The Creative World of the Crazy Haberdasher: Many gifts I have made this Christmas

My Dyslexia

Having the skill to write, spell, and punctuate has never been my strong suit. Growing up as a young child I was always nurtured to be creative and artistic which came naturally to me but I could never quite grasp written language. I now know that it's a learning disabilty with a name: DYSLEXIA.

I write from the heart and I make my best effort to get the words on the page properly but as you'll see I don't always succeed. I ask you to enjoy what I write and post but to be understanding and kind. Brian

Many gifts I have made this Christmas

This blouse was made for my dear friend, Jane, and the lighter one was made for her daughter, Alissa. I have wanted to make these for them for two years now and had the blouses for over a year. Is this sounding like something you might have done before? We all get behind but I though if I don't get them done soon the blouses may dry rot! LOL (And forgive the delayed post--we just had Christmas with Jane and Alissa this week!)

The pincushions you see have been made from velvet my new muse. I hope you like them. They are little labors of love but it has been lots of fun!

Check back soon. One (including me) never knows what I'm getting into next!

I hope this makes you want to get some of your UFO's ( UnFnished Objects) done after the holidays and create a memory for someone in your life.

Chat soon, Brian
