Delia the creative dervish

Remember I told you that Delia needed to be entertained and asked you for ideas?

So far this summer, she has made:

A denim skirt, sewn with the assistance and guidance of dlandon. A matching jacket will be made on a future get together

Ten necklaces and "about a billion pairs of earrings" (and she helped me design a necklace and pair of earrings for me to wear)

Knitted bookmarks (several of them), tiny Gryffindor scarves from the book Charmed Knits: Projects for Fans of Harry Potter, using yarn that aome sent her

Started a knitted blanket

Started a cross stitch project from a package sent by haniaw (Thanks, we got the box!)

Made several soulcollage cards

Taken jewelry-making lessons

Taken a cake-decorating course

Cooked several dinners

Practiced crocheting (no specific project yet)

Started making a quilt ("although I'm probably never going to finish it")

She has bullied Rob into driving her to Michaels, Arc (where she can get secondhand craft supplies) and JoAnne Fabrics repeatedly in the last several weeks. "She's relentless" says Rob with a touch of consternation. "I never need to set my alarm in the morning because Delia's always waking me up and ordering me to take her somewhere to get craft supplies."

It would be a box about the size of a standard book-shipping box, of the kind they'd give you at Borders if you asked for boxes. Does that make sense?

That would be fine--thanks!
