Wow, it's crazy to think that all of this was on my original list, but none of it has been done I think I'll have to slow down on the swapping if I want to get this stuff done! I've also decided not to include swap items on this list unless they fulfill a specific item...it just distracts me from the fact that I haven't done anything on my own list.

Can anyone tell me how to get this into my signature without just pasting the whole URL? Like to make it just say "50 Projects in 2012" as a link and not have the URL next to it? Thanks

hgddm, to get what you want in your sig, put url=http://(the url of your shop)]50 in 2012 [/ url]. Just with a bracket at the beginning, and without the spaces and parentheses.

sarahj2001 Lovely, lovely yarn there.

QueenNinjaMonkey The soap snake cracks me up! How did you make it?

Kookaloo_Starr Your doll is great, love her expression.

Ffrogg526, can we assume you live in tank tops? Lol Pretty bottles too. I love turtles.

Thanks to everyone who wished me well with my hand splint. My hand feels so much better now than it has in years.

I've finished a pair of socks, a skirt and two more swap items recently. May not be able to get pictures for quite a while though.

oh rottenlittleboys!  Good news that your hand is feeling better!  It seems a lot of members are experiencing issues with shoulders, hands, and knees!

sarahj2001--I am in love with your colorful yarn!  The Electric Strawberry looks so fun!

Ffrogg562--your poly clay bottles are lovely!

Kookla-what a great job on your doll!  I love the expression on her face. And, all the added details--like the cute bracelets!

QNM--I know they must be simple to make, but I love the sponge thingies!

Which Michaels is moving, Ffrogg526?  Love your clay skills, those bottles are great!  I made my first doll earlier this year, too, Kookaloo_Starr.  I'll have to look for that book at my library, nice job.

Oh yes dear, we are getting the same weather just to the north of you. But most of Virginia lost power not last Friday but the Friday before that. I'm surprised more people have not been seen naked here. And I am not certain anyone would have had the energy to care if they saw them. 

Thanks AIMR, my hand problem stemmed from where I worked at JoAnn's for years.

I agree rottenlittleboys... working at a fabric store is death to ones hands.  2 years a a Fabricland more then 10 years ago and my hands have never been the same.  So be nice to your fabric store workers people.  It's a much harder job then it seems at first glance.

My heart goes out to everyone who is deep in this terrible weather.  I've never been fond of heat and this sounds like a nightmare.
