My creative space is pretty messy today.  I really need to do some sorting out and putting away.  I also need to finish off projects that have been cut out for some time.  This year I aim to complete things rather than start lots of big new projects!

I received some terrific birthday presents.  My parents gave me an Ott-Lite and a light box, so suddenly tracing applique (and a million other things) has become much simpler.  I can also craft much later into the night because the Ott-Lite is a little like having my own tiny sun right next to me!  My husband gave me some patterns that I’ve been eyeing off for a while.

Alright, I admit it, I bought myself the patterns then “hid” them in his office and told him to give them to me for my birthday. Just like the accompanying craft books and Interweave Crochet CD….

These are all from Jalie and my husband I bought them from Pattern Review.  I am really looking forward to making a start, but am finding it hard to decide on which one first.  Once I finish the bag I am sewing (and the aforementioned already-cut-out items) I’ll begin tracing!
