Craft On: O Christmas Tree
Well, I should be finishing up one of two designs I put on the backburner, but I started this little, scrappy tree garland instead. It will be a great decoration come winter. My plan is to make another set in different tones and alternate the two, and make them gifts. Notice that the tree trunks are made with the leftovers from the adult sample of Jamal.
However, I did get Jamal published, and I have a great discount if you want to try it. Jamal is now available on Ravelry and on PayHip (it will be on LoveCrafts shortly).
Through September 1, 2024, there is a tiered coupon code: Use JamalIntro on PayHip or Ravelry for the first 10 purchases and receive 75% off, the next 10 purchases will be 50% off, and all purchases after that are 25% off. There are still some of those discounts available! (And if you are paying attention, there are really double available, because of being on both those sales platforms).
The kids and I began reading Emma this past week, and I am reading a little in Milk: The Surprising Story of Milk Through the Ages. On a recommendation from a young woman at church, I also began the delightful autobiographical novel Everthing Sad Is Untrue (A True Story). It has so much I relate to in it, and much to make one both laugh and cry. It is light reading, as it is aimed at young adults and kids, but it is good reading.
