Would it surprise you to know, I don't write all day, every day. I'm a 9:30 to 4:30 writer. I have tons of stuff to do around my house and have to squeeze it in-today is fix the washer day; tomorrow is a new plumber coming to fix the dripping pipes under my master sink; somewhere in there is the a/c man to figure out why there is weird programming on my Nest thermostat.
I have other things to do too, like reading!! And I'm embroidering on a needlepoint pillow and a 12 days of Christmas lap blanket. I adore watching a good movie and stitching. I like stitching so much, I'd stitch in church if I could.
So I thought I'd share what I completed last year:
From this seventies set, I have a huge wreath to do.
I embroidered tea towels for four girlfriends:
And stitched my first needlepoint Christmas ornaments:
However, there is the writing thing. LOL. I'm always busy with it. Find out more holiday and romantic comedy fun at: Amazon Central
May your days be Merry and Bright!

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Love all the needle work stuff. I never could do any of that. I did crochet, but that's about it for handcrafts.
Wonderful crafts! You rocked them! I can't imagine not having time for other things in my life... teaching children and spending time with family is where I get my best writing ideas!
Merry Christmas!!
I did the pillows last year but didn't get to show them off. I tried crocheting, Kathy, but went back to needlepoint because I liked the projects I was doing.
I agree spending time with family and friends provides great fodder for stories. Merry Christmas, Melissa!
You are so creative, Vicki! I'm impressed with all your hobbies!!
Merry Christmas!
Hi, Karilyn! Grandmother started my embroidery love when I was nine. A few years ago, I saw a needlepoint stitch n zip on a clearance at Hoppy Lobby. I was with my mom and said, "I can do that." I did and took a few classes too. Merry Christmas!
