Happy Monday Crafty Friends!
Hi
everyone! Oh Friday where did you go…seems like I saw you just a second ago! It
seems as if I blink and the weekend is gone. However, Monday through Friday
pass so slow.
On the Home Front:
We are still working on the crafting building. Not a lot of progress since my last post. It has either rained or been too hot. This weekend holds much promise though for some more work to be done. All I have to say is that Mitch (the husband) better get a movin’ if he is getting this done by my birthday which is October 11th!
What’s in my ears:
My two favorite podcasts Josh on swordofaknitter and Ross smellgreatguy and CHRISTMAS MUSIC! I listen to AccuRadio http://www.accuradio.com/#!/more/accuholidays/
On and Off my Needles:
I am still working on the my second sock. I have about 2 inches
more and then the toe!. These will look like two different socks because the
second is actually done correctly! Oh well, You will still find me with them on
running around the house this winter! I
completed the “September 2014 Dishclothalong” with smellsgreatguy aka funkoboy. I used Sugar
and Cream Hot Orange colorway. I cast on the hitchhicker shawl with some
fingering weight yarn Loops and Threads Woolike in the Beige colorway.
On my Hook:
No progress here! I still have a chevron Razorback colors baby
blanket to complete. It is almost done. As Mitch’s (my hubby) Granddad Floyd
always use to say “I just need a little time”! I have not crocheted at all
since the last post.
Swap Obsessions:
I sent my Hot Chocolate swaps. 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. I have completed my
Arkansas squares for a swap and I need to get this sent. I sent my thank you
package to funkoboy he should get it today being Monday.
On the Sewing Front:
I seem to be project bag crazy! They are turning out so cute and
I am getting much better at them. I have been putting fusible fleece in the new
ones and that makes them much nicer. I still don’t like the way the zipper is
looking. I need to work on the zipper. I just love making the beaded zipper
pulls. I have had some people want to buy them, but materials are so high and I
just don’t think people will be willing to pay what they are actually worth,
but I do think I will make some for Christmas presents.
Other Crafting projects:
I made cute zipper pulls for my project bags and a few beaded
stitch markers. They were fun and I really enjoy this craft!
If I just didn’t have to work for money, I could get so many crafts
completed! Until next time…Happy Crafting!
Cindy
