I don't, can't, and won't overdo Christmas. I don't have the energy, means, or desire. But I do give a few, quietly thought out, silently executed gifts to a few key people in my life ( Read more... )

Oh my god, that pillowcase is awesome. Your mind astounds me. And your embroidery skills!

The recipient of such a gift will be privileged to drool upon it, every night. Hopefully the recipient of the cross stitch will not be drooling upon it, unless the party's really rolling.

Thanks lady! I wish I had just a BIT more time to add some swirlies and hearts to the pillowcases, but I simply don't. You would be surprised how long just these bare bone versions took. And I was going to embroider both sides when I embarked on this project--forget that!

I think both recipients will like the gifts and they certainly both deserve them.

Thanks for the kind words and I hope your holiday is the best it can be.

those are ridiculously precious.

Thank you! I secretly want to keep them for myself. But I have vowed, in the new year, to do less drinking and more crafting--and to keep a few of the things I make. Geez. Now if I could drink AND craft at the same time, ah, heaven. Though I'm not sure it's the best idea.

Those are all FAB!

Thank you--I always have the best of intentions with homemade gifts, but they don't always turn out! These were among my better experiments!

I'm noticing, Dr. Freud, that Hans has no leash...

He's a circus dog J. Well, he's an ex-circus dog. He doesn't require a leash.

I had to get a photo of the Homo Sweet Homo because people think I make this shit up! I don't! I wish I could be there when the recipient opens the package and sees it for the first time--he will howlie! Have a great Christmas and a happy new year yourself sista!
