My sweater is coming along really well. I'm finished with the back
piece and about a quarter through with the front. My pop tab purse is
at a stand-still. I have finished the main part of the bag, but now I
need to sew a liner. I have the fabric, but I don't know how to use the
sewing machine. A^A I started crocheting a summer hat three days ago.
I'm having to improvise the pattern a little bit because I'm using a
different yarn weight, but despite this, it's looking pretty good so
far. ^U^In May I crocheted an amigurumi horse for a friend using a unicorn pattern.
This month I crocheted a funky toy for my cat, Casey May, using a free pattern from the Lion Brand website.
I also beaded two stitch markers! I only had two clasps, otherwise I would have made more.
On the site, I have updated pictures of my dolls and added new pictures of my guitar. Also, I have finally gotten around to making a how-to French braid tutorial! Taking the step-by-step pictures was a bit hard, and I'm not completely happy with a couple. I hope to replace at least one of them, but first I have to re-braid my doll's hair. =Q= My scrummy cupcake avatar is from my affiliate Zuri!
Also, I joined the Quilting Bee club! It's a really fun club where you design your own patch and collect other members' patches to make a pixel quilt! I designed my patch to look like a knitted cable swatch. You can see my quilt here: link.
I updated the quotes page, and I'm keeping my eyes peeled for more good quotes to add. I also added a captcha script to prevent spam bots from commenting on my blog.
I'm going to an arts & crafts fair and car show later today. :D On the site, I updated and organized my portfolio page and added a photo to my reading list.I made my affiliates sheep avatars. I hope they like them.
I went to Stonehenge last weekend! It was really fun. However, I sat by a window on the ride there and the bright sun nearly made me melt! I want to crochet a summer hat with a brim to keep the sun out of my eyes. BD The weather was really nice while I was there. Afterward, I went to a cathedral nearby and by then the sky was overcast and it rained a little bit. It was a very long drive home and I got pretty tired. zQz I'll upload a picture when I can. ^U^ My internet keeps disconnecting and has problems redialing so I don't think I can make any updates until it's fixed... D:
Edit: Here's a picture from my trip!
I installed CuteNews and moved my craft blog to here! I really love crafting so I should post regularly. ^U^ I retired all of my previous skins and installed this new layout featuring a photo I took of a forsynthia bush. I had the hardest time with the coding. I could not get the DIV to work properly in Internet Explorer! I may try to recode later... I also added a few photos of my dolls to my pictures page.
I finished my crocheted skirt on April 10th! I followed a pattern in the Spring 2008 issue of Interweave Crochet called 30th Street Station Skirt. It took about two weeks and a half to make. :D
I started knitting a cardigan on April 11th.
I started crocheting a skirt today. ^U^
