Jingle All the Way

freebie pattern, JABC buttons and GASampler threads

I took the snow/sleet/ice storm that kept me home from work today as a sign from higher up that I should finish up that Christmas SAL I started Sunday. So, I did. Not sure what this little cutie wants to be when it grows up, but maybe a flat fold (easel)? Saw a great tutorial over on Vonna's blog that might just play up perfectly. If the photo had turned out better, you'd be able to see the liberal sparkles in the fabric. It suits the pattern to a T.

I would say "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow", but seriously, I don't think it would be prudent at this juncture.

It is looking most likely that I will be spending another snow day home tomorrow, so until tomorrow, dear friends, stay warm, safe and busy!

SIG SAL and a little white lie

Ok, so I'm not making any progress on my Finishing with Flair BUT I didn't really have a choice today. TODAY WAS THE 25TH of the month, so it was Christmas SAL DAY! I have had a little freebie from Just Another Button Company in the pig pile since I visited the National Cross Stitch Show (NCSS) in Arcola, IL 2 1/2 years ago. (What a great show! Highly recommend it!)

Seriously? Who sits on freebies for two and a half years? Apparently, you're talking to her. Anyway, today was just the excuse I was looking for to pull it out. As an added bonus, today's wintery mix of weather set the perfect stage for Christmas stitching. (this is me faking excitement about some really nasty weather).

No photos of Jingle yet because I didn't finish it, but I'm already looking forward to February 25th!
