I have since found a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J84jxmGMV5Y">video </a>that shows how this is done so my next one won't be jimmy-rigged! This yarn was Peaches & Cream but my next one that is just the diagonal washcloth shape is Cascade Sierra which I also like (and bought at Ewetopia). I will put it together during the class to show how to do it. I am also sure I will have other samples made up by then too (Aug 8)<br /><br /><div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqNHPLjS1gauM4ExtT5BWDpSvvsGC84LvZEVbKRsBU78JyHRqvH0RTIYOIgoFpnrKx2MzKPLPgHAyxVODgGmyBkTlTb5O3dlt7EG6MZuoz6y_NA1jvCZWHaiUhEStdWbKuRpRlarQAhZqq/s1600-h/IMG_6355.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353692125301237538" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqNHPLjS1gauM4ExtT5BWDpSvvsGC84LvZEVbKRsBU78JyHRqvH0RTIYOIgoFpnrKx2MzKPLPgHAyxVODgGmyBkTlTb5O3dlt7EG6MZuoz6y_NA1jvCZWHaiUhEStdWbKuRpRlarQAhZqq/s200/IMG_6355.JPG" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZCe86Lxwt6bLBx6L1ic1BE5Q5cKqW8TBecW0UycQ_QyQb5QfmPq948-0xTrVbR4eB_nZuCQysahRHT8Vmz18VUyIZuRC-Ganc7927S_2P3JTpRrRWOU4JbL_yEFRQuhPxBKCrm7LmYXet/s1600-h/IMG_6352.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353692132577303106" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZCe86Lxwt6bLBx6L1ic1BE5Q5cKqW8TBecW0UycQ_QyQb5QfmPq948-0xTrVbR4eB_nZuCQysahRHT8Vmz18VUyIZuRC-Ganc7927S_2P3JTpRrRWOU4JbL_yEFRQuhPxBKCrm7LmYXet/s200/IMG_6352.JPG" /></a><br /></div><div align="left">This little guy is just one of the cubes made from the <a href="http://littlegreen.typepad.com/romansock/2009/03/the-chicks-are-multiplying-free-pattern.html">Square Chicks </a>pattern from Roman sock.

The hubs and I were discussing my yarn access problem and he voluntarily gave up his dvd shelf for me (he wants another) and so off he went to empty it and I cleaned out the corner (from hell) to make room. The original idea was that I would put in pieces of wood to divide the shelves by creating an X effect but I couldn't wait for that so I started filling it up with the yarn I had in my bedroom:<br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh99VYoIaNcPKOTW4jdvCEhN7c_ppjezeuu7cHlHMAJfbuF3aU0Y9FUVAoOcFSuteFyw7RaolAqyTl4b8hZ_5hOeiZjA_6IYLpMrUrIlIlm_FVEO9LuS0ImqoNKZLGmefr7lBeT3sBgG5r1/s1600-h/IMG_6305.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 150px; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352157358711198594" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh99VYoIaNcPKOTW4jdvCEhN7c_ppjezeuu7cHlHMAJfbuF3aU0Y9FUVAoOcFSuteFyw7RaolAqyTl4b8hZ_5hOeiZjA_6IYLpMrUrIlIlm_FVEO9LuS0ImqoNKZLGmefr7lBeT3sBgG5r1/s200/IMG_6305.JPG" /></a></p><div>So I put all my yarn in order, neutral colors first, then your rainbow (mixing in pink with the reds) and then my stripes. If you look closely you will see that there is still room in all the cubes. I was so proud of all my beautiful yarn, it was all on display now and it was soft and pretty and colorful and .... ok getting sidetracked. It was like a mini yarn shop of my very own. I could choose any color to use and there it was to go grab! But wait, if memory serves me right, I think I have a few more skeins down in the basement... let me go get them and pop them onto the shelf.</div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirRiTn26p5DDKABcxUMvp2UjTgPAH24keKzjjpKljO7KODPVhb3vE3BMgnEkETXvmdENcBEbWkUVbWlD8JCvMCOAYWjIG38F-1C4x2HJQNfiV5NNi7y3wQf2abweohhlThnPrvPS9koNK0/s1600-h/IMG_6319.