T+10: DONE


Phew! For a while there I didn't know if I'd make it, but here we are at the end of this journey!

Truth be told, I was running out of ideas for fast projects until I got an adorable note card in the mail yesterday - such a simple and easy design, and totally moldable to whatever sentiment you are trying to say. The beauty of these note cards is that they are almost like a tag - you just write on the back.

I also finished off a couple of projects for my cousin's baby shower this weekend... there is actually one more I need to finish which will be my focus every waking minute between now and Saturday! Keep your fingers crossed that I get it done on time!!!

Well, here's the final five!

361 - Little Ted in Blue (*See Above)
362 - Nursery Napkins (set of 15 - 5 each in 3 designs)
363 - Thanks note card
364 - Because I Care note card

And finally...

365 - Good Luck note card
For the next project, of course!

Expect to see more posts on this blog as I will keep talking about my favourite projects that I complete - but probably not as often. As of September 1st, my new crazy project begins - 200 books read and reviewed in one year!!! You can follow that journey at covers2covers.blogspot.com

Thanks for watching - keep crafting!

Day 14: Sweet Teddy

So, after the god of chaos, I needed to balance out my karma again - or at least try to!

We found out about another pregnancy in the family (not me!), and so baby projects are going to be prevalent over the next few months. I've had a pattern for a sweet little crocheted teddy bear for a while, and hadn't tried it before, so no time like the present!

The pattern wasn't too difficult, and used less than one skein of yarn. A little embroidery floss was used for detailing the nose and feet, and a new darling was created.

I'd say this project qualifies as medium in difficulty. As with Cthulu, the stitches are done on the round, and careful attention is needed not to get lost!
