Thought I would just post some pictures of stuff from my craft room..... but then I realized I only have one picture from the craft room in this post. The rest are pictures of items I made when I did not have a craft room! So they are from my kitchen table and family room easy chair!
This is a ribbon board which I made for my oldest daughter and her husband this past Christmas. It is hanging in their living room with wedding pictures all over it.... I love that it is getting put to good use!
I started this a few years ago - I think I got this pattern from a book that I checked out from the library as I do not find it in my stash of quilting books.... it is called crazy log cabin. I have four completed 12 x 12 blocks. Now that I do have a craft room with my sewing machine out at all times.... this is on my list to finish this year. It may end up as a Christmas present for my son.
This is a "Day of the Dead" doll I made for my sister for Halloween... it is her favorite holiday!
This is a crocheted wire and bead bracelet I made for my mom for her birthday a couple of years ago. I really love working with wire and this was a lot of fun.
Finally...... I wanted share something from some very special ladies:
I am honored to belong to a wonderful group of women who crochet and knit prayer shawls, youth afghans, baby afghans and winter hats. We started our group a few years ago at our church just stitching Prayer Shawls...... but then we expanded with the hats for our Food Pantry and then afghans for a battered women's and children shelter.... The above picture is this year's batch for the shelter. Aren't these just beautiful?
This is why I craft......
So much variety!! I love all the ways you dabble in different media, and you're so talented in all of them! I have to comment on that crazy log-cabin design, it *seems* like it would be harder than a regular log cabin - I can't imagine being able to put that together. Kudos to you!! :-D You are an inspiration!
