So, umm, been a while!

I've been gone for ages! I've been so busy with life that I just haven't had time to craft! And that sucks! :) 

But here are a few things I've done in the last almost-year: 

Penny helping me with a project I later frogged. 

Home/ bedroom renovations.. How amazing are LED LIGHTS? way more exciting than the small wall I knocked down. 

I made quite a few hedgehogs.. I've made like 6 of them now. :)

Also crocheted a dinosaur! he is Huge and beautiful, if a little unsteady on his feet.

And that brings me to my current dinosaur! Another stegosaurs!

Dinosaurs!

I'm not dead!

And I learned to knit properly! So I made dinosaurs.

I used Tina Barry's Knitted Dinosaurs book, which is fantastic to make these:

I made another bear... I think I have a problem.

I was talking to a work colleague, and we got to talking about crochet, because she's just getting back into knitting and crocheting. I was in the middle of making my hedgehog from my (rather long ago, I will admit) last post, so I had it with me and I showed it to her.

Then we got to talking about other things we've made, so I mentioned my bear habit. She'd just found out she was about to become a grandmother, and asked if she could commission one! I brought in a couple of my pre-made ones for her to have a look at. She loved the white one, and the baby is a boy so she asked if it could have blue accents.

Easy :)

Here he is!



I even learned to tie a tie properly - figured I may as well do it properly. That's a half-windsor knot. :)






I SOLD MY FIRST THING.


I should really sell some more.
I did just buy a house.
Speaking of which, I may start posting some of my house-craft things in the future too. I haven't done much, but I will be doing a few little things.
