warmer. They go up to my elbow, and I want a pair for myself now.



Here is our new addition.
I haven't slept in days and we are having a rough time getting our other dog to like the new one, but it is slowly getting better.

Only one problem, can't figure out a name...any ideas?
