I know...It's been a while

I know it's been a while since my last post. I guess I've been a bit lazy when it comes to posting. Anyway, I don't have pictures of everything I have been working on but here is what I do have.

Here is the spread for the second annual christmas cookie bake off that Deborah and I do to give as christmas gifts to co-workers and friends. This year we didn't make snickerdoodles. We only made chocolate chip, chocolate chunk and oatmeal raisin. I told Deborah I wanted to make extra oatmeal raisin because I had more to give out this year. She hesitantly agreed. The cookies were a hit as usual and after we gave all the cookies out, Deborah said next year we need to make more because she had more people to give to then she originally thought. See...I told you! :o)






Here is the cover page of my 2007 scrapbook album, I completed on Staturday. It's simple, but appropriate. I was love struck in 2007 so this page sums up my year.


This is the second watch cap I've done. On this one though I made it shorter so it wouldn't have the fold up flap. I used a cotton yarn on this one.







I cast on for my fifth hat last night. Im knitting the Headline News Cabled Newsboy Cap that Deborah is also knitting. She will be done way before me though. This will be my first time learning how to do cables. We will see how it goes. Looking forward to learning something new!

I really like the added stamping you did on the cookie spread. Very cute!

I like the watchcap rendition. It looks cute on you. I have one w/ the flap but don't wear it 'cause it make me look like a little kid. I think the w/out flap might just be the ticket! Love the cookie title block & stamping. Your title page is adorable (is the Love Struck a rub on?) I see you are hat addicted & are knitting like mad. You'll be knitting with the best of 'em on everything & anything soon.

Mary beth, the "Love Struck" is part of the paper. It's Creative Imaginations by Marah Johnson tattoo collection. I bought a couple of pieces from this collection and even gave some to Deborah cause I knew she would love it too. Yes I have to admit Iam hat addicted. I currently am working on two hats. The Newsboy cap and the basic hat and there are more I want to do.
