  • Count me in. Had loads of fun, but like many started a little late in the year and ended up with some very late nights!! Going to make a list of things I want to do and then make them throughout the year.

    yep count me in as well hoping the run up to christmas is better next year than this year-i was making record bowls at 11pm last night but all i made went down well
    this was the first year i have given anything crafty as pressiues and didnt realise how organised i would have to be and how much time things would take but I KNOW FOR NEXT YEAR LOL

    I'd like to join if I may. I love anything crafty (although not very good)! Snowman soups, pots of gold, flannel cakes/muffins and the sweets I made went down brilliantly, and that was only after finding the thread 4 weeks ago - imagine what they would be like after a whole year to plan!!!

    I'm pretty sure I could find a large cheap fleece throw for much less than buying the real thing.

    Ooohhh there are lots of people keen to get crafty! I am looking forward to hearing and seeing all your ideas!
    Taking responsibility one penny at a time!
  • I'd like to join if I may? I've just joined the cross stitch thread as well-looks like I'm going to be busy this year! My only idea of something I'd like to make is a garland of stuffed fabric christmas trees as a decoration for next year. Like the idea of the hand warmers as gifts too.
