I love that garland!!! Too cute!!! How are you maiking it?

I got some green jute at Walmart and I will just rip up strips of material and tie them on the jute. I didn't know there was green jute, but I thought it would work best because the tree is green..

Very cute! Greta idea!

Peg, I can't recall if you crochet ( I know you knit) but I saw this while moving patterns and thought it would be a cut addition for your Mistletoe Marketplace:

Thanks Dawn...That is really cute, but alas, I am not much of a crocheter....I used to make granny squares to make into afghans, but I can't even figure out how I did those! It's been a really long time.

peg

Well I will try and keep my eyes open for ideas for you.
Hugs,
Dawn

Thanks!!

Peg I bet you could do something with this pattern for your Mistletoe Marketplace!

The wreaths are cute Dawn!! I may have to try them if not too complicated for me...I can knit and purl and that's about it!!
hugs,
peg

giggles... I can do the garter stitch and that is it! Oh wait isn't that just knit, knit, knit? LOL

Whoooo Hooooo!!!
All of pstarkoski recipes have been moved from the old house to our new home...
I also transferred all of the gift in a jar recipes from the old house to the new house (under recipes and then gift recipes)...
Now to see what I can get into next!! I will be posting new recipes now so keep checking them out!
hugs,
peg

WOOOO HOOOO!!! I knew you could do it!!!! I wish my hand was up to letting me move some more patterns. Thank you so much for getting them all moved for us! I appreciate all the hard work you did and do for us!!!

HUGS,
Dawn

I love the garland, I saw this done once on a string of white lights for on a mantle, it was just beautiful.

Ok I have you down for 3 finishes!

I started on 16 Countdown Santas.....I need to get a few supplies before I can finish them...but finally starting for Mistletoe Marketplace '09!

Any new ideas for Mistletoe Marketplace '09?

Hi....
I got the Countdown Santas done (16 of them) and a few days ago I finished the Stocking placesettings (36 of them). I am going to start on the Pineapple turkey heads next.

Wow ... I have been keeping track of your totals and WOW!!! Can I be like you when I grow up??? You are simply amazing!!! You have finished OVER 200 projects so far this year and it is ONLY March!

Hi...I didn't mean to make a new post for this .... I just meant to reply....so I deleted the other post and putting this in the right spot!

Hi....
I finished up 12 heart santas....I used craft foam instead of wooden hearts (I couldn't find any wooden hearts in that size, so I used the foamies.)
Dawn....I updated this on my original UFO list.

In the picture...they are the bigger Santa (this picture is from last year...so this one is made out of wooden hearts).

hugs,
peg

giggles.. I thought you were tired of your UFO list and wanted to make a fresh start... LOL

I just went over your list and made sure I had all your finishes recorded. So if you want to delete any of them you can.

Awwwwww, if I do that Dawn then it won't look like I got anything done!! I will make a new list when I decide what things to do next!!