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 150px; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352157361778867954" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirRiTn26p5DDKABcxUMvp2UjTgPAH24keKzjjpKljO7KODPVhb3vE3BMgnEkETXvmdENcBEbWkUVbWlD8JCvMCOAYWjIG38F-1C4x2HJQNfiV5NNi7y3wQf2abweohhlThnPrvPS9koNK0/s200/IMG_6319.JPG" /></a></p><div>And so down stairs I went to get the few skeins I had left to add... and 5 duffel bags later.... Now my yarn shelf is so full that I am glad yarn is soft and squishy! I sure had to squish in a lot of yarn!! I found tubs I didn't know I had. The original plan was to use one cube for books and notions... guess that didn't work out!</div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqUNXh-YDM5MED5sjJwM4-RowzTIp6D25fKWwUX5Ob9nrb09C80CBxtVcUcQapGiv5bezYTsbtt1h0Wq_scMqxTdcNFZfArqIsW2EVXo03oeMWmA6hxUpBZ76qQv2J2edmW1e4sxqOkoYN/s1600-h/IMG_6362.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 150px; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352157360675929138" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqUNXh-YDM5MED5sjJwM4-RowzTIp6D25fKWwUX5Ob9nrb09C80CBxtVcUcQapGiv5bezYTsbtt1h0Wq_scMqxTdcNFZfArqIsW2EVXo03oeMWmA6hxUpBZ76qQv2J2edmW1e4sxqOkoYN/s200/IMG_6362.JPG" /></a></p><div>What colors do you think are my favorite?<br /></div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJDgySHzgwrLyoPEAYwbcuatSJX0mbyX-JFgfJlxmBTFmmqHO0h3rnGtKLxndTrUcjt4Ekekge3rTn56uUaThySvF2CgJO4YLPatzxpuR1HtEMUHdh2jRt6xYB6vN8_Kz87uYBRA9ObqY2/s1600-h/IMG_6363.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352157366640177554" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJDgySHzgwrLyoPEAYwbcuatSJX0mbyX-JFgfJlxmBTFmmqHO0h3rnGtKLxndTrUcjt4Ekekge3rTn56uUaThySvF2CgJO4YLPatzxpuR1HtEMUHdh2jRt6xYB6vN8_Kz87uYBRA9ObqY2/s200/IMG_6363.JPG" /></a></p><p align="left">Want to know another secret??

Today I had a class at <a href="http://www.ewetopia.net/">Ewetopia</a> where I was able to teach two wonderful students how to make the cutest frog and owl patterns by <a href="http://littlegreen.typepad.com/romansock/">Brigette Read </a>(with her permission of course). Both were previous students from the class where I taught my sheep pattern (to be posted soon). I enjoyed myself and hope they both did too. Over the course of the three hours we did get one compete frog done each and also a good start on an owl. I feel it was a success and I have been asked to come back again.<br /><br />Here is a picture of Cheryl's frog (taken on dd11's cellphone):<br /><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYfccFKgi1KiX-MWps83pOYpzlO7HnuUW860P4-1KZX78r_fElUbNWmrQAW5QpQi9_IHwrwRXuhWbNSxHEDX2qtFEYvGzXkVuq_ZfFucesClTNHmRvjWehyphenhyphenTwnxWrMvTCkZVXi8pQQnpZP/s1600-h/Cheryls+Frog.jpeg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347375990869173698" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 160px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYfccFKgi1KiX-MWps83pOYpzlO7HnuUW860P4-1KZX78r_fElUbNWmrQAW5QpQi9_IHwrwRXuhWbNSxHEDX2qtFEYvGzXkVuq_ZfFucesClTNHmRvjWehyphenhyphenTwnxWrMvTCkZVXi8pQQnpZP/s200/Cheryls+Frog.jpeg" border="0" /></a></p>I love this shop, honestly I feel so at home when I walk in and it is just a great atmosphere. Some lys I have been in have been intimidating or you feel like you shouldn't touch anything. Here they encourage touching, trying, they know what they are talking about and they just have people drop in to work on projects!! If I was to ever open a shop it would be just like this one! I wish it was closer but I will say it is my favorite hang-out!! The best part? That they really seem to encourage youth to get involved in knitting/crochet. I love that!!FieryMysthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16081526068954195403noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129780116430496141.post-9551305363630503242009-06-12T16:38:00.000-07:002009-06-12T16:43:56.752-07:00Secret ProjectAlrighty, I have come up with a plan, my creative juices are flowing mightily.

