We have been rather far behind this year. We just put up the tree a few days ago.
Hopefully this is the last fake tree year. I really prefer real trees, but it wasn’t in the cards this year.

Miss Clause Hat ~ Free tutorial!
With cute braids woven in on the sides and a playful pom pom on top, the Miss Clause Hat is a fun look for the gift giving gal!
What a week!
Last week was quite long and short, all at once. Do you know what I mean?
Before I get into it, I should share that I finally released my Fanny skirt pattern. I am having a give away for any one of my patterns (winners get to choose which one they want) over on my facebook page.
Softie and Toy Links for Project 19
Here is the list I promised for Project 19 to all my Craft Hope peeps! Links to various free patterns for softies. If you have more links you think should be added, just let me know. I hope this helps inspire you all to create some love for child victims of Sandy. I have done my best to only include free patterns, in the spirit of Craft Hope, however, if you know of a paid pattern or a coupon code that others may be interested in, go ahead and share that info with each other on the Craft Hope Facebook page.
Owlet Lovey – a sweet crochet pattern for the little one you love
Owlet Lovey is here! As I told you when I announced my teaming up with Craft Hope, I have a tutorial for you! I’ve always found lovies rather adorable. The mix of blankie and stuffie is just too cute for words. So, without further ado, here is my little tutorial for a crocheted owlet lovey.
I did it again
Once again I have teamed up with the amazing Craft Hope! The new web page is still under construction, but the Facebook page is running smoothly. So hop on over to the Craft Hope Facebook page and give them a “like.” Then check out Project 19 :: Dolls, Animals, and Monsters. Oh My! Share it with anyone you know who may be able to make handmade softies for kids who lost so much from Sandy. There are two people collecting for this project, the lovely Katrina up in NH, and yours truly.
I am working on a tutorial for you all for
Ooops, forgot to title this one!
Celebrate cyber week, and extend small business Saturday by shopping at my on line stores! *plus, I could use some help with the bills ;^)* Use coupon code “Holiday” to receive 15% off your entire order in my Etsy store. ALSO: all patterns in my Craftsy and Ravelry stores will be marked down 20%, there is no way to make coupons for those two sites, so I have changed the prices for the patterns for the course of the sale. This sale will run through New Year’s Day. That way you can take advantage of the sale for Holiday gifts, or you can buy yourself goodies with your Holiday money.
There are lots of new goodies at JessieAtHome.com. There will be more coming in the next few days as well.
Sneak Peak
I will be listing some new items in my Etsy store this evening.
They will make nice holiday gifts for yourself or others.
New things to come…
Tuesday and Thursday of last week were parent/teacher conferences at the girls’ school. This meant half days of school and lots more time at home.
Being creative little ones, they decided craft time was in order.
