Curses…Foiled again…
Brian didn’t get the job and the manager at JCPenny that was not charging me for pictures got fired. (Not because she was giving me free pictures.) So the pictures may not be flowing so freely anymore. That has been our weekend. I sure love this staying home bit. I have had time to do all sorts of projects. Christmas is nearly done. Last year I did nothing and this year I have started early so it doesn’t get overwhelming. Below are some of the project I have finished. I still have to complete Serra~V~’s stocking and am doing a few x-tra’s just in case.
Serra~V~ just took me by surprise this very moment. I put her on the changing table while I write because she is happy there. I look over at her and she is rolled over on her side and nearly off the edge. That is a long way down. I think the rolling milestone is not far off and I need to be very careful where I put her.
These are two of the finished products. The stockings are pieced quilt and crosstitching and the boxes are just that, painted gift boxes. Ya’ll know how I love boxes. They make great gift containers or just gifts.
The nativity scene is done in crayon. Who would have thought? And the last one is an on-going project that just keeps on getting better everyday. We put different wrapping on it every day and they all look so cute we have a hard time deciding which looks the cutest. I think this will be the gift that keeps on giving. I don’t think we will give it away. This one is for us.

Pam, you are so creative. I am amazed at the cool things you turn out. And I have to agree with you – that last little package, the one you and Brian did together, is the cutest of all! ~G
cool stuff pam. who drew the manger scene. It looks like it was done by a child. did you do it for someone else.
Dallas, I copied it from someone. But, that’s the point. I did it for my own Christmas collection. Pam
