I am actually crocheting

. . . sorta. I have been trying to pick it up at least once a day. It is very hard when everything is so up in the air (regarding work). Michigan is such a crap place to live right now. But anyways, I am so proud of myself, I completed this little cutie in ONE DAY! I tested the pattern for Stormy, and he turned out adorable!

Michigan

So it absolutely amazes me that less then 2 weeks ago it was sunny and 50 degrees, and all the snow was gone. And now it has been in the single digits to high teens all this week and we now have over a foot of snow on the ground!

So even though it is going to be quite crappy to drive in today, it sure is beautiful!!

Star Wars Horoscope for Pisces

A typical Pisces, you have your head in the clouds. You're self-sacrificing and a bit too passive to stand up to the dark side. You become fairly pessimistic when put under pressure. You are a chameleon - wanting to change your scenery on occasion. Star wars character you are most like: Lando

What Is Your Star Wars Horoscope?

Not exactly true, the first line is, but I think I stand out in a crowd! and I am much cuter the Lando!

Hoodie

I made a hoodie!!!!! I am not only a crochet addict, I also know how to sew!!! Except I really need to get a better chair for my machine, the dining room chairs really suck to sit in for too long. I will post the tute I followed (kinda) when crafters is back up from maintenance. The pic is kinda dark, I used a purpleish/grey camo and black.

don't you just love the camera in the face mirror pics!!!! It is the only way I could get a pic that looked half-way decent. I will try to get better pics up soon.

edit: Here is the link to the tute from Craftster.

Been a while

Oops I have been neglecting my blog!!!! I have been busy trying to get toys done for the many children in my life for Christmas presents. I think I am all done, I guess I will find out on Saturday, that is my last holiday party. I need to takes more pics of my latest projects, hopefully I will do that soon.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas, and Have a wonderful New Year.

It's SUPERMAN!!!! I made this for one of my best friends. He LOVES Superman. I took this pattern and just changed it from a girl to boy, and substituted colors as needed. I made the cap and chest shield on my sewing machine. He was so much fun to make, and he turned out so cute, that I want to keep him! I will have to make another one! Enjoy!
