Productive weekend

Even with a conference in Richmond, I had a really great weekend got creating, inspiration and finishing.

First, crocodile man II is done, detailed, and really for a new owner.heather, at urban gypsy, told me that crocodile man (the first) was bought by a woman who lives in italy. she bought crocodile man to take back home to her grandson. it is a really awesome realization to think that something that I made 1 night is now living in a foreign country.

Seester sent me a few items to add to this week  of urban gypsy goodies. she really does make high quality crocheted items. n 2 of the pictures of love you can see where I have detailed a set of her finger gloves with a mama bird coming to visit her robins nest of eggs. don't ask me why, but I am obsessed with the color turquoise right now. Thus, these  eggs ended up being turquoise and not the traditional white or speckled or brown.

I have made it a rule that I have to complete something of knitting before I can start something new of knitting. Knitting takes so so so so so much longer than crochet.  I genuinely like knitting's final product better right now.  I suspect that once I am  as good at knitting as I am crochet, I will find out how they are equally useful , and I will hopefully lose my present obsession with the final product  look of knitting.

what you also see in the pictures of love is a head wrap with an owl detail. I have added a tree branch so sad mister owl is not just sitting all alone on that head wrap.

my goal for this week is to get ashley her a lot of items by tuesday. then, I hope to start working on christmas presents for everyone  whom I love. I also hope to finish seester's christmas hat this week and start on something for smith family member.  I would really love to make the Barfoot clan a hat each. I think that seester and I could get that done between now and christmas.
