Gifts for Grannie.

Just finishing up some gifts for my MIL.

I made her some Christmas dishcloths.

I really wasn't impressed with the wreath when I saw a picture in the pattern, but it turned out really well.  I had to try a couple of patterns before I found the The starpattern I liked, though I just sc around the outside edge, I wanted it kind of simple. The rest I just looked at the pictures and made it up as I went.

And a tawahsi scrubbie.

Mr. Man got us some Trappist jam from Monastery Gifts last year and we have had such a wonderful time tasting it over the year.  The quince is wonderful and the burgundy wine is amazingly bizarre. So this year we sent her some Trappist jam and preserves and a fruitcake made by monks that is fabulous.   I also made her some oatmeal raison cookies, chocolate chip cookies and rum drops. No picks yet, I'm washing tins.

And I'm making some CDs of K.  I think that covers it.

One down, 2,606,300 people to go!
