I have finished the Sara Shawl and it's off in the mail to Australia. Hopefully it will get there this week. Crochet wise I have 3 open projects.:
Michaela scarf: Ready to be finished now that the Sara is done
Gryphon baby boy blanket: About 70% done, and going to try to stitch on some dinosaurs in felt when I am done, just because I have never done it before and little boys like them.
Fibromyalgia wrist warmers. I think I finally have found the right yarn for this, question will be how to put on a butterfly that looks cool and does not hurt the skin of the wearer. We fibromites are sensitive in the skin dept.
On the jewelry side of the house I am doing a challenge every week to make a project in certain colors. You can look up the group on facebook by typing CCC into the search bar and it should come right up. Beginners are very welcome and there are a LOT of very experienced people in that group that teach, help, etc. I am skipping the challlenge this week, which is called "Monkey Business" so I can hang out with my cousin and go to comic con!! An angel gave us 4 free tickets.
I'll probably write about what we see ( and who) in the next blog.
I have also been busy doing catch up work on some projects. Here are 2 of my polymer clay creations:
This is a bundle of polymer lilies with silver wire wrap on top and a swarovski crystal. I may but something cute on the leaves on the front there like a tiny flower or a bug, or crystal. Undecided on that so far. but at least I stopped wobbling on it and made a pendant rather than a pin.
This is my first set of polymer beads made as a set to go together to make a necklace or earrings or something. Am happy with how the berries turned out. Ok with the hearts.... leaves need work,. I have a lot to learn, but am having a great time with it. Soneone told me you can varnish polymer clay by using future floor wax, so I have baby food jars of that sitting around my kitchen table.
Hope you are all having a great weekend!
