I've Made Friday Week 44

I can't believe it's the 1st of Feb!

I hope you all had a good January

and are looking forward to February.

Yes I'm still making Penguins!

This is what they should hopefully look like.

My order for safety eyes didn't turn

up so it's put me behind.

Fingers crossed I get them all finished soon!

My snow dream set is finished.

I've designed:

Hat

Flower

Cowl

Button Scarf

& Fingerless Gloves

I've not finished my book yet

so you'll have to wait a bit longer for my review.

Now  it's time to show off what you've been making

this week.

please feel free to link up:

What You Doing Wednesday Week 39

I hope you are all having a good week

and are all ready for Christmas.

I'm doing things a bit different this week.

I'm concentrating on getting all my 

things finished for Christmas

so I have scheduled this post in advance.

As it's in advance I can't show you what I am making.

But what I can show you is the what patterns I'm using to make the

things I'm making.

Victorian Texting Gloves:

I love this free pattern!

I am making some for hubby's mum

my mum and hubby's nana.

I made some for myself in the past

and I love them so much I'm making them for others.

Morris the mouse is a fantastic 

free pattern.

I'm making this one for Lydia the doll.

Little Red has decided that each of the dolls

need a christmas present under the tree as well.

Now it's your turn to share what you are doing.

It doesn't have to be crochet, anything you are making

is perfect.

What You Doing Wednesday Week 33

Congratulations to Barack Obama!

Thank you to everyone for all your kind words.

I've calmed down now.

I'm afraid we didn't manage to sort things out.

It ended up with me being blamed for not telling anyone

and then therefore it's my fault.

My brothr was wrapped up with the day so he couldn't be expected

to remember to have me on a photo.

Regarding the other stuff it has been explained

away but a lot of it still hasn't been answered.

I don't like fighting so I'm leaving it

that we aren't talking.

I wish it hadn't turned out this way!

It did so I'm just going to get on with life.

Here are the pictures below.

I'm afraid I haven't got any of me in my full outfit

but I've got some I took whilst we were getting ready.

Wedding Photo's

 Little Redd wanted to take a picture of mummy and daddy dancing.

I had heels on during the wedding but at this point I was in too much

pain to carry on wearing them.

Now it's your turn to share what you are doing.

is perfect.

FO Friday

Good Morning everyone!

Hope you are having a good FO Friday!

I haven't done a negative & positive thought lately

Negative: Has to be my CFS

Positive: it's giving me time to come up with new ideas

I'm learning other crafts

I've had the time to enter loads of giveaways :-)

I haven't got many FO's today but I do have one;-)

I kept quiet about this one because I didn't know how it would turn out

I was finding it difficult to concentrate so there are a few mistakes but I 

love them. 

I got the pattern from:

http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/girls-victorian-texting-gloves

I have to confess I did change the pattern slightly.

I only did 21 rows for the ribbing section

I then altered the top and bottom section to increase to the amount required

I also increased the shell to 5dc's

Apart from that I followed the pattern ;-)

I can't believe with all the changes I still managed to get them looking the same

I would recommend this pattern (even without the changes)

The pattern is easy to follow and the instructions are clear.

I hope you like my FO

Go on over and see what other people are making:
