Let's Vote On It.....

Between now and Christmas I've got 5 birthdays, UMPTEEN Christmas presents and then 3 more birthdays before the New Year is even a week old. I also have 2 quilt orders hovering in the wings. As you can imagine, my "To Do List" (if I was a List Maker...which I'm not...but if I WAS....) is full to overflowing. Logically I should be knuckling down......however....
Just look at this little pretty.....

...I made it using the "Bento Box" pattern that I bought from www.tikkilondon.com last week. I couldn't help myself. It kept whispering to me from underneath the To Do List. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed making this little mat. It's mostly origami with fabric and some fussy cutting thrown in for good measure. I changed how I attached the squares and am glad that I did, as it made my stitches more even on the back.
However....this is NOT a birthday present. Nor is it a Christmas present. Nor can I think of anyone to give it to. Nor do I use mats. But it is pretty.
And that brings me to this post's title....I'm sure I'm not the only one aboard the I've Got So Much To Make And Not Enough Time To Do It In Boat (though I may be the only one daft enough to spend time working on something that doesn't earn a tick on The Imaginary List), so I propose we take a vote on postponing Christmas until around the middle of March. Sheer Brilliance. What do you think??
I'm going to finish this post now, in case you vote against me, and I do actually have to get a wriggle on. See you soon. xx
