WIPs

WIP = Work in Progress.

I have a lot of them. I also suck at taking pictures before sending off my projects! I finished the package for the Mother's Day Swap and sent it. However, I did not take a picture of the finished cross-stitch towel because I finished it at 3am and left it for my mother to take with her to work to mail it off at 7am while I was sleeping soundly in my bed. I received pictures that she sent of the towel and here it is:



I ended up getting lots of stuff done today, I sent out a B crochet hook and three greeting cards. I also sent out a Ravenclaw beanie for a 2 year old today. As I previously mentioned, I suck at taking pictures before sending out my projects, so here's a Gryffindor version of what I sent out today:
The one I sent out looks the same, just grey and blue
So that's what got sent out today... As far as works in progress and what I've promised people... And will probably be updating to bitch about because I'm pregnant and cranky, here's what I have going on (these pictures are from other people's projects, I did not make them nor take credit for them):

Nintendo messenger bag for another swap
project bags: pink & black / green & blue



















This is the big monster of them all. In this picture, the granny squares are knitted, where as I will be crocheting my granny squares. All 252 of them. I think this is a fair statement of how much I like my boyfriend, even though he's the one who knocked me up and got me all cranky in the first place. 

Although, I would like to take just a second to explain that I am VERY excited and happy to be a mommy soon. It was a surprise for sure, but by NO means an accident. The father and I are both excited and we can't wait. I might talk a lot about how I'm cranky and bitchy and hurting, but I'm also incredibly blessed, excited and very happy. 

The only other thing on my plate at this moment is making a Birthday card and sending that off (should be quick though.) I -WILL- get pictures this time, even if I have to make a new envelop after I rip the first one open because I forgot! And I have a bookworm swap going on which will include the Nintendo backpack. I'm thinking of putting together a spoof CD of Lord of the Rings songs (Such as "Frodo, Don't Wear The Ring" by Flight of the Conchords), a bracelet I'm going to make that says "42 is the meaning to life," and a few unicorn items. I'm still brainstorming.

ALSO (this is important): I started an Etsy shop. I have no idea how it will pan out and I only have one item for sale (amigurumi eeyore) to see if it's even worth having a shop. Of course once I type that and go to my shop to grab a link, someone's already favorited my item. This is GOOD! 


So yes. Go check that out. I'm thinking of adding a LOT more items once I've decided I like it.

Stay tuned! I don't know what's next, but I'm sure it will be interesting!!
