Its done! Its heavy and I killed my wrist and hand crocheting it but I think I sorta like it. It falls in the yum/yuck category for sure. A great stash busting project and it came together pretty qui...

The awesomeness that is Jodie is hosting a rag rug along. I saw the girls (Fi, Bianca, Jodie & Kate) talking about it on twitter and was tempted. Then thought nah. Dont have the time etc. Then Sa...
Well, I cant make any promises but I seem to be hanging on to the blog even though Im not often here. Im gonna try. Seriously. So, good Christmas and New Year? I had an awesome at home holiday with t...
Can we just ignore that its been months since Ive posted here? Ok. Shannon does commissioned portraits so I figured it would be a great Christmas present to myself and Sondra. I gave her a vague brie...
Ive become obssessed with embroidering and cross stitch and crochet edging. Excuse the lack of ironing. See more. I want to crochet all edges of all things. I ripped my palm. I guess its a crossfit r...

Nope no witty title and no more apologies for my lack of posts, its boring! This lovely was made using Claires pattern. SUCH a fun crafty project, I ended up using size 6 month instead of 18 month so...
This blog year might be the year of few words and more pictures as a way of me finding my way back to blogging. So, can I distract you all with a slideshow of 2010s crafting? No? Umm how about a Tim ...

Ok, this is a pretty average picture, bad lighting at night time, at the moment its going to have to do :) Super easy. String a bunch of felt balls onto bakers twine, then start crocheting a chain, s...
Again, liberal usage of bakers twine. Easy, simple idea. Styrofoam balls (or paper mache balls), wrap your ball, decorate with ribbon and fasten with small pins and done.
