PROGRESS!!!  So after my first and second attempts at my Christmas Trade gift broke, I decided to try thinking of a plan B. I lost track somewhere and though and I think that I settled somewhere near plan Q,R, or S. I will be obtaining the rest of the raw materials I plan on including in my gift tomorrow, and last night I got one of the two handmade portions finished.

If I don't mess around too much, I may actually have it done before the early deadline!!! Go me.

Hint: I home my recipient likes cooking and/or eating.

My gift is completed and ready to go along with a few extras.
 After I posted my gift the first time I found out my recipient was wrong handed   ::)  so I redid a few things... but all is good now.  ;)
 I'll get a shipping box and have my gift ready for USPS on the 15th or soon after.
  I have managed a few of these Christmas Exchanges and I am always pleased at the results, the gifts made, the talent and generosity of our participants. Thank you all and congratulations to the coordinators of this exchange for bringing it to a successful completion.

The bow that I was working for the trade decided it did not want to be a bow but a very nice piece of kindling.  I have a plan B but it is getting close to the wire.  Pretty bummed out but that's bow making.  I will still be on time, just a setback >:(
