Finished baby hats..
Got some baby hats finished and shipped off this week. An accomplishment. The green hat was done on circulars - only my second project done on the circular needles. I embroidered flowers on it. It came out a lot better than I expected. The multi-colored hat was just fun to work with. I really wanted squiggles on the top, but that didn't work ( Read more... ) -

Finished my multi shrug.. I like it. This was before the excitement. You should be able to see it from the little blue link. Now.. an experience of a lifetime.. Early Friday morning, my eardrum decided to rupture. I have had masteoidectomies on my ear from cholesteatomas but it has been 4 years since I have had my ear go bonkers. I was in sooo ( Read more... ) -
Stace saved the day..
So - I have been working on another shrug.. Well, I started with this old yarn that was probably older than me that I got from my mother. It is like a dark purplish navy blue yarn - yet it is very soft.. I like it. Yesterday I ran out of the yarn while I was casting my main piece off of my needles!! DOOOOOOHHHH!! I cut a snippett to take with me ( Read more... ) -

Okay I completed the green shawl day before yesterday and it didn't quite turn out like I had expected. Well, what I was wanting was a long shawl that comes to a V in the back and goes from like hand to hand. The shawl did not come out like I expected, it has become a shoulder shawl/poncho! Also, my hubby's cat - Smokey - a 20lb sack of potatoes ( Read more... ) -
Kingdom of Heaven
Last night we watched the movie Kingdom of Heaven. It was a pretty good movie. All of this fighting.. pitiful and it is true, most of it is over religion. I mounted some of my sculptures on little wooden painted platforms and varnished some more faces I made. Today it is my intention to start a shawl. Nothing fancy - just a pretty dark green ( Read more... ) -

I love to create...
My mind just goes and goes and doesn't stop... Man I love it - and then I can't stand it because once it starts, it overflows and I cannot sleep and my energy level gets so high and I just have to pour it into something - otherwise I am left staring at the red digits on the clock at 2:48am thinking, I need to do something... it is just. erghh..
