Crafty!

Sure I'd alluded to my burgeoning crafty streak (much to Kristi's hypocritical alarm), but I'll bet you didn't see this coming!


Are those improvised french knots in a pre-printed cross stitch? Yes they are!


I got started out of a need for a hobby and have since finished a bib (not telling which of you pregger girls it's for!), monkey faces on a $1 Ikea hand towel, and I'm halfway through an oddly sized tablecloth. Dan found me patterns and a kit at www.sublimestitching.com. I'm taking requests...


Seriously, 4 pregger girls on my list...no telling who this is for...



Yes, I'm most proud of the very first thing I did. It's a banana. You didn't get that?

I LOVE THEM!
Move back soon and you can join my not for profit & major time-sucking (yet very low stress) crafty world!

Babe, I'm already in that crafty world--I'm just the Berlin branch! Did you look at Sublime Stitching's patterns? They've got some pretty cool ones.
