busy elf

I know, it's a busy time of year! Well, this year, I decided to make most of my gifts... I started 2 new craft projects this year and they have both kept me busy, but I can only share one with you right now since someone I made the others for reads my blog... But the one I can share with you is a quilt I made. I've been wanting to try and make a quilt for a while now. What better time that Christmas! I made my MIL a lap quilt for the couch. But, I purchased the throw at TJ Maxx because it was less expensive than buying that "minky" fabric and filling, etc. I thought I would do the top quilt part and just stitch it to the throw. Well, it was more difficult to get everything straight than I thought it would be. My hubby tried to make me feel better by saying that it looks great and she'll love it. It looks crooked. But, as long as she doesn't hang it on the wall, maybe she won't notice?Alright, next up, something I know how to do... Scrapbook! Here are two more DT layouts for Shabby Chic Memories...
Me and my mom...
My little brother
Hope you are enjoying your Christmas season! Even though I'm busy, I still am really enjoying this time of year. It really IS the most wonderful time of the year!
