Well, I seem to be a flunk out when it comes to blogging. I am not sure why as I have been an avid journal keeper for many years. So I am dusting off my blog here and making a new post.

Winter is arriving early it seems here in Indiana. We have a thin blanket of slow and the winds are bitter cold. For some reason the hush and still of winter inspire the crafter in me. I love curling up with a cup of coffee or hot tea and picking up a set of knitting needles, a crochet hook or my cross-stitch supplies and sitting in front of a window where I can craft while watching the beauty of a winter wonderland.

This week I finished up some ornaments for the shut-ins at my local church and for the team that I serve with visiting those shut-ins. This can be a lonely time of year for many people. Make a point to go out of your way to let others know that you love and care about them. I hope in some small way these ornaments will put a little warmth in the hearts of those that receive them this cold winter.
