Christmas is fast approaching, you’re short on time, money and ideas, this blanket is the answer to all your problems! Well, maybe not all of them, but I can give you a present you can knock out in 45 minutes and (if you’re in Australia) all of the fleece at Lincraft and Spotlight is on clearance for 40-50% off to clear out the old winter stock, so it works out fairly cheap.

Obviously, I’m in need of a cell phone with a better camera, because I’ve spotted some awesome Trail Blazers craftiness at the last three games and my pictures suck, suck, suck. First, on Monday versus the Sacramento Kings, Susan and I were behind this guy on our way to the Fan Shop: This dude cut

Got myself this treat from Walmart, courtesy of Glo. It was an unplanned purchase, but how could I refuse. It costs twice as much here and it’s one wish off my list.

contact icanquilt@aol.com to purchase Description: This towel set is made of a very soft cotton flannel yellow check on one side and a very soft cotton aqua terry cloth on the other. Can also be used as a receiving blanket, as the flannel is soft next to baby skin.

Yup, I should have known I couldn't puzzle you guys with that curious gizmo - my new best friend Benjamin Button-hole maker =)I haven't used the automatic button-holer before, and the dress was the perfect opportunity to give it a try. It does look pretty tricky, but it's actually super simple.

My sewing machine has been sadly neglected over the last few months. However, my pre-schooler who attends an Early Learning Centre is going to be part of a Nativity Play/Concert for the very first time this coming week. And, he’s assigned to be one of the shepherds.

Thanks for the comments on my dressy sewing project!The fabric is just SO cute - and it was also only about $3 a metre at the Spotties sale last week =)The 'ayes' were overwhelmingly with the ric-rac, so I took your advice and used it around the bottom to hide the hem stitches (I'm pretty sure the photo will embiggen a bit if you click.

I am especially proud of this sewing project... not because it is cute but I used organic scrap fabric that I have had for almost two years and to make this shirt it only cost me $2 (and that was 2 years ago)!!! I used another shirt I had that fit well to use as a pattern, and cut around those edges.
