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.

Holiday Pie Making

Pumpkin, apple, blueberry and chocolate, oh my!

Dragonfly Totes

Last Colorado Totes

The left one has a double pocket worked into the front - one for pencils and lists and one for extra bags. Yay!

Just three more sets to make and two are already cut out. They're for Oregonians though so I'm not on quite the same time deadline.

Before

After

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!

Even the ugly tree is beautiful in its snowy coat.

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 Totes

The only green totes, even though they don't really look it in this picture. Five sets to go...
