I have been crazy busy crafting away. Have a couple of really big projects on the go!
Busy making a diagonal box stitch "gypsy blanket" from yarn scraps left over from 2012's projects. Planning to do a lot of traveling next year - I always find myself with cold knees on planes, buses and trains - not to mention while riding shotgun (hubby likes to drive with the aircon on - even when it is a bit nippy!) I crossed halfway with this project yesterday - so hoping to finish it by tomorrow.
My daughter, Dani, also loves to craft - she made a snuggly afghan for her boyfriend's mom. Quite a task to wrap something like that. I made a bag and tag using (almost a whole sheet) giftwrap. Used the Woolies gift wrap as it is quite firm. I was half asleep when calculating the dimensions and the bag turned out excessively "long". So I decided to flip over the top part - instead of inserting the handles I punched holes straight through and used the flap to make a "handle" and close the bag. Dani made the stars and decorated the bag.
