I love my reindeer. So does Elio, so its bendy bits keep getting funky with his twisting. And the file of things to try/do next Christmas keeps getting fatter. It's been a few years since Holiday Knits was published and Teva Durham's Lopi tree skirt is still in the queue, so, year after year, a big piece of whatever is handy in the fabric stash gets swathed around the tree stand like Linus's blanket instead. This year it was a marimekko red-on-red print that I've been meaning to make into a holiday tablecloth.
This is a very addictive craft project from an old Martha Stewart Kids.
This post will now have me running, not walking to my button collection! I'm thinking of using them to "hold" tags on Christmas parcels! I'm off!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have the beginnings of an unusual chess set there...
ReplyDeleteAww! I'm raiding the button stash--and I think I have that issue in the basement somewheres.
ReplyDeleteBlessed, merry Christmas, Mrs. Lear!
xo,
