I'mparticipating in something called the sketch book project. check it out. pictures of my progress to follow...

started and finished projects

Welp, i made my prototype. see, its a tie that you can wear as a scarf. a little rough, but it works. i've got some more work to do with the zipper and with deciding weather to line it with some other fabric to make it more scarf-y. the basic idea seems to work out nicely and i'm happy about that. unfortunately, my neck is too big to have a pictiure of me wearing it. next time i'm going to measure.

In other news... i finally finished the leg warmers that i made for amelia!

they're really cute, i had exactly the right ammount of yarn which is crazy. they were started at a time when her legs were much skinnier. soon they'll be arm warmers. and then i guess they'll have to be passed on to her soon to be baby cousin!


so that's all for now. gotta go walk the porter. it's already 80 degrees outside!YES!

punctuation.

And by the way, i apologize for the lack of punctuation in that last post. its hard to type while holding a baby, much less feeding one.

Amelia and i went to my parent's house in arizona. we got back on tuesday. it was sunny and warm and fun and relaxing and mimi and i had a really good time being with family and friends. while i was there i started a new project using my dad's old ties... its still in the planning stage. and since i'm still unpacking i'm thinking i probably won't start working on it till next week... i'll post some pictures once i have a better idea of how i'm going to make my idea a reality.
