Picky Lady

Okay, remember the picky lady with the black and burgundy scarf? She likes it so much she hasn't taken it off since she got it. Now her friend wants one like it in brown and navy plus someone else wants a cupcake hat. (I forgot to get pics of that one I think)
I'm trying to get some stock built up for my etsy, but I'm so busy with orders from my mom's co workers. I know I shouldn't complain, but I am. bleh.

Tea Leaf




Here's my little donkey. His name is Tea Leaf. I'm really happy with him. I used the pointy kitty pattern and made his ears longer and his tail shorter. Most of him is done in the blanket stitch. It took me just as long to sew him up as to cut out all the pieces. I really need to practice my sewing and cutting skills!

Simple Birthday Card


Here's a birthday card for a dear friend. I made this last night. It was harder than you think because I am not very talented in the paper arts area. I actually like how this turned out even though its very simple. I didn't get a picture of the back, hence the black with white text.

Getting the Hang of This





Wow, I'm getting frustrated tryint to learn how to do this. Grr... Anyway, lets try again:


My mom's co worker ordered a bunch of scarves from me and hated them. (she's got no style!) I was surprised when she actually ordered more from me! This time I was not nearly as happy and creative. The black one is just regular old double crochet with a giant hook. I didn't even weave the ends. I just added the fringe. The other one looks red but it is burgundy. The stripes are all random. I absolutely hated working on this one because of all the ends, but by the time I finished the picot edge I wanted it. :)


For those of you who know my work, you'll recognize the next 2 things. These canvases are my latest projects. The green one is called Wrapped Around Her Finger. It looks crooked, but thats the way I was holding the camera. The other one is called Our Last Phoenix. The biggest circle will be on the bottom left.


I'm off to finish cleaning my craft room and trying to reorganize it to make it more efficient. Also, I don't know how to make the pictures come after the post. bleh.

Well, this is new...

After having so much trouble with myspace I am now going to blog here. This is a place where you can see my completed works and hopefully I'll remember to update this with in progress pics as well. I make stuff pretty much everyday, but I don't always remember to post pics. I know some of you out there love to browse though, so I'll try to keep it interesting.
Well, I'm off to craft to try to keep your attention. Maybe I'll have a pic of something tonight?
