She did! We have so many thing that she made for us over the years and her House was full of really cool stuff that she made, too! And I see what you mean about the shirts too.

Yeah! Sometimes you forget but this thread kinda jogged it for me. But that is a really nice Oscar puppet Anthe site!

So, I've got two questions. One will only be significant to few, and another is open to all.

1. To those of you out there who know what it is (and I'm reaching for all those lurkers here) who all has been let into Ravelry yet? (If you're not a knitter or crocheter and active in online communities with it I don't expect you to know about it.)

2. The question for all:
Who is making one or more gifts for the holidays this year?

I personally at this time have three that I'm knitting, one that I'm cross-stitching, four+ that I'm "scrapbooking" and that's just the first go round. Plus, I have to be done by Thanksgiving/the second weekend in December so I'm in crunch time trying to get these finished (and we won't discuss the fact that I procrastinated and just started).

Anyone else out there like me?

Well I've been making a few small cross stitch motifs for Christmas cards.

what is Ravelry? I'm intrigued?

 

[Java]

Ravelry is a social networking site for fiber artists (knitters, crocheters, spinners, etc) that is still in it's beta phase so it takes and invitation to get in but is very interesting. It also offers features to help you manage your projects and supplies.

Okay, I am trying to multi task way to much right now, but I'm over on Ravelry catching up (I was planning to come here next but became way to excited and had to hop on now.) and discovered some one created a Muppet Group before I could (there was not one yesterday) and it already has 100 members! Before I got there.

Yippee, crafting Henson fans unite!

Wow! That's great Java!
