I love those wrist warmers. Very pretty too.

I'm working on a mixing bowl re-purpose project (http://scrapreusedandrecycledartprojects.blogspot.com/2012/01/garden-mushrooms-made-from-metal-mixing.html)

....cutting yo-yo's, working on some knitting, and crocheting and some ornaments....

Well, I finished the Mister's scarf just in time for our anniversary on Monday. Still spinning when I have time, but haven't had a chance to sew all week.

On top of that, he added a pillbox hat to my to-do list since bigmouth me mentioned a hat-making workshop I took several years ago...oy vey....

Snowing like crazy outside so I'm doing some sashiko stitching and catching up on some of my UFOs today.


I'll be offering these coasters in my sharny etsy shop soon. Great for coffee mug, tea cup or saki jigger!

My fingers were itching to work in polymer clay today. I wanted to make something cute and cheeful to sit in my craft room and remind to smile. I made this little clown and named her ClaraBelle.

Have decided to do some painting around the house to freshen up a little. Bought new dining chairs and have painted the dining table Coral to match the sofa. I wanted to keep the table as my husband made it out of a 200 year old, 32 pane, window from Vermont. It looks fabulous! Of course now I have to paint the living, dining and kitchen walls. Then on to the bedroom. Guess I'm coming back to being myself after this crushing past few months.

OK, I'm ready-Let's go.

Hi Girls, Today, I am going to get my housecleaning done...and then...it is up to the "alcove" for me. We have a small room at the top of our stairs...the door is even little...so cute, and I use it for storage right now. We have a futon in there...with a lamp...so if our son is here he has a place to sleep. But, I have not done a single crafty thing since we moved in...and I am itching to get back into my stuff. So last night I cleaned up the room a bit...and today, I am setting up my table, and pulling out all my craft things. The room has no windows..it is above the garage...but, I got a space heater and it warms up the entire room nicely...so I am hoping this will become my space. Wish me luck...:) Happy Crafting:)

My black yarn that I needed to finish my Son's Knitted Scarf finally came in, been waiting since the first part of December for it, so hopefully I will not be able to finish it.
Then back to my Homemade Valentine's I am half way finished with them, I am having so much fun making them and I am so happy I decided to join the swaps.
Welcome Back Erica, crafting will make you feel so much better and peaceful.
Have fun farmgirl sisters.
Farmgirl Hugs,
Deb

It's always a treat to visit here and see what you all are currently working on.

Today I am cleaning up in my bedroom closet (also known as the Craft Closet). Dh will be delighted he can walk in there again. Ha ha ha!

I am also knitting, crocheting, working on the garden mushrooms possibly, and making a list of items I need to complete more projects.

I recently finished another knitted dishcloth and my 10 yo's last flower sack towel.

I finished my S.C.R.A.P. ornaments. They have quilled holly leaves and berries in the center.

Kristina I love the mushrooms. I read how you made them and was delighted to know how it was done.

Right now I am working on a quilt for my bed that I have wanted to work on since last August. Well, lots of things got in the way but now is the time. I love the flour sack dishtowel. I make those whenever I get the time.

I have been busy embroidering my merit badges. I am thinking of making them into a quilt or a wall hanging, adding on as I recieve more badges.

I really want to try my hand at making this teapot cozy - I'll have to see how much time, energy & light I have when I'm all done my list for the day!
