Oh, I had grand plans of showing you the two pairs of socks that I finally finished for Matt and Ryan. But, nope! I couldn't get them to put them on to get an artsy picture. They love them and sleep in them, but don't have time for me!
Ha! See if I make them another pair right away :)
Last week I was feeling very uninspired so I decided to brighten up our breakfast room. I saw some heart garland on etsy and thought how easy it would be to make my own. I had a ton of red cardstock left over from the year I made my own Christmas cards (that year...pure craziness!) and went to work. Cut a bunch of hearts and then fed them through my sewing machine. Viola! Instant gratification fulfilled!
I made this soup
earlier this week. It was very good. Ryan didn't eat it, but he was in a "mood" and wasn't going to eat anything and Matt loved it. Andy ate later...it's busy season for him.
So, before I start back up on the sweater that I'm making, I'm doing a bit of stash busting. I started a hat this afternoon and hope to have it done by the weekend.
Stay warm everyone and happy digging to those in the Northeast!
