One last Pic for the Day

I had to take the time to add this one last picture today. This is my protage hard at work.

Marcia's skirt

Here's a really bad picture of the skirt I designed for my MIL's upcoming birthday. My mom modeled it for me over her baggy, ugly jeans (there's a whole thing between mom and I and that's just an inside joke, i guess). I love you mom! I swear the shaping looks better than that. I'll have to post a better picture later, but for now, it's the best I can do.

Tiered Dress

I finally got pictures to post of the Tiered dress I designed for my daughter for Easter, so here it is. I'll type up the pattern soon (not enough hours in the day, but at least I wrote it out as I went) and get it tested. When I get my etsy shop up and running, I'll add a link here for anyone who is interested. I took a look at her in the dress and went "It needs a hat!" so I'm hard at work on one, for some reason I'm missing some stitches so I have to figure out where I messed up. Grr.

Finished work

Yeah! I finally finished typing up the pattern for my new skirt, it's one I made for my MIL for her upcoming birthday. Now I just need to get a picture so I can get it tested. Will post the pic here too. I also finished my daughter's easter dress. Now I just have to sew on buttons and add the ribbon. Too easy. Need to get pics of it also. I'm so excited. Perhaps I'll finally get somewhat caught up. I've made some headway on the toddler dresses I'm working on, then I have to figure out the matching hats. It's the sewing on those sets that is going to kill me. Stupid sewing machine.

Welcome to my blog! I decided to stop my lurking and start my own crochet blog. I'm not in the dark ages, I swear. I do have a LiveJournal, but it's of the randomness variety. This is my place for my rants, raves and other crochet related fun. As soon as I get a chance, I will post pictures of my finished project - a baby hat and cape and my almost finished project, a skirt. Stay tuned!
