New hobby...

So, I know. I should be posting Christmas pictures and stuff. But I don't feel like it right now, so I'm not going to because if it feels like an obligation, I dislike it. And then we'll have another blog strike. Nobody likes that, right? Patience my friends. You'll have pictures of Isaac's first magical Christmas soon.
I'm in the mood to show you what my latest hobby is. It's called stitchery (kind of like embrodiery). I tea died the muslin, traced the patterns on, and then hand stitched the pictures. Anyway, it's kind of time consuming, but I find it quite relaxing. And I'm super proud of myself because I actually stitched more than a dozen projects for gifts, and I'm still not sick of doing it. I'm even designing some of my own patterns. Here are just a few of my projects...
My very first completed project

I designed the next three...

Yep. I'm going to get pretty artsy fartsy with this. They'll only get better from here!
