I really love this idea. This year, I’m out of the country for Christmas, so I want to get everyone a souvenier type gift. So I’ll just have to keep an eye out for good stuff I can use next year instead. :D
As for knitting backward, are you talking about purling? Because I mostly purl when making blankets and stuff just because it’s easiest, but I can see where that could really mess you up in trying to follow patterns.

I loved this idea last year Emily Rose (although I didn’t participate much) and I am really looking forward to Christmas and all the Christmassy things, such as making presents, decorations, recipes and, for us, lots of storms and rain! :)

Feelin’ Christmassy,
Jessica

I followed this last year, and greatly enjoyed it. This year, some of my gifts are already planned. There’s a jumble of homemade, partially homemade, and not homemade at all in there. I hope to have the time to really participate, but so far December looks pretty busy! Even in the midst of that, though, I’m sure there will be time for cookie baking, decorating, blogging, and crafty-ness!
Looking forward to it!
Blessings

The quilt your aunt made is beautiful. That’s the same block (”churn dash”) I am using for the baby quilt I’m making… which will be finished whenever I can get a walking foot for my machine.

I hope we can have our day of crafty knitting soon! I have a few knit things I’m working on for Christmas gifts, and some homesewn project ideas… if Baby S. sleeps a lot, or comes late, perhaps I will even get them all done! :-P

Your site is wonderful! I discovered it a month or two ago when Monica posted about your paper dolls. It was then I seen the Homemade Christmas icon and was very intrigued. I devoured every post from last year and am so excited your doing it again this year!! I so can not wait!!

The quilt is beautiful!

Monica is an absolute doll & craft genius.

Dear Miss Emily Rose,

I was wondering if you would allow me to interview you for the next issue of “Pure Little Ladies Magazine”. If you’re interested, please contact me.

Looking forward to hearing from you! May your day be blessed!
