The carpet is thick, soft and cream coloured, while the walls are a yellow bronze colour. In the corner along one wall there is a large sofa, able to seat 4 or 5 people comfortably. Along the other corner wall there is a smaller sofa for 2 or 3 people. In the middle of the furniture, there is a low, round coffee table, perfect for colouring at or for other craft activities.

There is a scratching post and a cat tree for climbing, which are both along the wall opposite the couch. A few fluffy beds have also been put out, in varying sizes, in case any one prefers the floor. There is also a large sturdy perch and a marked off area that says "Landing Pad" in case any winged friends want to visit.

There is now a blue chaise chair in the nook as well, which has been placed near the couch and is good for both sitting and spreading out lengthwise. There are also two armchairs; one an oversized, deep gray leather chair, the other a square fabric armchair in deep blue with light purple swirls on it (Think this style except not grey).

There are two baskets off to the side. One contains fuzzy blankets, a variety of fuzzy and textured pillows, and a collection of stuffed animals while the other contains a variety of art supplies, ranging from colouring pages and blank paper to crayons and coloured pencils, and more besides.

I'm going to work on my Christmas gifts for now, but I'm more than happy to pause my work if anyone would like cuddles.

What gifts are you working on?

I haven't really started shopping yet.

I'm crocheting dishcloths. :) I made a few for my household earlier in the year and my sister thought they were make good Christmas gifts. I don't mind making them, so we picked out colours together and I wanted to get a head start on them. I have a tendency to procrastinate but would rather avoid having to binge-make them right before Christmas.

I've done a bit so far. Mostly because my sister starts very early and it always prompts me to get my stuff done as well.

Oh, that's clever! They can be both pretty and practical.

I will try to make a post with some of the pictures. I'm quite pleased with how the stripes have turned out. :D However, I am not looking forward to tucking in all the ends from the colour changes. -.-

I would love to see them!

Could you make fringe, or tassels, or French braid them?

I'll work on that as soon as I get a free minute. :)

I was thinking about a fringe, but I'm concerned that it won't be practical/will look silly on a dishcloth.

I looked it up. Fringed dishcloths exist -- mostly woven but a few knit or crochet. You're making multiples, right? You could make one with fringe, test it, and if it doesn't work well, choose a different finish for the others. I'm kinda thinking that fringe might be good for getting into hard-to-reach spaces.

Ah, that's a good idea. I am making multiples so I could do that.

The Stitchwraith creeps in to peer at J’s project. They take out their sketchbook from under their trench coat and write a message because talking always takes a lot of energy for them.
“Your Christmas presents that you’re making. So pretty!” And then they add a little smiley face.
Once that’s done, they flop down beside J, arranging their lanky metal limbs in a comfortable way, and start to work on their drawing. They’re drawing a very detailed landscape picture of a lighthouse overlooking some stormy ocean. There’re even some gulls nesting on the rocks.

Thank you! I quite like the colours of the cloths, and the stripes have turned out well. :)

Oh, that looks like an amazing picture! I like ocean pictures a lot. :)

I'm happy you stopped by today. :)
