I'm super excited this week because I'm finally going to have a craft room!!! My brother moved out of my parents house last year and last week he finished getting his things out of the room. He let me have his room and my parents agreed to let me use it as my craft room! The best part is that he put in bamboo flooring a while back so its going to look awesome once its finished. I won't be able to buy a lot of knew items but I have plenty of things to put in there already. First up will be to paint the room since green is really not my color. I'm thinking I should be done painting by next Wednesday so I'll update about it then. :)
I started my mom's birthday present. She love's stuffed animals as much as I do so I am making her this one in her favorite color, pink! Any guesses on what animal it is?
Last but not least remember last week I mentioned I was working on a case for my hooks and needles made in Tunisian crochet. Well It was a little hard to explain what it was going to look like then but after working on it this past weekend, I think you will get a better idea. Basically I am going to make layers of fabric in Tunisian crochet, then I will sew down the line where the pockets will be. This is only one side of it. I will store all my straight needles, dpn, and crochet hooks on this side. I also made some room for my Hairpin Lace loom. The other half will store my circular needles and other tools I have around.
I haven't had time to work on my entrelac baby blanket yet so I think I won't be able to finish it this month. I still have 8 more amigurumi to work on so that will be taking up most of my time along with these projects above.
Don't forget to come back for Finished Object Friday!
hmmm it looks like some saggy boobs! LOL
ReplyDeletea piggy!
the hook case looks interesting. you dont think the needles will poke through the crochet fabric?
I need to make a needle holder. Great idea! And congrats on a dedicated craft space. We have one in our house (that my kids and I share) and I love it! It is nice to have a place to leave projects out to come back to at another time! What color are you going to paint?
ReplyDeleteooh cute crochet case, I love it!!! And the little pink animal - a pig maybe? Have a creative wednesday xx
ReplyDeleteNo guesses for me about what the animal is ... could be almost anything at this point unless what I think are legs are actually bunny ears?
ReplyDeleteLove the craft room. The green is amazing - very energizing!
I don't know what are you crocheting for your mom, but the color is lovely.
ReplyDeleteHere's my WIP: http://mibruno.com/en-proceso-80/
I am going to guess pig or dog for your animal. You crochet case is a really great idea.
ReplyDeleteVery creative to hook up a case for your supplies. Crocheted fabric is so much thicker and sturdier. That is one vivid Kelly green. I can't wait to see your remodeling going. Wonderful, supportive parents you have to give you the room. I think you're whipping out an oinker.
