Well I got distracted by christmas shopping and ended up only making 2 "mistletoes" giftpacks. On the plus side they did use up some card, patterned paper, cello bag, theead and ribbon so I'm counting them as another 2 towards my total

Stashbusted some paper to make 5 envelopes for odd sized cards. (And wasted some more paper in the process, but I won't count that even although it's gone from my life forever.) That's about it. I've been doing quite a bit with new projects - started stationery today for son's wedding. Also been knitting and getting organised for starting on a dress for my granddaughter. It will involve a wee bit of stash busting, but that's a long story for another time!
Keep up the good work everyone.Sewing 88/COLOR]Woollies 19Card s 91Reading 37/400 -

I've always loved Beauty and the Beast, so as soon as I saw this in one of the shops over there I snapped it up! Don't be too hard on me - I promise I'll start crafting again soon.0 -
I have two to add to the total.
Was given a copy of prima Christmas magazine. This had a kit and I have completed two little tree decorations. They were only small - however we've had no heating for a week - and apparantly I loose my crafting mojo when bundled under blankets and hugging a hot water bottle. I did them on the train to/from work yesterday. It's made me think of all the other kits I have which I will sort into hand sewn and machine needed to choose which I will do next week on the train.
I had wanted to get my autumn bunting out of the way - but I don't have any fabric the right colour to go with the leaves I was planning to use to make it look autumny... So may postpone and go straight to spring bunting. Or even winter bunting that is not Christmas bunting...
We have a day out planned to avoid the coldness that is the house. And will have a bath at my partners mums house. But still it's just miserable.
It SHOULD be resolved on Monday. If it isn't I may have too move out until it is. I need to be warm and dry some washing... Not cool. Haha
Hope you all have great weekends. Xxxx

Rather a cheat, but I've just parcelled up a load of crafty stuff to send to a lady in Canada who wants to make a scrapbook themed on the UK.......0
