Off-Season Projects

If you came across an idea this Christmas for a big project that you would like to do for next Christmas, consider working on it during the off-season.  For example, if we decide to try to make a family tree skirt, I will work on this during the summer so that we don't get bogged down with this project during the Christmas season.  Although it is unlikely that I will take on a project like this because I am not a crafty person, I might try working on my sugar cookie baking skills throughout the year so that we have a chance to make prettier cookies next year.
