Sewing or Shopping?

     How many of you have a room devoted solely to sewing and/or crafts?  Mine is downstairs and is laden with supplies and projects that need to be finished or fixed.  You know it's bad when you have to walk sideways to get to your worktable.  No way am I showing a picture of the room in its present state.  Anyway, I've spent the last evenings trying to clean, sort, organize and yes, even throw away some things.  My eldest stepson has three little girls in his family and I'd like to make them semi-matching dresses for Christmas.  You know, make the same style dress and intermingle pockets, collars, tops, etc. for a cute but semi-matching look.
     Meanwhile, aside from my normal life trying to keep our booths well stocked in the antique shops, I've listed a few things on Etsy and Ebay.   This beautiful handcarved soapstone from the Orient just sold: 
The artist carved two areas for vases; the craftsmanship is phenomenal.

     This butcher sign showing beef cuts is still on Etsy:  
     Just click on the link below the picture if you want to take a closer look.
     And, on Ebay, we have this cool souvenir from a midwest brewery:

Funny little crow, huh?  Again, just click on the link if you want to take a look.  Christmas is less than three months away - I like to post unusual items online for those hard-to-please loved ones.
