I warned you I suck at writing patterns. Thank you so much for all your patience and feedback. Recently I was contacted by Laurel who kindly pointed out a mistake in Rnd 18 (of the head) in THIS patt...
Hi Everyone... I know I've been horribly irresponsible with this site lately. I hope you didn't abandon me thinking that I abandoned you! Certainly not, I've just been gravitating towards more mundan...
I’ve been doing a variety of things around here. Mostly mudane and not worth posting about. My daughter’s school semester is one half day away from the end and I have good intentions for summer vacat...
I'm trying to dig out my creative self again. My TRUE creative self that once was when I was much younger. I was a fount of creativity back then and now this dried up well only trickles the occassion...
Today is a good day. I think it's a good day. At least, it's a better day than some of the recent days I've had in a long while. The weather is mild with the smell of fresh rain in the air. The flowe...
Oh my goodness, please forgive me. I thought that pattern was complete but one of you lovely readers (Celene!) have called to my attention that I have left poor Zoe armless! I did warn I am a horribl...
How many here remember my little doll "Nameless"? Show of hands?*crickets*Ok, I know it's been a long time. I'm ashamed to say that it's been since February that I've done anything with this doll. An...
Thank you all for the kind words regarding my father's death. All in all I think I'm doing all right. Some days are better than others of course but what is there to do but live on? I know my dad wou...
I wanted to try something different. Is that ok? Here are some charms I made from Sculpey. I used ivory Sculpey, baked it, put in the hooks, then painted them with acrylic paints and glazed them with...
Sad news in AmiG world... my dad passed away quite suddenly last Thursday. Age 67. No warning. Just gone. :( Sorry I'll be MIA again for awhile... till next time (-_-)
So I might be a little slow to get on the bandwagon, but here it is: Save Handmade Toys. Because of all the insanity in toy safety in 2007 there have been some modifications to laws on toys. Good and...
Ok. I've been back from Thailand now for three weeks and the Christmas rush is over so I guess it's time to check in. Thailand was...certainly a trip to remember. Other than some physical ailments on...
I have nothing to report on the crafting front. Nothing. At all. I’m STILL working on that cabled scarf. I’m STILL working on that drawing (barely). But most of all I’m working on getting ready for a...
(hm that could be a good title for a children’s story maybe…)I started this drawing at the beginning of the month hopeful that by the end I’d surely be done with it (ugh I forgot how slow going stipp...
The Western Railway Museum is not too far from where we live – less than an hour, an easy peasey day trip no problem. We arrived later in the day than we had planned but it turned out that was the be...
Since I’m not doing very well in the amigurumi making department at the moment I thought I might as well talk about other people who are. There are so many skilled people out there. One of my favorit...
I love art/office/school supplies. Now that I’m not in school anymore I don’t have any good excuses for buying loads of that type of stuff though. My daughter is still a little too young to really ne...
Everything but amigurumi. Sorry. I didn’t get very far with the whole amigurumi-ing during my midweek weekend. :( I tried. I really did. I got the yarn out, I had my hooks out, I even started somethi...
Today and tomorrow is my midweek weekend. I don’t have to go to work, I usually don’t have any appointments, my daughter is in school all day. Life is good. It used to be better in the sense that I h...
I think I've been too busy. But then when people ask me what I've been doing I don't seem to have much to say. Do you ever feel like that? It seems like I feel like that a lot lately. Day to day that...
My daughter is fine, by the way. After a very dead to the world three hour nap yesterday morning she woke up spryer than ever. *BOING* “What day is it? Is it Friday??” she says, no SINGS, as she prac...
When I was a kid I remember pretending to be sick and getting away with it. When I was a kid I remember actually being sick and sent to school anyway. And as a kid I was like, “What is going on with ...
So my husband has been saying for ages, "You should totally hook up your amigurogimimi (he calls it something different everytime) site with our paypal dealio and try to get donations!!" This he says...
I haven't been on much at all. :( I have a lot of reasons/excuses but, really, who wants to read those?I got a nice surprise today when I finally did login however. Little Z has given me an "award"? ...
I finished her not too long after my last post actually. I haven't posted her because I feel there's still a lot missing.... details, if you will. But I feel bad for not sharing what I have with you ...
I've been slowly working away on a new amigurumi. She's my own pattern so it takes longer that way. You'd think it would be faster since I don't have to keep stopping to check a pattern, but in fact,...
