I finally got good light in the sewing room, and have started playing with the embroidery machine. Since I have such a love of butterflies, I have done quite a few. Now I plan to start on some crazy quilt squares, using the machine. What fun, if only I didn't have to work.

I am still painting. I just finished this one yesterday:
 
I have put the four I have on EBay today, this one, the hen, the elephant and another landscape. (I painted the elephant a second time. )

WOW! You are so speedy Sheryl! that has a wonderful feel to it do you name them?
I picked up my knitting for a little while, hehe, it's been so long that I look like a monkey trying to knit now too! This is the first I've touched it since my dad's last hospital stay so my fingers need to learn all over again.

Today I am putting shelves in the basement and making a wine and beer making work area.
That's crafting, isn't it, sort of…

I crocheted a pair of slippers today!!! Start to finish…….done!!! I am so proud of myself! This is the first thing in a long time (besides dish cloths) that I have finished crocheting!!! I made them up as I went, measuring my foot as I went…with a simple single crochet.
Now little miss Caitlin NEEDS a pair!

You worn out your Christmas slippers already? 
I finally finished the top of a quilt today, hand applique it was a bom from Bunny Hill design.
I didn't care for her December block so I changed that a bit.
Now I have to finish it, but I will tie it, I don't think quilting will do this quilt justice..(ok ok and it is easy too )
Pictures are on my blog.

I love the gingerbread basket with the little Chritstmas tree quilt. Is there a place on your blog to click for English translation?

Leah, her translate button is over on the right toward the top and it is a rectangle with the word "Translate" in it. She hasn't always had it, but it is working now.