Tuesday Blahs...So today wasn't super great at that place that pays me to work there. Sometimes I just get so sick of all the petty, stupid drama. I am sure many of you know what I mean. I won't go into details but needless to say people need to get a life and look at life from different views!<br /><br><br />Oh who cares, no one peeking at this blog does. So I am looking for someone who can help me fix up this blog, help me figure out how to do a nice header, I have the basis of one but don't know photoshop well enough. Help me out on how to get buttons to my fave sites on here, tell me what is needed, what I should keep out, etc... JUST HELP PLZ!!!<br /><br><br />I currently am working on some new patterns, they are a surpise, I want to carry this further if I can and perhaps get into selling patterns and teaching more classes. I really enjoy this and would like to pursue this more. Hence why I cannot improve on the blog since my wee little mind only focuses on one creative thing at a time!!<br /><br><br />Garden pics from 6/3/09 (everything is twice that size now!):<br /><div align="center"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4D2TZjNit7OBDyz_y_s8hRyd7qtJzo7Zedqo3tw2ePKiBjHKetjpzyI8GV3pj7f2oQqnx5j0udbgIdJP77s-Ldl6cLBkmExsUwEzkpNzz_xhMdwnkCrQPAOYh7r5I-HDj9DPhrSAkFWXM/s1600-h/IMG_6182.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345812703502479746" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4D2TZjNit7OBDyz_y_s8hRyd7qtJzo7Zedqo3tw2ePKiBjHKetjpzyI8GV3pj7f2oQqnx5j0udbgIdJP77s-Ldl6cLBkmExsUwEzkpNzz_xhMdwnkCrQPAOYh7r5I-HDj9DPhrSAkFWXM/s200/IMG_6182.JPG" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzwG1AMlLsfWNG7h5uus8_W_MjfIjvqS9XMOAZP-yMijKjAnsYbTlzcL1OW8R05xkJumoDuSdyDbxqDDnMImdn9xtc5q4tJ-out4FRH4JpfwevDxenexc7Zic-xCR5u8pccw8-Vu_rbS6m/s1600-h/IMG_6190.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345812697655025906" style="WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzwG1AMlLsfWNG7h5uus8_W_MjfIjvqS9XMOAZP-yMijKjAnsYbTlzcL1OW8R05xkJumoDuSdyDbxqDDnMImdn9xtc5q4tJ-out4FRH4JpfwevDxenexc7Zic-xCR5u8pccw8-Vu_rbS6m/s200/IMG_6190.JPG" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglMF6_98CmsU4EzCXAA32niC4PefaGIpHtlYsC_dLXYnodhE271D1XUa8z1p1fnK4FyAB3uMGEe1nPEMjqwoluARb7lOwV4DxlwORToXfg81PBtkuhBHODFhmulHlaOnXA2zFEgFIgt2mK/s1600-h/IMG_6188.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345812697329214098" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglMF6_98CmsU4EzCXAA32niC4PefaGIpHtlYsC_dLXYnodhE271D1XUa8z1p1fnK4FyAB3uMGEe1nPEMjqwoluARb7lOwV4DxlwORToXfg81PBtkuhBHODFhmulHlaOnXA2zFEgFIgt2mK/s200/IMG_6188.JPG" border="0" /></a> </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM_-xPFF-9GhnJYrgyJOe_-QhyphenhyphenT4I6ziMPswEWtkyGUBSQmJN9-dSaIdKoxlG6uiPRt99xRN975Ng9M4xSXFodqG6Ei9pDudtP0VgNSk7FiGKy0JVF_gSXki2p2Im6djym_Y08hUzxbAMe/s1600-h/IMG_6186.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345812705950803378" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM_-xPFF-9GhnJYrgyJOe_-QhyphenhyphenT4I6ziMPswEWtkyGUBSQmJN9-dSaIdKoxlG6uiPRt99xRN975Ng9M4xSXFodqG6Ei9pDudtP0VgNSk7FiGKy0JVF_gSXki2p2Im6djym_Y08hUzxbAMe/s200/IMG_6186.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><br />These pics are of my Topsy Turvy Grape Tomato, yellow squash and the new (live) cucumber plants.

But this weekend I did it, I cleaned it out, I found unbelievable stuff and projects on the knitting needles (haven't knit in about 2 years) that I cannot even remember what I was making. I don't normally go by a pattern when I knit so it was all in my head and I feel like me and the girls might have a frogging party soon! Anyway, I had the girls bring all the yarn out into the living room to sort... ummmm... did ya'll know yarn breeds like bunnehs??? Where did it all come from and that wasn't my stash yarn, that is downstairs all nice and organized, this was just current project yarn. Wow!! It was exciting and scary. Hubby is going to help me find a place to access it better. Kids sorted by color and will be sorted by fiber when shelf is ready.

