Happy Monday Crafty Friends!
Hi
everyone! I haven’t posted in a while. I have been very busy crafting away!
On the Home Front:
Not much progress on the crafting building. Mitch (the husband) has been working in Georgia. I can never say that without singing the song! Lol My only Granddaughter Elle is 2 years old today and we will be celebrating her birthday this weekend. That being said, I doubt much gets done on the building this weekend. I have been crafting items for her birthday! Rip the rescue dog bit Mitch this last weekend. The dog trainer has yet to set up a time for our first meet. I hope this happens soon because Rip’s aggression is getting worse.

Mail for me:
I
received a swap from Finland which included native Finland blueberry tea, dried
blueberries, some blue variegated fingering weight wool, and beautiful blue
stitch markers. It was fantastic. I received some hot chocolate from England. Yummm
yummm! My yarn I ordered to create something Outlander inspired came! It is
wonderful!
What’s in my ears:

On and Off my Needles:
I haven’t knitted much on the second sock because I completed Kay
Jone’s Mrs. Bakery Bear! Well she is still naked because I am working on the
clothes right now. This was a fun knit! I still have the hitchhicker shawl cast
on and I have knitted some on it. I have am participating in the goatalong in
smells like yarn group on Ravelry. I have found a knit pattern of a goat and I
need to cast this on.
On my Hook:
No progress here! I still have a chevron Razorback colors baby
blanket to complete.
Swap Obsessions:
I am hosting a Thankful Thanksgiving Dotee swap on swap-bot and I
am hosting a “12 Days of Christmas” Dotee Swap for December which I mentioned
to ya’ll in an earlier post. I will be doing an Instagram square swap for September
on Ravelry and a scavenger hunt swap. I am just swapping 4 squares with someone
in California for the global square exchange. I think that is it.
On the Sewing Front:
I
have made so many project bags! Finding and buying the cute material is so fun!
I love making these along with the cute zipper pulls I put on them. I made a
couple along with some stitch markers so my friend could add to a prize for a
giveaway on the knit-along. Of course I had to make him a bag to keep and some
stitch markers to keep. He can choose what he wants give the other away. I
think I forgot to take pictures of the stitch markers. For Elle’s birthday. I
have sewn a tutu dance bang with her name embroidered on it. I have sewn a baby
doll diaper bag and a bunch of baby doll diapers. I filled the bag with all
kinds of stuff for a baby doll.
If I just didn’t have to work for money, I could get so many crafts
completed! Until next time…Happy Crafting!
Cindy
