Among this list you will find gifts that involve sewing, knitting, crochet, embroidery and some involving none of these skills. I am even planning a few extras to add to the list in the next week or so , some of which I have previewed with pictures at the end of the long list.

Wow ! So many tutorials ! Who knew ?
I think that this is what first brought me to your blog : your lazy felted rock tutorial !
It was love as first sight.
I became posessed, obsessed and filled a whole file with your archive images :)
Beauty, poetry & generosity. This is you, Margie.
And a Mathyld tassel now ?!

Thank you for all the wonderful ideas. I hope it gets cold enough here in the Mid-Atlantic to make some ice wreaths and candle holders. So fresh and, well, icy! Looking forward to winter's doldrums to get some creative tasks done.

It's nice to 'see all of what you've accomplished. I've been very lacking in the creative department & sort of struggling with that notion, so your post in a small way is a nice pick-me-up. Thank you.
