Between sickness and so many projects, it’s been way too long since I updated here!
We are getting ready for Christmas at our house.
Opening a present every night, one of our Christmas books or movies all wrapped up to be new again.
Decorating a gingerbread house.
Making lots of yummy treats to deliver to neighbors.
Sewing up a new table runner.
And a Christmas bunting to help out with displaying our Christmas cards.
And sewing gifts. Most of which I can’t show yet or it will ruin Christmas surprises. But I did already give this iPad cover to my wonderful mother-in-law.
And delivered these aprons to a friend. She was in possession of all of the vintage sheets her family grew up with. We I made aprons from them, six for the girls and one for the boy (his is not pink). That’s what she is giving them all for Christmas. Love the idea and how they turned out.
What are you making for Christmas this year? I had to scratch some things off my list because I didn’t start soon enough. But I’m really happy with the things that stayed on the list.

Looks like you’ve been having lots of yummy fun! Love the idea of recycling those sheets for the aprons (though I can see that the boy may not have embraced the pink roses). My list is getting there slowly, I’m keeping everything crossed that nothing will have to drop off it…

So much fun.
About a Bean
So this one time, my sister called me Bean. It stuck. The end. My name is Colleen, and I’m just a girl who crafts. Mostly lately, I sew. I knit. I do whatever. And I share it all here. I make no guarantees on the regularity of my posts. I just do what I can.
You can always contact me at bean@thebusybean.com.
