Ralph received the package I sent, so here's a quick lookie at what I made. I picked the theme of butterflies.

Ugh I totally messed up the increases on my frou frou I think I'm going to rip it out and start over.

In the mean time I've been a busy gal and knocked out this lot!

exchange bag


one skein scarf, made with yarn handdyed by redheadskydiver


sweet pea shawl, with the knit.1 butterfly shawl motifs attached on (I gave up with that other shawl, the construction was so confusing!)


What's everyone else up to? Looking forward to seeing some pretty frou frous after the disappointment of screwing mine up!

I received from Ralph! My collections are naughty nurses, bunnies and cherries/strawberries and she crafted for all three of them!

My main item was this wonderful handmade journal, check out the cute paper and the xray pin-up image is just the best thing ever!







I also got this cute cherry charm, yep I'll probably put it on my phone
And handcarved and dyed chew toys for pet bunnies. Sadly they love 'em and there are only four of them left intact right now!



And some pics of bunnies enjoying the toys:

Thank you for being so thoughtful, I love it all. (Haven't written in the journal yet though, saving it for something special )

Sorry I am so late to post pics but here is the amazing solid perfume kit that maremare sent me. It is so detailed and I can't wait to try it out.



There's bases, scents, containers, and loads of other goodies. Thanks again

I always save stamps from the mail we get at work, some of them have great crafty potential...glad to hear you like them


here's pictures of my 3 envelopes, thanks to all of my amazing partners there was a huge variety of things I was so excited going through it all and picking which things I will use first!

from mamasmurf:


I especially loved the bunny diecuts(wow!) and the beautiful green patterned paper.


from taunya1978:


Love the gorgeous notecards and I have just started cross stitching so the bright floss is perfect.


from squirrelgirl:



Wow, loads and loads of paper and stickers, here is my favourite

I found the subversive cross stitch website by clicking a link on craftster and I am so glad I came across it. Yes it's immature but the kits really made me smile. I decided to get the cancer one as I lost both my grandparents earlier this year to cancer, and my mum's currently in hospital for her second lot of treatment so I am trying to work out my frustrations in a creative way...






This is the first cross stitch project I've done since in about 17 years, and I really like how it turned out. The frame is one I decorated a few months back. It was all gold, so I added some brown paint and rubbed it down a bit, then hot glued the flowers on. I really enjoyed stitching this and I am planning to make some more things from the book soon.

more than 20 balls of yarn?! that is a lot 

I thought I'd share some other recent FOs, I forgot to post the photos before.

The guitar strap/belt/scarf. In one colour instead of stripes, and I used a chunky weight yarn. I didn't do the self fringing thing, I added it after. (Hate joining yarn!)
   
   Better colours in this pic:

And this is the stripey baby blanket without the braided edging.
   
   

I started my froufrou, here's how it's coming along.

here's what came in the post for me thins morning: rabbit jewellery and a rabbit stuffie from called2otherskys.

The earrings and bracelet are matching and so cute they will go with everything I don't want to take them off! And c2os made a little pouch for them as well.

couldn't get a better close up, please post if you have a better shot.


Check out this little fellow, rather charming don't you think?
His back is made from the same silky cherry print fabric as the pouch above so he's nice and soft.


Thanks you are a real sweetie, I'm glad you liked making them because I'm sure going to enjoy using and admiring it all!

hi everyone, I thought it was about time I joined this crochet along. I love the book and there are so many great patterns to choose from.

Here's some of the things I've made so far this year.

corset belt


spring in winter hat


blanket squares based on colour bar blanket pattern


cold shoulders capelet



and my latest: Knot Ugly shrug and modified one skein scarf. http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=195305.msg2061493#msg2061493


My earflap hat is very close to being finished, just have to sew the buttons on now. I think the next one I'm going to try will be the Sweet Pea shawl or the FrouFrou cardigan, haven't decided yet.