I gave hers to the <a href="http://www.ewetopia.net/">shop </a>where I am teaching classes so they could have some amigurumi to display (along with some sheep, owls and frogs). Now we won't even discuss the fact that she has already been given a <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fierymyst/3595630601/">Mario star</a>, <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fierymyst/3474257445/in/set-72157613460842391/">a purple cube</a>, a <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fierymyst/3595629497/">sheep</a>, <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fierymyst/3475075420/in/set-72157613460842391/">a snail</a>, <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/fierymyst/3475076586/">whale</a>, and the numerous projects I have made for her friends... nope, we won't discuss those projects. We will discuss the "When are you going to make me an octopus to replace the one you gave away Mom?" "Woe is me, I have no octopus" "I live an octopus free life, nobody loves me"... Ok so its not that bad, just the first quote is accurate (live my life and you will understand the others).<br />Well I started on the octopus and it was a nice lovely dark blue, but then I had a sprig of inspiration and asked her did she want an octopus or did she want a jellyfish!?! She chose jellyfish and I was excited to try the tentaclesą„¤ I just had an idea in my head and voila, we have a jellyfish. It has rainbow, pink, yellow, and lt blue tentacles. It was pretty fun to make and turned out like the visual in my head. I didn't write this one down but really it was easy to repeat. Best of all dd13 loves it. It was explained that this replaces the octopus but they forget easily at this age. I doubt I hear the end of it! </div><div align="center"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9KOoZF31qtBawl0eY3501QZPO5q9uPW8lAv1RAzOosUtbAZuhOdYo0XOWkSbRlDS01cp4sqbvehDeb0qrkoyam5nUKGGtl7gq0tY2aTiNcyQBplVw6iw-uSUl4sWM3bN_-iyTNj8iqC1u/s1600-h/IMG_6193.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343588793023244210" style="WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9KOoZF31qtBawl0eY3501QZPO5q9uPW8lAv1RAzOosUtbAZuhOdYo0XOWkSbRlDS01cp4sqbvehDeb0qrkoyam5nUKGGtl7gq0tY2aTiNcyQBplVw6iw-uSUl4sWM3bN_-iyTNj8iqC1u/s200/IMG_6193.JPG" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMpEwLvTKgDAVP9wKdPyEiJHjJk2eGDUyoDyjfYf0JHhwi1Ib7sbGP9Roho-of8J0OCoyabtNeUctr9PSpA6lS9JtxJQIDHWac2E-2PWPeV5GL5u8zSFzrdxwjiPOZZI0i_FeJN8AGaJ4V/s1600-h/IMG_6204.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343588796629563714" style="WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMpEwLvTKgDAVP9wKdPyEiJHjJk2eGDUyoDyjfYf0JHhwi1Ib7sbGP9Roho-of8J0OCoyabtNeUctr9PSpA6lS9JtxJQIDHWac2E-2PWPeV5GL5u8zSFzrdxwjiPOZZI0i_FeJN8AGaJ4V/s200/IMG_6204.JPG" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTnfpE3MZHj1GogD8fLWXit_MzgCWPuigSbBmiuS-pPbU6WF2jPbe1t0uEqKTC-lXfc6gtKptprQm96OArN_ADB0JBaSsmuYrWVpKrz8A2CZtgqqDnzuvmTREmebIfjDM-I75qnvfg54Jm/s1600-h/IMG_6194.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343588800781894674" style="WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTnfpE3MZHj1GogD8fLWXit_MzgCWPuigSbBmiuS-pPbU6WF2jPbe1t0uEqKTC-lXfc6gtKptprQm96OArN_ADB0JBaSsmuYrWVpKrz8A2CZtgqqDnzuvmTREmebIfjDM-I75qnvfg54Jm/s200/IMG_6194.JPG" border="0" /></a> </div>FieryMysthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16081526068954195403noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129780116430496141.post-47237028798044644082009-06-02T19:29:00.001-07:002009-06-04T17:47:19.664-07:00BlogPlease be patient as I am trying to learn how to do this blogging thing, I have discovered a world of widgets, skins, templates, fonts, colors and so much more.

