So I may lead a very boring life but after the cleaning was done I entertained myself with some crocheting.
Since I sold all my dishcloths at the craft show I started working on replenishing that supply
Just as an experiment I thought I would do some round crocheted candle mats. These are about 9" across and are a combination of yarn and jute
Finally I have a project that's not quite finished yet. This is as far as I got. Can you tell what it's going to be?
When it's done it'll be a turkey. If you're curious and want to see a finished one and the tutorial you can visit Craft Passion
These turkeys are adorable, I can't wait to see YOURS! I love the beige and green candle mat, that one is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the sales, Ann! Good job!
ReplyDeleteI love the round mats and the flower shaped ones you are currently working on!

ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great weekend. Well except for having to mow the yard as hubby was in the pool. I'm just saying.
ReplyDeleteI love the turkeys. Too cute.
Have a fabulous day. My best to Duke. :)
As someone who can barely do a straightforward, uncomplicated scarf I am amazed at your work...You mix the colors so nice...
ReplyDeleteThat colorful turkey one is going to be fabulous I just know it!
ReplyDeleteI never learned to crochet -- and yes, I do think it's too late to do so. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your creations. Very pretty.
I guessed a turkey BEFORE I read your writing... That will be SO neat...
ReplyDeleteYou amaze me with your many talents... Gorgeous!!!
Hugs,

Love the colors in that one turkey tail!
ReplyDeleteThe turkeys are adorable and look like a lot of fun to make...sooooo cute.
ReplyDeleteAlas, it's getting worse--isn't it? Poor Duke and Wade.
ReplyDeleteI've been crocheting washcloths for Christmas gifts. My 12 year old saw my big pile and asked for a bunch for her hope chest as a birthday gift. How could I say no?

P.S. I'd love to see a tutorial telling how you made that pattern.
I am reading blogs backwards these days :/ You are very creative.
