Bad me, I’ve fallen a little behind in updating my blog. I have been doing more crafty things lately so have quite a few pics to share.
I made a dragon egg to use as a prop with my dolls, and maybe something else…

I have been making icord with threads that are too fuzzy to do much else with. Right now I have started to make something with them, probably a rug, but we’ll see. I’m using the Embelish Knit tool I got at Joanns for $5 on clearance. It makes them very fast!


I hand sew this one. Deciding on which color to attach next.

And I finally go around to trying to make an amigurumi! I am very happy with how this little birdie turned out. I did not use any pattern for this but watched a video on Youtube on how to work in the round and do inc/decs. I am a new crocheter so this took a few times before I finally got it.

I finally finished up my grandmas present. I’ve been working on this punchneedle cardinal for a couple months now (between distractions!) and spent the afternoon doing the blue. I wish I could have found a better frame but there were not too many choices for a square frame in the right size. Either way I really hope she likes it.

Here is the needlepunch I have been working on. It is half done and then I just need to find a frame for it. Sorry for blurry pic.