This weekend sped by but I got a lot done! It was gorgeous out and so sunny. I planted my container garden and hope to have some nice veggies in month or so. Here is what I planted:<br /><br /><ul><li>Grape Tomatoes - <a href="http://www.topsygardening.com/">Topsy Turvy </a>(had to try it)</li><li>Cucumbers</li><li>Pole Beans</li><li>Yellow Squash</li><li>Zucchini</li><li>Baby Pumpkins (kids request) </li></ul><p>I also got the rest of my perennials planted and I hopefully should be done planting for the year. Oops, forgot that someone from work is supposed to bring me a couple of hostas and a Rose of Sharon bush ( I trim these into tree shapes). I will post the pics when I get time to upload.</p><div align="center">I also finished two more owlets and fixed my two froggies. I now have enough for the class in June. I wanted to showcase different sizes and colors for people to choose from. I even am in the process of felting one of the little frogs to see how it turns out.<br /><br />I also posted my pig pattern on <a href="http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=306491.0">Craftster.com</a> and seem to have gotten favorable responses so far. I also have it posted on <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/pig---a---ma--jig">ravelry.com</a>. I really need to get my sheep up and to decide if I want to give out my flamingo pattern for free or try to sell it. I wish I knew how to do a pdf better so it looked more professional. I could research it but that would take away from my crochet time!<br />My sheep (pattern I created):<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDJKzOBXtsi3C-JkQSO-8z_ipzQaQjmG-IV7IGpzc1UmBtnOmGccP6flGB58R0ZbPtfqCe-KeizjrpS4DoJkKNWs2rAX0E-YJYxFvI8w703O-S2S9wdZ88ezzUUEonMZSdPtr1Uv8eTfBJ/s1600-h/sheep+resized.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340684111907960002" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDJKzOBXtsi3C-JkQSO-8z_ipzQaQjmG-IV7IGpzc1UmBtnOmGccP6flGB58R0ZbPtfqCe-KeizjrpS4DoJkKNWs2rAX0E-YJYxFvI8w703O-S2S9wdZ88ezzUUEonMZSdPtr1Uv8eTfBJ/s200/sheep+resized.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWklcLnLceWOnQEVf4rspum6-6WpihE0XdZWUNvERECIe5aofDxXr0iYdZQEUEr0yBlxd_BQaKqYjpTPZa4kYRRmMoyvy9wqxBqCkExdfJa27HGTiSXTQNAVYX-UGBHHuS0BAzEMxFPUSt/s1600-h/IMG_0159.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340685121629115906" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWklcLnLceWOnQEVf4rspum6-6WpihE0XdZWUNvERECIe5aofDxXr0iYdZQEUEr0yBlxd_BQaKqYjpTPZa4kYRRmMoyvy9wqxBqCkExdfJa27HGTiSXTQNAVYX-UGBHHuS0BAzEMxFPUSt/s200/IMG_0159.JPG" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjog-DDdWxaHpHAe03Nm0NCfeEVhuSCYVkVyxo-F3d7JOqNjrchl4yx-j4BKWj81NME7jwQnbWKPMsui8BNMBtzW2Z1iGmtRvDyHl8QEtRMjUD3WtqGR0cFU74bKAkAEb6Y4Q6W3EgNWRYD/s1600-h/IMG_5688.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340685125112132162" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjog-DDdWxaHpHAe03Nm0NCfeEVhuSCYVkVyxo-F3d7JOqNjrchl4yx-j4BKWj81NME7jwQnbWKPMsui8BNMBtzW2Z1iGmtRvDyHl8QEtRMjUD3WtqGR0cFU74bKAkAEb6Y4Q6W3EgNWRYD/s200/IMG_5688.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />and the large flamingo and small flamingo:<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXrpJpRykOg-bt88KiSB1JQDJIvVtW5TqpKrSHrmxMmZI_s78m5WdCkaQQdXxjdgpSLnaP3j1TPzcyMBRKg_OaZgMlwFCix7jnHIxEINUDGpsOzFQmSbvLYYFxJugO2fiMhyphenhyphen5wszNnaa8e/s1600-h/IMG_5220.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340685494122877314" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXrpJpRykOg-bt88KiSB1JQDJIvVtW5TqpKrSHrmxMmZI_s78m5WdCkaQQdXxjdgpSLnaP3j1TPzcyMBRKg_OaZgMlwFCix7jnHIxEINUDGpsOzFQmSbvLYYFxJugO2fiMhyphenhyphen5wszNnaa8e/s200/IMG_5220.JPG" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhst7xbulTOLpuINE9MZ5qQY1U-fTT0KURnqbT6X8fTd6hcTFU6T8CzTG756XFW3XUB-IEeABx_X8nhH6MXRfXzOrMjP6O_Z49PoGbATVQoxrtG5w457Pkfcf1Bj9hJ8QGDrMEJiTMjnvob/s1600-h/IMG_5426.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340685517764719442" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhst7xbulTOLpuINE9MZ5qQY1U-fTT0KURnqbT6X8fTd6hcTFU6T8CzTG756XFW3XUB-IEeABx_X8nhH6MXRfXzOrMjP6O_Z49PoGbATVQoxrtG5w457Pkfcf1Bj9hJ8QGDrMEJiTMjnvob/s200/IMG_5426.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Now I am working on an awesome pattern by <a href="http://wolfdreamer-oth.blogspot.com/2009/05/mario-brothers-mushrooms.html">WolfDreamer</a>, it is Mario Bros.

