Today I started a Christmas present - it's bigger and more detailed than what I've done in a while. There are 15 pattern pieces, plus some pieces cut by measurement - and I'm tracing each piece onto tissue paper (most are too big to photocopy) to preserve the original pattern :D The project is an Oliver & S project - I hope it turns out well ... especially now that I've posted about it! Tonight I drafted, cut out and assembled the first 4 pattern pieces. I still have quite a way to go, lol, but so far so good! :D
I also finished this little cutie (a Christmas gift, and being posted to the Happy Little Pouch Hop) and baked 4 1/2 dozen cookies for DS2 to take to work to share with his crew :)
