Wow, that's some effort you've put in there Aelys!

As for me, well...my second item kinda failed. I had to re-do 80% of it from scratch today...and because I am recycling materials the bit I ended up with has turned out to be bigger than I planned - and slightly bigger than the mystical envelope :( - but it looks so much better this time (so far). I hope nobody minds the size thing :sorry:
I will do some more to that tomorrow, and also make my third item (which will be very small). With any luck I'll post it this week :D

I actually meant to say that I worked at my *real* job until 2am every night this week. :blush: But, since I work from home, I can craft during my breaks and that's how I got the second item finished!

Also, incidentally, I don't know what's happening with game publishers this year. We usually translate a lot during the summer for games to be released in the fall, then it thankfully slows down from September on and we kind of hibernate (and craft!). But this year we keep getting games, including some big titles, and nothing seems to slow down at all. I had accumulated a lot of material to stitch and knit during my slow time, but I haven't started any new projects yet. Can someone please tell them not to put out so many games? :grin:

Okay, I'll stop ranting about localization now and go back translating.

Eager to see if someone else gets their gift today. I think I'm enjoying seeing everyone else's gifts just as much as I did making mine, and as much as I'm sure I will enjoy receiving mine!

I'm thinking my partner will get their gift in the next day or so if they haven't already...
And mine didn't fit in the envelope size either - I blame my poor maths.

Mine is officially going to be in the post! Tomorrow! I've been trying to write them a nice note and I keep making mistakes - and thus having to redo my writing D: ...Perhaps I should change to pencil... :pac
