Crafters Challenge March 6th-12th

[Lana]

Seems alot of you are moving on some of your list and also coming up with new things.

I wonder if I will ever get moving on mine?!?!? I know I will in time. With the wedding we are getting things all ordered and pretty well lined out. I will have more time after this and will really be moving on crafts. Will have to!

So I am still looking thru material for some items to see if I have what I need or have to buy.

As usual we all like to hear and see what you are working on.

Keep on crafting!!!!

Seems like several haven't posted for awhile. I am sure life has happened and taken their crafting time. We need just a few more hours in the day for "our time".

I picked up my glass blocks yesterday and worked on 3 of them. I have one more to go. Hopefully tonight I will get them finished!

Hi Lana and Snickerdoodle..

I want to finish my Bunny this week and also start on my sisters Table Runner.. Since we have Chemo this week.. I will need to finish up a crochet cowl scarf I was making... then I want to start some fingerless gloves.. Knitting or crocheting is easiest when we are at the hospital...

 

[Lana]

Snickerdoodle would love to see a picture of the blocks. That is great that you have 3 down!!!

Becky, Your scarf sounds nice. For you? Can't wait to see pictures of it and your bunny. I always thought that a pair of fingerless gloves would be kinda nice. May have to see about that.

Hey everyone!!

I have been working on several new things. I'm hoping to get around to posting some pictures on my blog later this week. It has been forever since I've updated it. This week I am working on a new monogrammed barrett/bow holder. They are for the shop, and they go together quick. I really need to clean off my table before I start another project, I think I have leftovers laying around from the last several projects.

Happy crafting!!

I've been working on my two at a time sox just to see how they come out.

I should work on DS's one at a time sox.

I may start a pair of wristlets because they knit up quickly.

May also start to do something with paper.

No progress here this week. Sick Sunday, diaper shower Monday, breastfeeding class Tuesday... maybe Wednesday I can get something done? I keep telling myself to make C's quilt priority. It's a SUPER EASY pattern- just checkerboard! But I can't make myself start. Aurgh!

 

[Lana]

MissBrittany, hope you are feeling better. Don't beat yourself up. You will get it done. You will get that burst of energy yet before Carson comes.

Hey,
Yes, life happens .... we had a computer hard drive crash. Just decided not to boot up about two weeks ago one morning. Sniff ...

So, while some things were saved last Dec. on my stick, some things were not. We've been recovering what we can remember. We also bought an external hard drive back up system!!!!!!!

So, I have done much crafting ...

:fireplace:

 

[jampss]

Hmmmm

Well, since my craft list on my computer's email was from Dec .... I will search on this site for my last entry!!

 

[jampss]

Ok, .... I found it!

Jampss, that totally sucks when the computer does that.

Glad you have been moving on crafts! I am not.

 

[snickerdoodle]

Sorry about your computer crash! What a pain that is. I have been having a hard time moving on my crafting as well. Just haven't had the time. I promise I will post pictures of my glass blocks as well as my ornaments. Hopefully(?) this coming week I will get them finished. I have to buy the lights that go in them. I hoping for a sale at Hobby Lobby or at least a 40% off coupon!

 

[Lana]

That is a great time to buy stuff with those coupons.

We will be waiting for pictures.

 

[Lana]

Carol how are your projects working out? I am sure just fine because you really have a knack for creative sewing stuff. If I only had a fourth or even an 8th of your sewing ability. I need to really try to use my machine to its full benefit. Just need to try it. With this wedding alot is on hold for a short time yet. Then I promise to do stuff and show.

Debbie, how are you coming this week?

 

[jampss]

Oh, yes, with a wedding ... everything can wait awhile! A season for everything .....

Have fun!

And thanks all ... computer crashes = no fun!
