Work, Work, Work.

Hello every one!

This would be the second time I'm writing this blog,eeg as how my daughter hit just one key on the board and everything went poof. Fiddle sticks.

Round 2!

GO!

I wish I could crochet all day. But alas, after a hectic work schedule, my house as gone to pieces. You'd think SOME ONE ELSE vacuuming or dusting would would be an overexertion and simply too much to ask. Yikes. But...

I'm so proud of my work! I spent at least two hours writing and experimenting with a Santa hat for the be-a-utiful Miss Tara from TwoForTea Photography to no avail. I just could not get the shape I was looking for! Well, I then started on a search for pattern and one to a Pixie Hat! This crochet artist is simply amazing! Not only is her work amazing, but she is a wonderful teacher in our fine art. So, I just supplemented with red and white, changed the trim to suit me, and viola! A master piece. I definitely enjoyed myself.

No rest for the weary though, Tara's at it again! She's requested a felted project, of which I have no experience. I've always wanted to give it a go, so this sounds like a perfect opportunity to add to my repertoire of crafting skills. This project also calls for a small portion of burlap and fabric stiffener. I have idea where to get fabric stiffener. Suggestions? I suppose I'll make a Watlmart trip today and see what I can dig up. If not, there's always Micheal's! (There's one opening up only one block from my house! I'm so excited!

Happy Hooking, Loves!
