OT - I'm going to be pretty quiet for a while
Things are ramping up for the holiday season here. I have a lot of things to do, and
if I can keep myself off the computer except for about an hour a day, I can do them and have time to breathe. This coming week is my birthday, and we're going to my parents' for Thanksgving (I get to meet Kalera on the way down...gibber, gibber) Next Saturday, I'm teaching a beginning quilting class at my mom's church, and very much looking forward to that. The following week will be a frenzy of chorus and ballet rehearsals, as I get ready for the Tacoma Symphony's Sounds of the Season concert, and Aleesha gets ready for the Nutcracker. Those performances are spread over three consecutive weekends before Christmas. Somewhere in there, I have to make a sparkly clean house (for me, so I can enjoy my decorations), and get a couple of quilts finished. I have my Christmas gifts 90% done, and they'll be mailed off on the 15th, on time. I'm not gonna stress this year. Just not. So far, so good. By this time last year, I was a mess, but this year, there's a lot more energy to do what needs doing, and I'm totally excited to have my first pain free Christmas in 10 years! Anyway, just had to share. I'll still be reading, and responding sometimes, but fairly quiet. You know where to find me if you want to. Hugs and love to all. -- Jalynne - Keeper of the Quilt for ME club list Queen Gypsy (snail mail available upon request) see what i've been up to at www.100megsfree4.com/jalynne |

Yep! I just have to finish a couple of zippered bags and get everything all wrapped
up and mailed off. Insane, isn't it? Seriously, though, I started in August, so that I wouldn't have a last minute panic. Seems to have worked well. -- Jalynne - Keeper of the Quilt for ME club list Queen Gypsy (snail mail available upon request) see what i've been up to at www.100megsfree4.com/jalynne "Dr. Sooz" wrote in message ...

Do you personalize your zipper bags, such as fishing fabric for a
fisherperson, a beady theme for a beader? And then do you tuck related items into the bags? I think they are a great idea! Find a single item to make that is fun and fairly easy to make that will be appropriate for a lot of people you want to remember on a holiday and go for it!!! This year Im combining my new love of beads with quilting, making rotary cutter IDs for a few of my fave stitchers. They are slightly smaller versions of bracelets so they give me a chance to practice new stitches and bead combos. I like your attitude J, get the basics out of the way and leave yourself room to truly relax and enjoy your holidays the way you want to.
