I am a left handed crocheter; have not tackled any projects in the past couple of years, but have made over the years: afghans, kid's purses, scarves for mr. uvular, several filet crochet pieces, such as a curtain panel, antimacassers(you put 'em on the back of a chair), and a scenic Home Sweet Home wall hanging. Over the years, I've probably pulled out as much thread and yarn as I have finished!

Also sew, mostly curtains, and if I buy curtains, I'll put my own trims on them.

Well, I found a leather supply shop online called, "Brettuns Village." The folks there said they'd send me free samples with details and descriptions of all their products after I asked a couple of questions about leather to use for plaiting bullwhips.

THAT'S how you run a business!

These folks sell huge amounts cheap and they seem to go above and beyond for my business. I picked up my last purchase from Tandy Leather two days ago for my next whip project. Never going back again.

I'm currently working on a 12-plait, 10-foot Australian bullwhip and hope to be done in three to five days.

Am still happily churning out scarves for all the hapless victims who will get them for Christmas (LOL!). I may get brave and try one of those cute knitted purses to see if they are "cool" enough for our nieces.

Finished them? I'm still picking out cool yarn while visions of Christmas projects dance through my head. ;)

Me! I finished the Shepherd's Bush set of four Nativitiy ornament designs. I am having it matted and framed, it will be displayed in my home for the Christmas season. My goal was to start and finish the other two ornaments, I might make that goal. However getting them framed will take place after Christmas...

I have just finished my Christmas.... 8 quilts; 2 afghans; 12 kiddy stockings (felt stockings with Fosty on the girls; and the gingerbread man for the boys) the stockings are filled with goody things like games, coloring books, crayons, etc. NO CANDY....

The quilts and afghans are for the grownups....now to work on hubby's present...what to give him???? (thinking, thinking)

I've abandoned knitting. Like it, but it takes too long. I did finish 3 scarves and am almost done with a blanket... All crocheted.

Perhaps other needleworkers have handled this: my mom died and left many unfinished projects. Do y'all go ahead and finish those projects, putting aside your own, or do you put hers on the back burner waiting for a break in your or someone else's schedule, or do you just say, sorry, I'm not interested in those projects? I have a lot of emotions tied up in whatever answer I pick.
