DIXON – Dixon crafter Ann Love of Imagine That may be the first in town who already is prepared for Christmas.

It is the one season she thinks about and works toward year round. Love’s handcrafted holiday art, which has been sold at arts and craft shows all over Illinois for the past 9 years, will be at the Post House Ballroom today and Saturday in a special sale she hopes to make an annual affair.
