Getting something personal like that is something the recipient can cherish for life.<br /><br />My time is limited, and I can’t commit to doing this… but if I do, I would want to read your book—that would be a great gift.Jeff Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00667419764890599092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347002624328577997.post-41556462415393216922011-01-13T02:56:44.278-08:002011-01-13T02:56:44.278-08:00I couldn't agree with you more and I was discu...I couldn't agree with you more and I was discussing this exact topic with a good friend before Christmas. I was unexpectedly given a small piece of crochet work by someone I hardly knew and I was inspired to take out my old hooks and start again, especially as I was stumped for ideas for a baby-who-has-everything. Hand crafted gifts give enormous pleasure to both giver and receiver.<br /><br />This isn't a comment to qualify for your generous offer. I live far too far away for that. :)A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04709794851766685322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347002624328577997.post-85137728908441514702011-01-12T08:18:48.910-08:002011-01-12T08:18:48.910-08:00Stephanie and Walking Man: Of COURSE I won't c...Stephanie and Walking Man: Of COURSE I won't count out my own sister! In fact, since you are the only two responders, I'm going to send you both something... with or without your sending anybody else something handmade. <br /><br />Right now, though, I'm going to work on my novel. Have you seen the bar on the right moving?

The boss won't let me bake or cook, fraid I'd mess up the order of her kitchen. All my tools I've given away and sadly what's left is simply what I have to say.<br /><br />Nice concept and a good venture if you are crafty enough to pull it off.<br /><br />Don't knock your sister out of the prized package.the walking manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058913927297370740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347002624328577997.post-18411520648577057822011-01-10T06:29:33.739-08:002011-01-10T06:29:33.739-08:00As I'm your sister, I'm not sure I'm n...As I'm your sister, I'm not sure I'm not disqualified in general. And I'm not sure how I feel about adding another commitment to my plate. <br /><br />I do love hand-crafted gifts and have given out more than my share: crocheted afghans, crewel work, jewelry. (I'm not as artistically talented as you are so my choices are more limited). I'll probably do so again as well. <br /><br />I'm an advocate for the concept and will undoubtedly do more hand-crafted work as time goes by, but I don't know exactly when.Stephanie Barrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17772217449161603561noreply@blogger.com
