Supply Yearning on Vacation

Although I haven’t crafted much since the move, I’ve been increasingly itching to do more and more. Now that I’m back *home* for Christmas, I really wish I had things like my sewing machine and more supplies. This really stinks! What does a crafter do? I wish I could whip up (no such thing for me but oh well) presents, and I need to hem new pants (went down a size - woohoo). I went to A.C. Moore and purchased a butt-load of supplies and yarn, including a few things I already own that are waiting (perhaps somewhere still in boxes) for me in my new home. Sigh!

I thought of a way to make this great purse for my grandmother that she wanted last year, and my mom requested a scarf, and I wanted to at least get started. I also plan to whip up some coffee/cocoa cup sleeves for *everyone* in the fams, so I’ll be working a large portion of the day on those.

In addition to gifts, I have all these aspirations to make more new items to put up for sale, but the gifts will help show my “portfolio” as it were, so I can make things to order. It all helps.

I’ll post later the story of my craft store adventure, with yummy yarn-candy photos!
