justcreateHey, I remembered to do this before five in the evening! Woo!
Anyway, you know the routine. What have you gotten done? What do you need encouragement on? What are your plans? What are you working on today?

Date: 2022-01-22 07:45 pm (UTC)Today I'm working on a tote bag. It is a simple knitting pattern made with 100% wool yarn that I will then felt.
I'm not sure I mentioned this here, but I am thinking about being a vendor at craft fairs this year, so one thing I've been doing is testing out small patterns to see how viable they are. The Garter Bunny is one such pattern. Pros: Fast, Easy, Cute. Cons: It can't be firmly stuffed, and might be easy for it to come undone. Hmm. I'm undecided if I want to make more or not.

Date: 2022-01-23 02:18 am (UTC)I got this birthday card in November and squeed audibly. It has the pattern inside! This is my first finish of 2022. Yes, I know, the pattern is actually different from what's shown on the front. It's still super cute.
Half an ass is better than none, so I banged it into a cheap-ass frame from Michaels and called it done.
I used all DMC Etoile threads for this. They're nicely sparkly and only moderately annoying to work with. The lovely tin of threads is descending into chaos.
The card is by Moonpig. I gather it's an online service. My husband's aunt and cousin in the UK have used it to send us cards in the US a few times. I'm tempted to see if they have more cute designs like this. Because I totally need more projects...

I hope the vendor stuff goes well if you decide to do it. :)
