i am awesome

for seriously. today i FINALLY finished my mom's christmas present. and because it's so late she's getting a few extra goodies. yay! it's far from perfect but i'm feeling freaking proud of myself because i made something all. by. myself. no pattern, no tutorial, nada. ok... one of the goodies was tutorial inspired, but that's it. i'm psyched to show it to all of you, but on the off chance that mom checks my blog today i'm not posting pictures until next week. i'm sure the anticipation is just killing you.
