I’ve never met a crafter without a stash of some kind. This year my goal is to use up all the craft supplies I have spent money on that are taking up mental and physical space in my life.

Stash Bash
I can’t really show you Livie’s slippers since she will receive them tonight at her birthday supper but I can show you a little glimpse of them. I am finishing the monograms and then they will be wrapped.
On a side note, I had hoped that many more people would join me every week and the fault lies on me for being so inconsistent but I am wondering how much longer I should host this stash bash and would love to hear from any of you on this. It would help me greatly to make a decision either way.
So what have you been up to? I love to see what you come up with. I have added the Mr Linky to the bottom of this post for you to link up your Stash Bash projects.
Here’s what to do. There are no rules.
Just use what you have and try to not buy new supplies, unless you need it to

In the nick of time
Are the holidays coming too fast for anyone else other than just me? The calendar is tick tocking and I am working to get it all done in time. Presents, decorations and meals to be made as well as memories.
I won’t get to see my parents this year which is so sad but at the same time my Momma is going home to NYC so I couldn’t be happier for her. Today I sent her present knowing that today is the cutoff for Christmas delivery. I had mentioned her gift here and it was almost done. I finished it the next day and then put it away and forgot about the buttons until this morning when it had to be out the door.
It’s my own pattern. I understand it, but I am not sure others would. I have written hundreds of crochet patterns which I sold on Etsy for four years but knitting patterns seem so different to me. The wooden buttons are super duper easy. The next time I will buff and polish them and perhaps distress them a bit but like I said, it was done just in the nick of time.
I can safely post these pictures here because even though I warned my Momma in the last post about this hat, to stop reading, she didn’t. Not only did she read it but she even left me a comment to let me know she had. She is naughty that woman!! I love her! So, Mami, if you are reading this, enjoy it and enjoy your time in New York. No one deserves it more than you.
I’ll be back tomorrow to show you how to make the wooden buttons at my Stash Bash and if you have a project you have made from your stash of materials, come back here tomorrow and share it with everyone.
Yarning along again this week. Hope you are meeting your Christmas craft goals.
