I have been absent from my favorite thread! I got paranoid that I was leaving people out of the challenges so I went back and checked again--all 162 pages of January!!! I now have a good list and will pop it into the random generator this weekend...I went out and got a few more prizes and some prizes are ordered and will get here in 3-5 days! YAY!
I love it when dreadfullydivine posts because it is like a mini catch-up for me! So, double what she said...I have been loving the February projects and hope to catch up Sunday!
In the meantime, I am so impressed with the Eagle Scout quilt! I love quilts that have such a good memory attached..and, I concur: rottenlittleboys, your boy turned out not so rotten!

Love the shrug!!!! It has nice sleeves and is better fitted than a lot I have seen...beautiful work!
I know what a sprocket pillow is now...I definitely want some of those!
k-star--love the tunic--the sleeves are funky!
and, the fairy tale drawings are fantastic!! I think the freckles and the mismatched ears give such personailty to your drawings! Whoever is closest slap her head for saying her drawings are getting worst!!!! You are developing a style that is adorable!!
kim-cheeeeeeee!! I love the stuff...I learned to make it when I was in college from my Mom...I loved stinking up my dorm room, but everyone came to see me to pig out on it! I have a pickle press as well, but I use an upside down plate and a large stone since I make huge batches...it keeps so well...what kind of bacteria could live in that heat and stink?

mmmm kim-chee soup sounds like a great thing to make this weekend!
I have made tons of stuff but my camera software is not cooperating...first my camera went bad, now the software...
Carry on...and be sure to check out the search for another Master Crafter! The loot is to die for!! I did it the first year and got a Brother Embroidery Sewing Machine, every thread color in the world, stabilizers, software, patterns...it changed my crafting forever!
I will post a link in a second...here ya go!! DO IT!!!
