Hummm


My jumbo fat bottom bag fell through because i ran out of yarn. My machine knit ballet t shirt fell through becasue i do not have enough needles. I have not started my machine knit anouck becasue i do not have the right yarn (cause you know i got yarn). this is why I am Creative (the ablity to fail without losing enthusiam).

On a brighter note I looked at all the ballet t shirts on Ravelry and I did not know you can make a baby one! So I am buyng the pattern today. I have to make some adjustments to make mine. One lady on ravelry gave a quick tut on how to do it so I am happy about that as well. The picture is the start of the german granny bag. I have 3 of 16 complete the five round granny squares. I just had a thought that I could make traditional squares and use a corrdinanting print fabric that you could see through the holes. a kntted one would be nice too just make 16 squares all the same size and sew them together. I need to work on that project. A german tote bag. Raena and I both thought about the sun spots and a nice bag I said even a larger than life bag. It would be the round larger than life. See now I want that one. it only took 1 and 1/2 skein of red heart to make 12 probably the other half to make 16. I would like that better. And i still can have my corrdinanting fabric. it is good to be creative.

Not Enough Needles



I made my swatch last night washed and dried it and everything! i put my infomation into Knitware and the patterns generates...I need at least 152 needles! So i may just buy the pattern i have some 15's at the house it only took Adrieene (sp) 5 hours I can do it. I thought it was knitted straight so i was like no got to do it on the machine but reading the description it is knit in the round and you do not even cut the yarn. SO I will just buy the pattern it is only $6.

Beautiful Iining



this will be the lining for my black buttonhole bag I made out of crochet nylon. Now I know those a navy blue flower but it is gorgeous I cannot help it. Now I wish I had some navy blue crochet nylon or wool. I bought the last yard Walmart had. it was $2 a yard.

@#$%^&* I am finished!@#$%%^


I am so mad. I mean I am glad I am finshed but I don't like it

it looks so unfinished. I am either goign to crochet and attach some long white handles or buy some short bamboo hadles. I need to take it by This and That so I can show them that I finished something. I went to them alot for advice and I am just now finishing something.

My next plan is to finshed my other granny square bag by sewing onto the other totoe bag I had. I may need to take soemthing off that bag as well to get it to fit onto the toe bag but we will see.

Ain't this just the cutest thing you ever did see!


They are ice cream sandwich molds! you cut out two cookies put one cookie inside place a scoop of ice ccream then the other cookie on top then press down. Remove the cover and push out the sandwich! I am already thinking that I am buying a pan of pre made brownies or those big soft cookies from pepperidge farm. The instructions says bake a pan of cookies. Either way I cannot wait The baby wants some for her birthday party!
