This morning I glared at the blanket which is in a time out and went back to the socks for my cousin that I finished knitting but hadn’t woven in ends. Am beginning to think the socks bribed the blanket to misbehave so I would actually finish-finish them and send them out.

Probably right…I have WIPS that are behaving badly and need a time out…you crack me up! 
oh…managed to finish this so I am counting it in case I don’t get to craft today…used my DGY monthly sub yarn, the same one a lot of us got…and made a heart, just like @AntBee, only crocheted it from memory…so it is a bit wonky, but, I have enough to do another…

Taking a scarf break and cutting up swapped masterboards and cardstock to make tags/mini cards and atc blanks.

I baked Oma’s Dutch ginger butter cake to mail to a friend:
Then made DIY chili sin/con carne seasoning mix
Then patched this oven mitt (made by me, a decade or so ago)
Then finally stitched this pincushion closed:
And did some cross stitch

I started messing with my masterboard collection for a swap idea, which then encouraged me to cut my masterboards into smaller sizes to use on cards for swaps or tags. This then had me get into my overstuffed cardstock scrap drawer. Now, I have a stack of masterboards to glue to cards, a nice stack of atc blanks/backs, and an organized drawer with usable scrap sizes!

I did not get much done yesterday - just a row on my smaller seaside afghan, and the tiiiiniest start on an elephant amigurumi (for some reason this pattern starts with its THUMBS… but I finished both of those!). 
Hoping to make more stuff today: I already helped Mom get dinner started in the crockpot, and plan to make sweet potato biscuits later to go with it, and I definitely need to make some ATCs today for various swap partners!

Those are sooo cool! I believe there have been virtual masterboard-making sessions with LC-ers before, right? Any plans for another soon?

I’m not sure. We haven’t had enough internet data for me to attend any of the papercrafting Zooms, so I haven’t really been following along lately.

Awww, that’s a shame. I do hope to make some masterboards sometime soonish myself.

Argh I’ve gotten nothing done for three days. I did make arancini yesterday, so that might count-probably can’t count the toasted sandwich that was dinner tonight

I haven’t tried them before so I can’t vouch for them, but this is the recipe I’m planning to make tonight!

I did a massive project today, I’m wiped out. I’ve been moving my studio out of an upstairs bedroom to move a kid into that space and today we finally got through the final push. Curtains up, art on the walls, books in the bookshelf, the bed set up and bedding in the laundry now. He’ll sleep in there tonight for the first time. Whew, huge job. So glad that part is done.

It has been a lovely chilled crafty day, so managed to get quite a bit more done on the cross stitch…
Decided I did quite like the pocket letter background, so finished off the ‘stitching’, cut it up and added some decorations…
I also started on an altered thread spool…
Need to actually try and get some bits finished tomorrow

Love this!!
We made a snowman today:
Also baked some sugar cookies with an old mold pan we have had forever. I was getting it out to donate and my kids wanted to use it instead.
