More using of stash...


Saving of cash...
These are more stash busting animals I made. A camel and a giraffe.
They are from the same magazine as the alligator.
It can be seen here behind the camel and giraffe.
They turned out great and as you can see they are pretty big or should I say tall!




















This is the magazine the animal patterns have come from...I got the magazine at a flea market a few years ago.

Gator, stash buster...

This is the alligator I made trying to use up some of my stash....Since I joined the "Save Cash, Use Your Stash" group I will be making all sorts of things. I want to try to use as much of my stash as possible. With this gator I used up about $7 worth...not bad, it's a start!
He's 31" long and the pattern is from an old 1983 Christmas Knit & Crochet magazine.

Even more FO's

I've been testing again...the blue monkey is called Silly Monkey and I tested it for Melissa who has a site with the pattern for sale HERE
I did it in blue for a darling boy.




















The teapot cozy is a knit pattern that I tested for Andrea who has the pattern for sale at her etsy site HERE


















The stuffed Boston Terrier is what I came up with for the CAL at Crochetville.
I made a cat first and now the dog from the same CAL pattern the link is HERE The dog's name is Bear in honor of my darling Bear that is no longer with us.

More Kitties and a Gnome

Here are the latest items that I've been working on....
The Gnome is a pattern from one of the members of Happy Hookers. Thanks Ann for such a cute pattern. I really enjoyed making him!!

This Pink Camoflage kitty is another Amineko that I have named Eggroll...don't ask. It's a companion kitty for Ginger that now has a Marilyn Monroe white halter dress. I made the dress without a pattern and I think it turned out pretty well.


The little kitty is what I came up with for a CAL on Crochetville. The LINK is here. It's a UFO that we were all to come up with something different and since I had kitties on the brain I made mine to match Eggroll. I haven't named it yet.

Here comes Rascal Rabbit...

I just finished this Rabbit named Rascal.
It's an item that I was testing, it's still in the testing phase so there is no pattern available yet....He sure is a cute bunny and just in time for the upcoming Easter decorating that I'll be doing this sunday.
Sunday will be the day all of the St. Patty's decorations will be put away for another year and Easter 2007 decorating starts!


I finished the doily that I was testing and will post a picture of it as soon as it's dry and stretched into shape...It really needs to be blocked to show it's detail and beauty.

I will be starting a baby hat next....it's so cute and it has an Easter theme too...I'm looking forward to starting and finishing it...I know of a little guy it'll look too adorable on!
