I’ve made a little more progress on the nine patch wonky stars, sewing more stars and cutting more squares.
I really need to clean the threads off my design wall!
I also got up the first holiday decoration. We celebrate both Hannukah and Christmas, and today I put up the mitten advent calendar (is it still a calendar if it doesn’t have numbers?). About three years ago, I knit 24 little mittens out of handspun and strung them on a braided cord. Each year I fill them with little candies and my sons pick a different mitten each day to open until Christmas Eve.
Oh, and one other decoration today – we’ve started to put up icicles and snowflakes in the school library for the winter decorations, and included this book tree/mountain that my office mate created. We’re going to cut out little skiers and snowboarders to put on it.
Love those mittens!!
