Sewing!
I've had a new sewing machine as an early birthday present! \o/
I love it - it's so smooth (& quiet) & can do 5 different styles of button hole! I know, 5! LOL
I gave it a test drive this afternoon by making myself a pair of comfy lounge pants with some cute Thor fabric that I bought on holiday in the US (what can't you find in Walmart, eh? *g*)
I've been really enjoying my sewing over the last few months. Here are some of the bits & bobs that I've made:
A throw cushion for my friend's birthday:
A hot water bottle cover for my Mom:
A bag for me:
An iPad case for Mr B:
I got the awesome fabric from Hancocks when we were on holiday. :)
Ferdy Fox for my Mom:
I only wish places like Jo-ann's Fabrics & Hancocks shipped to the UK! We just don't have so many lovely fabrics to choose from here.
Btw - is anyone else having problems with their user icons? When I answer a comment, only my default icon gets used - even when I've selected another.

The Thor pants are brilliant, and it must be wonderful to be able to give 'home made' gifts to people - they're so much more personal.
*goes back for another look*
