100th post ... look for a giveaway after the holidays.


I'm trying to finish things up here and they are surprises so no pictures of them. I'm looking forward to school break and having the kids home. DD#1 will be coming home from college for the month! I'm especially happy to have a chance to sleep in a bit. You see I get up at 4:30 (am) to take dd#2 to swim practice.
Now for a commercial announcement: for one of my projects I ran out of some fabric - I looked online and ordered this fabric from Shabby Fabrics http://www.shabbyfabrics.com/. They were sooo nice and it arrived in 3 days! Also on the same day I ordered fabric from Jo-ann fabric - it's this cute little gingerbread man print that I saw and they told me it would be 10 to 15 business days and they sure were right. Now I remember why I never shop there :(
The gingerbread man stuff may need to be for next Christmas if it doesn't get here soon. My sscs package got to Portugal faster than that!
So are there other people out there who haven't finished their Christmas projects and already planning for next year?
This is my 100th post!! I've decided to wait until after Christmas to celebrate it with a giveaway. Something to brighten January up a bit.

I am still working on Christmas projects too--where does the time go?
Looking forward to having all of the kids at home and some sleeping in time makes it all worth it, huh?

Hia Lynn, congratulations on reaching 100. Well you know what I mean. LOL

Sorry to hear about your fabric frustration. Can you google the fabric elsewhere? great when you do get good service. :-)

You post to me summed up the crafter's Christmas experience so there is a little something for you on my blog.