Let me tell you, it will happen again! I was under the weather for a few days then it got busy after that. Starting on Friday (my 16th anniversary) to today it has been non-stop nonsense. What is really sad is not much of it is worth writing about.<br />Ok, one fun thing is that I got to upgrade to a new cell phone finally and this time I didn't go with the cheapy free phone, nope, I picked out a Blackberry Pearl Flip phone, this is a fun phone. Also with the company I am with I don't have to have the internet plan so really it was the same as one of the cheaper phones! I loooooove it!

That is all the time I have had so far. I am not sure if I mentioned it before but I am teaching a class on <a href="http://littlegreen.typepad.com/romansock/">Brigette Read</a>'s Owlets and Pincushion Frog in June. I am teaching at a super cute LYS called <a href="http://www.ewetopia.net/">Ewetopia</a>, it is about a 45 min drive for me but so worth it. The owners are such lovely people and they always have some great event going on. i wish they were closer so I could spend time there weekly. Any locals reading this should definitely pop in and visit the ladies there. I have taught a class on a Sheep I created once and I loved the experience.

My work had a huge party down in Cincy at the Reds game. We were in some fancy smancy suite and it was hot but somewhat shaded and just freakin' awesome. Didn't notice a game playing but was all you care to eat and open bar. I did get some crocheting done, finished my first washcloth (shock, I know) and did the body for another little owlet.<br /><br />Then there was running around to take back my rental car and pick up my car and zoom off to the soccer fields to watch dd13 play. (short story with car, car got hit, car went ouch, car took two weeks to heal, car home and much better now)<br /><br />Dd13 won soccer game (felt like 102 degrees out there) so now we are home and I am relaxed and chillin'.<br /><br />Did I mention that I am getting over a nasty cold? Oh, guess not since I just started this blog yesterday. Yup, caught a cold at the soccer tournaments this past weekend along with dd11, its a 4 day virus and really drags you down.

to my new blog. I am creating this because I need a place to work out patterns I am creating, a place to get my frustrations out and a place to send my students when they need help. If you are here visiting my blog then welcome and hang on as I try to learn new stuff all the time!<br /><br />About me: I am 37 and during the day I work at medical billing, at night I craft. I currently am crocheting, my interests are amigurumi (crochet animals), granny squares, and blankets. I love to watch youtube.com videos to learn new styles, stitches, and patterns. It is a wonderful resource and I have learned so much from watching the videos. I also know how to knit and love to felt and design purses. I have needle felted but decided I don't have a big talent for it, I only do it for applique to items. I am very interested in spinning but have tried to do a drop spindle and I don't have much patience for it. I just inherited a spinning wheel from a relative and would love to work on it once I can get it fixed up.<br /><br />My downfall, I tend to only be able to do one craft at a time. I tend to obsess over one thing until I get tired of it then I move on. I like to be creative and design my own patterns or improvise on others. I am not much of a rule follower so anything with an exact gauge is out!<br /><br />I just started teaching classes in Amigurumi at a local yarn store, Ewetopia and found out I love it! Thanks Lori for the opportunity!! I hope to be able to do more classes!<br /><br />Time is short for me due to two busy girls, my eldest plays Select Soccer and the youngest does Cheerleading. Both are time consuming but luckily my craft is portable!!<br /><br />Please feel free to comment and introduce yourself as I bumble along on this blog!FieryMysthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16081526068954195403noreply@blogger.com0
