I’m still here! I’ve been busy getting out all the orders out from my Christmas sale, which keep me super busy but was also super fun! Thanks everyone who placed orders! I also went to two Christmas parties last Saturday and so it seems Christmas is in full swing.

The other night nothing good was on TV, which is how I usually end my night, basking in its blue glow. I’m usually so tired I can’t bring myself to do anything else and to just be entertained for a few hours is heavenly. But we are out of good TV now. And I was thinking of Christmas projects I wanted to do. So I started to make a tie for one of Theo’s stocking stuffers using this tutorial.

I spent my few evening hours under my task light stitching this baby up. I didn’t get too fussy about it because as I was stitching and ironing I realized it is probably too big for him. And then when he does get around to wearing it, it will soon be stained by M&M or fruit snack drool—treats that we use to pacify him in sacrament at church.

But still, I enjoyed giving it a go. And I think I’ll have to make just one more.
