Making Stuff ('Cause Who Needs Sleep)

For a small stretch of time while John was away, I churned out some gifts that I wanted to make, most of them (you guessed it) long overdue. I like to make things, though I don't regularly make much other than meals and messes, so here's to making stuff.


A lace-edged scarf:

Wood-burned boards of all sizes.

A small mug (or drinking jar) board:

A medium cutting board:

A large cutting board:

A looong & skinny cutting board:

Some funny-looking spoons:






An appliqued table runner-- sunshine for a winter kitchen:

(Credit where credit is due:  I modeled the dancing, Dutch girls on this vintage embroidery pattern.)
