I am near the Finish Line

If all goes well I will be wearing this one by the Weekend :-)) It may look green in this photo but its khaki brown.


And this is how Happy I will be wearing it! (Hopefully Not at a Rodeo, tho)


I had to show off my cutest ever new Tape Measure! (i was so glad i had one break to justify getting this Owl)
Once it dries I will sew my shoulder seams and weave thru the I Cord (that I am still working on) to cinch up the waist.

Drying Fruit

Found a Bargain at a Garage Sale in Texas and spent more $$$ shipping it Home ! But I have been putting it to good use !


First I did apples sprinkled with cinnamon, very yummy! Second time around, getting more adventurous with Apricots and Nectarines.


It all makes for such a beautiful picture.


Also makes a nice Mess !


This model is a noisy bugger !

First Yarnbox

Not real thrilled with this month's selection of Yarns.
Recycled Silks from India, all Dry Clean only .....


I will give a few more months, because they claimed this was an experimental month.
So I am searching for ideas as to What to make out if these, any ideas ???

I Do as Pinterest Says !

First you get your 'Garage Sale Opposed' Husband to Stop at the First Sale you see, and Completely luck out !!! Because they have exactly what you want and it's only $1.....go figure.


The lid was chipped, but I am not going to be using that part anyway ;-)

Introduce a few cans of Spray paint (that I always have on hand)


And Start Swirling the two colors on the 'Find' of the day !





Always keep by your side, a few helpers .....





Taa Daa !!!
A Yarn Ball TeaPot !


The idea is that now the yarn ball won't roll away from you or get carried off by 'said previous Helpers'


I must say, it's quite darling.


Me and my TeaPot shall travel from room to room to savor a little knitting time together !


Thx Pinterest :-))

On The Flip Side

I bought this Hand-Made Bag at a LYS, with good intentions ;-)


And what I really liked about it was the 'Inside' !!


But I had to make a few adjustments for this to work.


I changed out the Ribbon on the Strap and added a coordinating flap closure (since the magnetic closer was now on the outside of the bag)


Now the big pockets are on the Outside, which works for me. I also velcro'd an acrylic rectangular base in the bottom of the bag for stability !


My Knitting is inside and ready.... Where shall I meet you??
