Wanna talk Christmas? Making any of your own decor? Planning presents? Writing your own wish list? Whatcha got going on that's Christmas-y?
I posted these in the October thread, but I'm working on stockings to make my own advent calendar:
I'm thinking about doing some kind of garland for our "kid" tree...not sure exactly what kind, maybe felt circles stitched together? Or pom poms? I also got some polymer clay to try making a few ornaments. Got suggestions?
Don't think I'm sewing any presents this year, but that could change yet. I actually have two wall quilts in progress for my parents, and a quilt for my son, if I finish any of them up next month, that might be it.
My wish list is FULL of crafty stuff; I'd love an embroidery machine, but I don't think that'll happen. But some new storage would be nice, and there's a series of Quilter's Academy books I want, maybe some cool rulers and a spinning cutting mat.

The one thing currently on my wish list is a serger.
No plans as of yet for christmas crafts, will depend on how things go with baby #2 (due in 2 weeks), I'm hoping to get a little sewing time while on maternity leave, but that might be a pipe dream. Need to at least make baby his own stocking (I made ones for the rest of the family a couple of years ago, they're just cut out felt glued onto velour stockings, Star Wars themed, of course. Mine is leia, DD has BB-8, and MH has crossed lightsabers. Maybe I'll do a porg or R2 for the baby.

All the knitting I have been doing lately has been for Christmas gifts. I still have two more things (a shawl and a throw blanket) to get started. Thankfully, the baby blanket I'm working on now is going quickly.
