More Nerdy Christmas

So, I’ve continued to be busy crafting over the last few days. I’ve been so busy that I strained my hand/arm and had to give it a rest yesterday! Some of my projects are for Christmas so they will just have to keep, but here are the next batch of ornaments-nerdy and otherwise.

Star Wars Rebels,

Star Wars Empire.

Sits pretty cunning, don’t ya think?

Crazy quilt trio,

Claudia, my three-legged pet mouse

and Hazel the wog-dog.

I've found it very compelling to create portraits of my pets in cross stitch. I have a book that has some good starting places, but part of the fun has been adapting them so they more fully reflect the animals. I plan to do the cat soon, and I have a few ideas for some other pets to stitch. I’m still knitting; pictures of that later. I’m trying to get the last big of some sock yarn used up, and I need to get a Christmas present finished up. Well, I'm going to take a nap since I was so busy installing my new stove to get one yesterday!
