Is anyone up for some more of this? The last round I participated in was back in 2009 and I don't know if there have been more since then. Everyone makes four 8 inch squares out of worsted acrylic yarn (in their partner's color preferences) and swaps. Eventually we all have an awesome blanket/throw/whatever that was created by people from all around the world! The blanket pictured is the one that I eventually put together, all I did was crochet them together

Lets get this going again! I believe there was one round a month. Four 8 inch squares can be made in no time!

So I saw all the amazing felt books that you craftsters had created and knew that was what I wanted to make for my niece's first christmas.

Here's what I came up with:

Front cover        L                    A                   C
             

E                    Y                    End
      


I had so much fun making this!

I finally received my mug rug all the way from the Isle of Man the other day! Here is what WhiteSheep made for me!

Sorry the pics are bad quality. Its been so dreary here lately.
Thank you so much WhiteSheep! It has been getting lots of use

Here are my goodies from ceemonster!

First up: Dragonglass! I'll be keeping this on me juuuust in case I run into some Others. (I did tuck the loose ends in after taking the pic)


The Main Event: A beautiful chainmaile necklace!


Up close to show the Arya-inspired charms.


Eee! Love them so much. I don't know why I notice this, but the weight of the necklace is perfect, haha.

Thank you soooo much ceemonster!

So, I checked and this was brought up years ago without much interest. I just recently found all the Xanth books at the library book sale so I'm re-reading them. Would anyone be interested in a Xanth swap? Puns galore! Maybe we could to a One Tiny Thing or a ATC swap?

So, I recently took up straight razor shaving and I needed some better shaving cream. Brambleberry to the rescue! I ordered some of their shaving M&P soap and bentonite clay. They also included some vanilla oak FO as a sample. I'm in love with the smell of it. It definitely went into the soap, haha! I would recommend their shaving base, its great! Super smooth and no irritation!!!

Here's my finished product:


All lathered up:

Here's another lovely addition to my nature theme from pollyprissypants!

Dusk


No scan can really show the neat shimmer this card has. She said it was painted with watercolors... I need some shimmery watercolors now!!

Here's a lovely card to add to my spectrum theme: Purple from JillHogan



Some great textures going on here. Sadly, my scanner smooshed the floof part. So just imagine that its all soft and fuzzy

Got 2 cards from Margiepoo today!

Here's the one from my spectrum theme.


And a lovely extra!


Thanks so much!

Lookit the fantastic Nature card that blupaisan made for me!



Everything on it is real! And it smells good too, haha! I feel a little sad for the bumblebee but, I'm glad he gets to live on as art.
