Holiday Stashdown Challenge - I'm Ready!

Come join the fun!

I am lazy.  Well, perhaps lazy isn’t exactly right, because I’m always doing something!  I think it’s more like I’m prone to procrastination.  I definitely put off doing boring tasks like grocery shopping and laundry (I have lots of socks!), and the unpleasant things like those annual trips to the doctor.  But I even wait until the last minute to do things that I enjoy, like making gifts for my friends and family!  I’m not sure why I do this.  It always leads to late nights, too much money spent on ho-hum gifts, and a general feeling of failure. 

Not this year!  This year things are going to be different!  I’m going to be organized.  I’ll make lists, start early and I will not be distracted by pretty patterns!  Okay, so I can’t guarantee that will happen, but I really am going to try.  And here’s the best part: I have help!  In fact I wouldn’t even be considering my holiday projects today if it weren’t for The Underground Crafter.  Marie has had the foresight and ambition to create the 2012 Holiday Stash Down Challenge.  And I for one am thankful!  My stash may not be very big, but my desire to create beautiful, hand made gifts for those I love is huge!

Please join us on this adventure as we attempt to complete the perfect gifts for those we have deemed “crochet/knit worthy”*.  May they be done on time, for a reasonable amount of money and with as little stress as possible! As I set out on my journey I’m fresh and ready for the challenges ahead!  I’m not sure exactly where I’ll end up, but I promise that I’ll do my best to have fun along the way!  Hope you’ll join us on the road!

Until next time,
Be blessed and stitch & read with love!

*How do you decide who's worthy?  That's our prompt for next Tuesday's post.
