Merry Christmas
Yes, I know that I probably should have avoided the flash, but you get the picture. I'm very proud of this hat.

Last Colorado Totes
I may become an addict
The magic of felting is terrifying in its power. Horribly misformed, grotesque shapes are magically transformed into usable objects. It fascinates me. I think I'll needle felt the final product a little though- still a little muppety.

More Snow!
So, Monday and Tuesday's snow days were expected (sort of) and I was resigned after Wednesday's late start and school on Thursday that we were going to be in school today. The temperature was just too high to get any snow to stick. Yay unpredictability! What a way to start winter break! No school until January 7.
Not only is it all winter wonderland out there but every so often it starts snowing great big, fluffy, Hollywoodesque flakes again. Delightful.

More Kittens and Totes (and a Quentin!)

The Black Grocery Totes
Only 9 more sets to go and four of those are all designed and cut out. The sewing machine decided that it no longer wants to sew through as many layers as it used to so I had to change the strap attachment after one top took me an hour! Thank you again serger for making my life a little easier. Thankfully, the rest went considerably more quickly.
The rectangle on the one with the stripe is a pocket! I like that a lot.
The flower applique was of my own design and by far the most complex that I have attempted. I'm not pleased with the result (the curves came out a little sloppy) but I am still learning and the bag will still hold stuff.
