Proof we're "crafty"


Every year the Jones Family has the tradition where we draw names within the family and instead of buying presents we have to MAKE them. Of course this leads to some pretty funny gifts since our family is the antithesis of crafty. Brett and I drew Mammy and Pappy Jones. After a couple nights of failed attempts to thread the bobbin, poorly cut fabric, and crooked stitches we decided to use our lifeline: Janet Zobell.

Luckily we were in Utah for Christmas with Brett's family and opened our homemade presents AFTER Christmas. This was so the whole Jones family could be together since we were all headed to Utah for Joe and Bekah's wedding.

Thanks Janet for helping us make very nifty back pillows so Mammy and Pappy Jones won't have sore backs when they drive around the country!
