Hi all. I would like to join in with 100 makes please. I will mainly be making cards and I am determined to make all my christmas cards this year. I am already on my way to making the first 12 as I am using up a kit I got free from a magazine ages ago - yeh. Only about another 20 kits to go lol.

Hi, Maisie, it's nice to see you over here.

I've had a mini down size. While cutting some leather i've semi broken a craft knife. It's a super cheap plastic one with a blade that snaps off - and it was nearly finished blade wise -but because of the break I'm not risking it cutting my hand. i **think** i have another one - so will look. If not I will be treating myself to one - the last one may have been 39p (possibly bought about 10 years ago) - although i'm sure the next may be a little more it won't be an expensive one.

I've made a load more pages for probably 2 more junk journals which I will maybe assemble this weekend.

I'm glad people have been busy :):)

Morning everyone :hello:

Have spent the week clearing and sorting through the stash - yikes there is alot! I have put some aside that I know I wont use for my mum to see if she wants any otherwise it can go on fleabay.

Going to start my first make this weekend - a small Xmas cross stitch. Will be quick to make and should be done before the end of January so will keep me on track for one a month target. Also a nice break from Button's quilt.

Hope everyone has a good weekend

Well, I'm finally on my way for 2017.

Here are cards for a new baby and for his grandparents. I have almost finished his playmat; I just have to handstitch the binding, so that'll be done on Sunday.

I'll change my counting method in line with all of you, so that's 2 down from a revised target of 200.
