Seven great things made by my crafty hands

  1. Sling-bags. Carrie has traveled the world with hers -- well at least to Africa and a classy Walmart. And better yet, I ripped off the pattern from Old Navy!
  2. Geekillows -- or at least that is what I would like to call them (geek+ pillow= geekillow!)-- for Torrey and Tony. Torrey's was this city landscape with a godzilla like monster eating a car embroidered on it. Tony's had this robot on it with the four commands stitched on it: Dance, Work, Sleep and Destroy.
  3. Magic wands for my first staff. Sure, they might have been a little weird, but I loved making them. Some were topped with a campfire or a palm tree.
  4. Crocheted blankets. I have made some different ones for other friends, but my favorite one was the Harry Potter one I made for D-Lo.
  5. Fake baby shower invite for my friend Adam. He neglected to tell me he was engaged and I got a wedding shower invite. So, I sent him a fake baby shower one titled: Guess who's knocked up?
  6. Redfish collage/painting for Adam. I took little pieces of red paper and collaged it into a fish and then painted words he had written onto it. It looks different at night and in day light. It was an unintentional by-product.
  7. Crochet hook case for my sister. It was green -- so I think she liked it.
