When life gets in the way of craft...


The sewing machine sits idly by, waiting for your attention.


Little quilt tops eagerly await the adhesion of their backs.


Elephants anticipate the arrival of their torso and limbs.



Christmas gifts gather in the throes of construction.


Softie corpses sit forlornly in the corner.


And the pile of planned projects just continues to grow.



Do you think if I ask nice enough Santa could postpone Christmas by just 2 more weeks? I've been a very good girl this year, I'm sure I'm not on the naughty list.....well...pretty sure.

Hi Selina...
Maybe if you modify your question just a tad...then Santa will send his elves your way and help you to be ready in a mere two weeks! shhhhh, don't tell...that's what I'm going to do! Happy Holidays! Be of good cheer, you can do it!

I'm writing to Santa to ask for a few elves this year. I'm sure they will arrive sometime soon as my projects look a bit like yours - unfinished!

Miss Muggins said...

Oh, I have the same wish!

Sally said...

Empathising with you entirely!!! I'm on a mission to finish projects so that I can START the birthday stuff so that I can then START the Christmas stuff... I think I need more than a postponement... perhaps Santa could get us all magic wands :)

I don't think 2 weeks is going to be enough...sorry...can you try and get me a few weeks extra too please xx

Janice said...

It sounds like we all have the same wish. Christmas is coming around just too quickly.

Unknown said...

Oh yes two extra weeks would be great ! Ask , go on !

Awesome, if you get your wish I will be riding on the coat tails! Looks like lots of fun things are waiting for you there! Love the quit tops too. :)

Glad it's not just me! Flat chat with crafting (not to mention the day job!)

OK. So given that Christmas hasn't been postponed, can I assume that you are in fact on that naughty list? Hhhmmmmm... I wonder why?
