Started cross stitching my soon to be great great nephew's Christmas stocking. Should be done in about 3 months, if I don't take on too much more.

Nora, I absolutely love hand made Christmas stockings. I think they are my favorite Christmas decoration. I can't wait to see how yours turns out.
Grace, your beanies are so cute! I like the gray and blue colors together! Nice job.

I completed a "starter" rug hooking kit for my daughter for her birthday. I hope I will have everything she needs. She has been wanting to make her own rugs out of denim. I cut the strips from her dad's old jeans. I have more if she needs it. I will give her the kit tomorrow. I'll try to post pics of the rug kit and some microwave bowl holders I made a while back:

I am working on a blanket for my supervisor's baby which will be arriving in the next few weeks. She is having a baby boy so I picked the blue green and the grey/tan/orange variegated from my stash. I am further along with this than usual at this time.

Grace, love the beenies. Bet they will be nice and warm! Judith, I love denim. That rug will be great. You inspire me. I want to get going on some bowl holders for myself and maybe a couple of gifts as well. Marie, lucky little boy! I'm sure your supervisor will love it. I'm going to try to get another jug jacket done today. We seem to be having a rash of babies at work these days! LOL Probable won't get everything done, going to be a busy day. Hubby has a Dr. appt. and Physical therapy as well. Keeps me hopping!!

It's a nursing cover! LOL I make one that's reversible. Really easy and quick to make. Right now I"m working on more Port pillows for padding seat belts for people with ports on their shoulders etc.

Oh Ruthie,,, wish I was not so 'crocheting challenged'... I'd love to be able to crochet baby afghans that didn't look like a lop-sided rectangle/// lol!
Here is what I did today,,,
not a very good pic,,, but you can see the top stitching in this one...
unfortunately by using my flash, some of the lighter colors got washed out... oh well,,, you get the idea.

Grace the candle mat is too cute. Linda, I really need to get going on the BOM, woefully behind, but need to catch up. Found more fabric I can use for those. I will post pictures of my retreat projects I finished over the weekend.

Grace you are not the only one that is "crocheting challenged". I could never get the hang of it either. My middle daughter crochets lots of nice things. I love the quilt! Looks really snugly warm. If I can get passed Christmas, I want to do some quilting of my own. (Have to list that under my UFO's.)
