of christmas past

This may be cheating, but I'm a bit of a procrastinator when it comes to holiday crafting. I thought you might enjoy a few posts from last year's Christmas, because if I wait to show you what I'm working on this year, you'll likely see it the first week in January.

One week 'til Christmas. Plenty of time to:

Make a patchwork stocking. OR

Make some Christmas tags with leftover fabric scraps. OR

Make some pajamas for your little ones to wear Christmas morning.

This week I'm trying to be full of Christmas cheer, instead of Christmas stress, which is not nearly as fun. It's a busy week, and I would hate to have my children remember their mom harried and snappy during Christmas time. I'm still figuring out how to get everything done and stay calm and cheerful at the same time, can you relate? If you've figured it out, will you please fill me in on your secret?

I am a sewing in learning. I love sewing and should just go for it because when I do well I usually have good results, anyways I have looked at those patterns and at the pajama ones in particular and you know I do like to follow directions...and nothing would make me happier than see my children in something that I have made...or hearing my daughter say Mommy made! thanks for the great advice and encouragement!
