Happy Holidays! Christmas 2006 was filled with wonderful visits with oodles of family members this year. We were so lucky to be able to see all members of both mine and Kate’s immediate family — plus several aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends besides.

I didn’t give many handmade gifts this year (for obvious reasons). That felt kind of strange, but I hope to find more time for crafting again as time goes on. I did sew a few pairs of flannel baby pants for Josie and her cousin Will and sewed a toddler-sized apron for our friend Miriam. I knit a quick pink sweater for Jocelyn and I have another sweater in progress for Kate, and that’s about it.

Oh yeah, and I made Josie’s Christmas dress that she’s wearing in the photos above, too.

I’m working on a list of craft projects to tackle in 2007. Not anything to stress myself over, just things that I don’t want to forget about — especially stuff that can be made with supplies on hand, for those times when I need a little inspiration. On the top of the list is an Aran Sampler blanket for my parents.
