Wheel spinning

 Not much of the creative bent has been done over the past couple of days.  I did finish the little hat and diaper cover to go with the dress I showed you last time.


Sorry about the picture quality - once
more the sun isn't gracing us with its
presence.


- THIS is a very interesting article that is geared towards crocheters but pertains to all of us who are creative.

- Have a peek through the galleries of THIS artist.

- And THIS one as well!

  1. Some good thoughts about the value, dollar and otherwise, of handmade items. I like the suggestions of how to handle expectations of free items.

    1. I used to agree to do pretty much anything anybody asked me to and now I find myself resenting their expectations and most often manage to say 'no' without giving myself time to think about it. It gets easier to say no the more you do it.

    1. It was fun making a couple little outfits for our grandie....now just have to wait and see if they fit. I think, if anything, they should be just a little big.

  4. The flower on the hat just TOPS it off!

    1. I think our wee one will look cute in her new outfits - just remains to be seen if they'll fit. I suspect they should be a tad big just yet but who knows.

    1. It's for a sweet little girl so hopefully she'll like it (and even more importantly that it fits)
