Gift-making in 2021...TOPIC CLOSED TO COMMENTS

[Bailey4]

A very thoughtful FL FGM gifted this pattern to me back in 2019.  I had thought I'd get to it sooner but it is perfect for this summer birthday theme.  I'm still trying to decide what sea creatures to add but it fits with the island theme.

Ocean Play Tower

You are amazing----all the wonderful things you make for your family and charity!  I so enjoy seeing all of your projects.

I love the beach cover up!

You continually amaze me with your creativity!

Hey the tower turned out great.  You are doing an amazing job on your packages.

Love the tower, I have the island play set on my list of to dos for the youngest two grands... teh " coral" reef really adds to it

[Bailey4]

I wasn't sure exactly what to call it.  There is a round tall tank in the middle of the New England Aquarium that has always been my favorite part of the aquarium.  It is designed to be a coral reef and the levels build up from the ground to the top where you can look down. Here  This project made me think of a small crochet reef to add to the island.

I think its an excellent addition to the project, and coral reef fits it so well

Ken Tennis Outfit

DH pointed out he'd only have to wear white at Wimbledon but it's an old pattern and there aren't many modern ones out there, especially for Ken.  I'm not really up on tennis so I have no idea what they wear now.

My grandgirls aren't at Barbie level yet, but when they are I am saving your posts so I can remember... they are just precious

Bailey4,  your Ocean Play Tower is amazing! 

Afters "shawl season" (although there is another one on my hook) I'm looking for some new ideas for toys and I guess your set fits perfectly 😀  My nephew is one year old and it would be perfect gift for him. I think I may put some rattles inside the animals.

And here is the last of my shawls - that one is for my boss 😁 But she is also my friend 😀

[Tampa Doll]

Love everything I have been seeing here and Anna, I love the shawl.

Exquisite!!!!

[judianne]

This is 35 inches square and I'll be holding on to it in case I need a gift.

1st picture is outdoors.😁

Beautiful!

I wanted to start the Ocean Tower, but I only have sport weight yarn. So I ordered the proper yarn but as sometimes I am a hothead , I couldn't wait to start working. So here is the first toy - the crab - made with thinner yarn. Well, I'll have a baby crab and a mammy crab:)

[Tampa Doll]

Love the Afghan Judianne, it is so bright and pretty.

Thanks for the chuckle Apak.  Love the crab.

[Bailey4]

I made some of the animals with sport weight.  First they fit through the tower windows better.  Second they fit on my island play set better too.  I think you'll want heavier weight for the tower but I don't think you'll have an issue with the animals.
