Quiet week

I haven't been able to do near as much handcrafting as I would have liked this week because I strained my right hand/arm, so I've been taking it much slower, and had to *gasp* merely read instead of reading and knitting! I've been trying out some new recipes, doing lots of dishes (how can one person make so many?), going for daily walks with a big of a job on the airstrip, and hanging out with Jill in the evenings. Here then, is the fruit of this week's labor.

This is actually a cheat--I meant to post pictures of this last week. The latest finished nerdy Christmas ornament--May the odds be ever in your favor!

I finally got Java's cross stitch portrait done--love it!

I used up the very last of my beautiful Mountain Colors yarn to make a luggage tag,

And, I found a picture of a kit to make several Japanese character ornaments, figured out the pattern, and have one finished up.

Currently I'm working on finishing up a gift that I just decided who it was for, and a Warehouse 13 ornament that I designed. Hopefully I can get ride of this hand/arm strain and be back in business! This holiday is flying way to fast...
