.... How on earth are you all so fast. I think I have been working on this project FOREVER!

 

Your house is probably much cleaner than mine.

Ok, my list is changing ... again lol.

I was at Publix yesterday and found a John Wayne grilling cookbook. (publix has Everything).

 

My brother likes to cook - Mom gave those genes to him not me- and John Wayne is a hero of his.

 

So, instead of slippers he will get the John Wayne book and some potholder mitts. Off to search for a pattern!

That is such a cool idea.  He is going to love that.

Boy, you nailed me with that one. I can always dust and sweep tomorrow, but I really need to crochet right now!

Second mask done. Really, it is the second one and not another picture of the first

You know, if there's ever a craft fair near you, I can see these being hot sellers. They're so different, how could anyone pass them up!

[Tampa Doll]

They are so cool.  I know if I saw one, I would buy it.  If not for me, for a friend.

[Tampa Doll]

I am all ready for the game tonight.  Got my Hockey Damn it doll today.

 

He has a card telling me how to use him and the gif should make you chuckle.  It is what he will look like after the game.

 

He even has Ice skates on.  He will come out again during football season.

 

It is so cool and I love it.

 

Before and after the game

[greyhoundgrandma]

He's cute!

[judianne]

Wow....that is awesome!!

[ratdog]

Started the clock face. It will have grape motif to represent Martha's Vineyard

[VikingRunnerGirl]

The card on the dammit doll cracks me up! That is an excellent idea. Love the pictures of the stuff that's been finished; I'm with Tribble on being amazed at how fast y'all work! I'm still working on... everything I was working on before.

 

I did work some more on my baby blanket recently, but most of my progress lately has been on squares for the board and my rainbow-ghan that will be for us! Ok, I said the word "out" and the dog got all excited, so I'm taking her out now. Poor thing.

[ratdog]

It will be a clock face when i am done.

[Tampa Doll]

That is really pretty.  Can't wait to see it as a clock.

[ratdog]

Thank you Mary Jo. I need to make more leaves.

I am just making it up as i go along.

[VikingRunnerGirl]

I can't wait to see it too; I would never in a million years have thought of a crocheted clock face. You come up with the best ideas!

[ratdog]

I stole the idea for a clock face from another thread on the ville.

[ratdog]

Clock done. I hope it works!

[Tampa Doll]

That is really pretty.  I will keep my fingers crossed.

I doubt that I am a terrible house cleaner.... Little Tribble looked at his room tonight shook his head and said shoo... Someone needs to clean my room. I think he forgets he is capable himself...

Potholder mitts sound awesome!

I love these masks! They are adorable

How pretty is that! Turned out great!

 

Got little Tribbles TNT pillow done. Looks better stuffed but don't have that picture on my tablet.

 

His creepers turned out cute. He says one is the daddy creeper and one is the baby creeper

 

 

He also hates holding cold cans so I made him a cozy

 

I think I may be feeding his Minecraft obsession a little much!

[ratdog]

The minecraft gear is awesome!

[Tampa Doll]

I love the minecraft.  His creepers are adorable.  Love the TNT pillow and the can holder.

[yarnscrapper]

ratdog and tribble...LOVE THEM!!!  Very pretty clock and fun minecraft gear!!

[judianne]

Clock done. I hope it works!

Awesome! 

...does it work?

[Tampa Doll]

Finally finished the potluck holder.  I used wood buttons, instead of the orange ones they recommended.  This was fun to make and it is pretty.  I have a 14X9 glass pan in it upside down, so it would look full.
