WIP Wednesday

There have some changes in my life - and I have had some extra time to crochet - which has made me VERY happy!!! I made this little Swiss cake roll 

which I'm going to give as a gift to someone special who LOVES swiss cake rolls. I think I will make it a little longer and maybe not so "puffy". I'm very excited to make a full box of them!

I have been wanting to make these cute little dum-dum flowers some time now.

 I just never had a reason - I found a reason, and then changed my mind. So, I think that I will make a few little "bouquets" to give to some special friends.

 

And, I am slowly working on this afghan for my nephew's baby this is due in February. I have some time... so, I am not trying to rush. 

I've also been working on a birthday present for a family member - but, I can't share it here - (too many eyes!)

WIP Wednesday

I have been working on this Crochet-A-Long

 It's going to last 4 weeks - and it's a mystery.  It's called the

SOY Challenge - AUGUST 2015 Crochet-a-Long

 Soy stands for "Scraps Of Yarn"  And the whole point of the challenge is to use up all your extra yarn.  And, I really need to do that.

 The squares above were from the 1st week - these 2 swirly ones were my favorite.

 The 2 above are from the second week.  I will need to make 9 of these.

This is the second "project" I have been working on. 

This is also a Crochet-A-Long".  It is a Dollhouse Playbook. Directions for each page are released once a week - and it lasts for 8 weeks.

 I still haven't added the little extras, or secured it to the page.

Hopefully next Wednesday, I will have completely finished this one and page two.

WIP Wednesday

I thought it would be fun to show you my WIP (work in progress) for this last week.

This is a cute little project that is I just started yesterday.  It is for a special little girl in my life. 

This is a CAL - and it is going to take about 8 weeks. By next Wednesday, I should have a better picture for you, and a link to the CAL.

(I want my family to know.... yes, this was used with "stash" yarn!

This picture is little abstract... it is a Christmas present - and I don't want to show the full item- but, it's finished.... 

(1 down, 979 left to go.....hahaha)

This is my WIP that I have in my "back pocket". When I NEED something to work on, I have it ready to go. It has been a WIP for a long time, but I love just picking it up between the other projects. 

This is going to be a pillow to go along with:

The one I'm working on will be bigger, and both sides will look like this.

Here's the blog post for the pillow I already finished.
