Wrapping it up

Tonight I'm working on my last present, the second of a pair of simple scarves for my mother in her favorite colors. I think she'll like them. I spent the early evening wrapping gifts for K, and was pleased with the work I had done. I think she'll like her gifts, too.

For my dad, I ended up making an entirely new blanket in a festive and velvety red plaid flannel, which D liked enough to want to keep for himself! I told him I'd make us one after the holidays.


This morning I bought a book on home decor and some heavy-duty ticking-striped fabric on heavy-duty clearance sale. I'm looking forward to trying something fresh and new with my new-found free time.
