Christmas in July?

Okay, I know what you’re thinking… it’s July – do we really have to think about Christmas?

After all, it’s hot and sunny outside, there are vacations to enjoy, barbeques to host, tall, icy drinks – why on earth would you want to think about heading to your studio to work on Christmas stuff?

Well… hear me out for a minute!

Do you remember last December?

Was it busy for you?

I know I was running around wishing I had an extra pair of hands :-)

So, I’m extending a new challenge for the month of July – start working on some of those Christmas presents!  Is there someone that you’d like to make a cross-stitch sampler for?  How about a yo-yo quilt?   Or does your significant other want something special from your studio?

Start brainstorming and we’ll see if this December is easier!
