Good morning all....

It's still morning for 20 min here...

A lovely April day, and I'm stuck at work. Course, if I were home, I would be either planted in the living room with my crochet, or huddled upstairs by my sewing machine....

Or, who knows, probably still sacked out in bed. Insomnia sucks.

However, it's a Garden Party Blog Hop over at Sewhooked, so it's worth getting up.

And I finished my first block of it last night....totally going outta order, but I gotta do what I gotta do....

:D

This one is by Amy, and is day 11, of the Garden Party....

Welp, I have to get back to the working thing...I have a genealogy presentation to do later today, so I'd better get going.

Have a great day!

Just one of those days....

where I get a moment or two to myself and need to post some pics of what I'm working on....

I've finally started getting enough done on my amigurumi list to make the pieces actually LOOK like something....

Like this:

A roast beef dinner with yorkshire pudding, carrots and a salad. May still add something to this...it looks...unfinished.

Or perhaps you prefer....

Chicken with mashed potatoes instead...with some green beans and crescent rolls?

Not into meat? Maybe you'd rather have....

A veggie tray?

Feeling up for something different?



Maybe some pita with falafel?

I will probably post more pics of stuff next week!

Thanks for looking!

Some Amigurumi...

I've mentioned before I'm working on display pieces for an Amigurumi food display for this summer at my library. I finally have a few moments for some pics....if I can get them to work....

Some of my favorites so far....

A "Dagwood" sandwich...while not as impressive as a real Dagwood, I love it. It has bread, ham, cheese, bacon, tomato, onion, lettuce, and pickle....with an olive on top. ;D

Bell peppers in a variety of colors! I've since made another green one. :D

A small variety of the veggies I've been making. This includes potatoes, carrots, chili peppers, tomatoes, and squash...

And some fruits. This pic has the apples, oranges, lemons, limes, and strawberries. I've also added plums and pears.

More pics some time soon.

Enjoy!

Woot!!!

This month's TABABOM pattern is UP!!! And guess who got to be a sponsor for this month's prize?  Yep, me.  How cool is that?

You can check out Fandom In Stitches for this month's pattern and see pics of the prize!

Also, if I get a break tonight, I'm going to post LOTS of pics of the amigurumi project I'm working on!!! Nearly 25% done!!!

Huh...

I really thought I posted an entry last night. But it seems either I didn't or it got eaten...

No worries.  Basically, I was just excited to tell all 1 of my readers that I am currently at the 20% mark for getting this HUGE list of amigurumis done for a display for my library. :D

I'd share photos today, but the interwebs at work are having issues with social media websites. New filtering system is blocking a bunch of things it shouldn't be blocking. :(

Plans for March...

A few things on my plate for March....

-- Work on amigurumi display I mentioned...with nearly 600 pieces planned for it, I need to be cracking on it.

-- Work on trade piece and finish.

-- Make 2 pillowcases. Can't say more on that...

--Make at least 2 more SS character squares.

-- TABABOM next week!!!

--Finish scrap piece for Linus

Whew, I'm tired just READING THAT!!!!

*needs sleep*

Crochet musings...

This year's Summer Reading theme at our library is "Reading is SO delicious!"

Makes me want to make an amigurumi display.

And I started a list at home...with check boxes ...

Harry help me, I'm a fool for this craft.

I think what I have in patterns alone right now, I have enough for a rather full fruit basket, a veggie basket, and several "dishes" of foods....but I've been thinking, maybe I need to find more...

Oh, dear...I've given myself a new project...
