Tooth Fairy










- Kenley, your tooth fairy pillow is complete.
Hope you don't loose any teeth until you are a bit older, but your pillow is ready. When you loose a tooth you can out it in the tooth pocket and hopefully get lots of money for it.

Walker bag

Wondering if this will post on both blogs.
Guess I will find out.

Patty a friend from church as me to make her something for her mothers walker to help carry the things she will need when she gets her knee replacement later this month.

So yesterday, I proceed to the shed and dug around in my things out there. i knew I had some material out there from a tote bag that I had made. Hoping ti was enough...nope, but wait there is this orange material that I made those Halloween aprons for , I shall make it reversable. She can put either side out for the public to see or she can display the butterflys. Hope she will soon be up and flying like the butterflies not letting this knee replacement get her down for long!
The pictures do not do this justice! I do love those butterflies!

Fingerless gloves


Not good, not good. If you are going to ask me to make something and I put in two days of work and it cost me $16.54 cents for materials, don't tell my husband that is too much. I could have purchased a big skein of yarn of each color and it would have cost much more. Cost of materials x3 is not much for all the work that I put into these. I am ready to take them, out and literly burn them..I want them out of my house. And for goodness sake don't you ever ask me to make anything else for you. Detailed work on these is time consuming, each one of those tails had to be hidden on the inside, and had I put on colored buttons like the pattern showed, it would have been much more. Buttons are not cheap! Enough of vent. Lesson learned make them pay up front for things! And make the price high, especially if it is a project you really are not crazy about doing!

They are still on my dining room table. They will be the only pair like this that I will ever do! Unless someone wants to pay 80 to 100 dollars for a pair. Then I might consider it, and with money up front!
The pattern is written in UK terms and had to be translated to US crochet terms too.
From the very start to the very finish was a project that simply too way too much time! Detail work was unreal.and to make sure the stripes lined up when you finished and put the buttons on? Well I am a perfectionist and it simply had to match! And yes there are SEVEN buttons on each one! Hahahaha
Never again!

Keto's funny sock/slippers

Started these men slippers on Sunday. Twenty hours later I have completed them. Sure hope my former fellow employee will enjoy them. I will let him have them at a reduced price, but it I ever have to do them again they will be $80 for the set. This was a lot of work!
