As the day is ending, I hope you all had a wonderful holiday, and your bellies are full. I'm finishing us dinner right now as we speak. Mr. D had to work today, so we're not having Christmas dinner for another hour or so. As my friends and family have dubbed me Santa's little elf helper, I have been very busy the past couple of months getting all of my gifts ready. I decided this year had to be a handmade Christmas, and every present was well received.
There were pajama bottoms with matching t-shirts which I purchased from Joanns;
reversible place mats with matching napkins;
about 28 jars of sugar scrubs, hand/body creams, body butters, sorry no pictures of the body butter;
a skirt (this picture is before hemming and adding the waistband
a dress( for some reason I don't have a really good picture of the finished dress)
2 sets of Penn State Pajama bottoms and t-shirts from Joanns( I don't know why this picture is like this. In my saved pictures it's actually right side up. Oh well.
doggie collar covers
doggie cookies
a new hoodie for Jack(I copied this hoodie from one that I purchased for Jack a couple of years ago.
new scarf for Mr. D to match a hat I made him last year; and
a hat and scarf set for my mother.
Her new coat isn't ready yet, but I cut the pattern pieces out and she's totally hands on with it and approved of the colors. The pattern is McCall 6456.
Enjoy your evening. I know I'm going to try to. It back to work for me tomorrow. So not looking forward to it, but at least it's a short week. I'm heading back to the kitchen. I've got to put my pie in the oven and make more body cream. Next up, a few Christmas goodies I received.
