What fun team names for the season! I am torn between two of them. But, I’m going to take a bit of time tonight to lay out my craft tracking document, and see what I can get made this weekend
I am also torn between two teams. I think I know which one I’m joining, but we’ll see! I was up until 4am finishing a project I wanted to post for last season, but I couldn’t finish in time. I’ll have to choose and then post soon
Prompt: Research Project Team: Don’t Stop Beleafing Project Name: Nya Mosaic blanket Project Link:Nya mosaic rainbow blanket Brief Description: I tried so hard to finish this last night, but I didn’t finish until 4am. This took me about 36 hours Project Photo(s):
@storerboughtcreation that blanket is absolutely amazing. It looks like it was a lot of work. I love the way the colors flow into each other and the colors you chose.
Prompt: October - Battle - Falling Leaves Team: Don’t Stop Beleafing Project Name: Speedy little snail Project Link:Shelma the Pumpkin Snail Brief Description: I made this up in just over an hour. It was a fun and easy pattern. It has leaves on the pumpkin, and I can also picture little Shelma snailing her way through the fall leaves covering a garden plot. Project Photo(s):
Prompt: Free Range #1 Team: Don’t Stop Beleafing Project Name: Halloween Wreath Project Link:Halloween Wreath Brief Description: I bought this kit in 2014 and finally pulled out the rest of the supplies to make it (I needed ink, glue, stamps). I didn’t have the stamp set that coordinated with the wreath, so I originally used an alphabet set to stamp the “Trick or Treat”, but ended up just printing it on my printer after I glued it on wrong and couldn’t save it. And, I went with a Free Range prompt because I wanted to make sure I got it posted.
She is 5.5” from base to top of hat, and 4 inches from front to the tip of the tail. I used worsted weight yarn and a G hook. I hope you make yours! I want to see it!
The only change I made was to the purple band on the hat. I surface slip stitched around instead of making a separate chain and sewing on.
Prompt: Free Range 1
Team: (So corn-fused)
Project Name: Wire corner spider web
Project Link:Wire Spider Web Corner
Brief Description: I made this fun wire web to sit in the frame between our dining room & living room. I also made beaded “Spinderella” to sit in there
Prompt: October- Mulled Cider
Team: (Corn you feel the love tonight)
Project Name: Applecider donut icecream sandwiches
Brief Description: Homemade apple cider donuts cut in half with homemade vanilla icecream, next time I think I’d add chunks of cooked apple & caramel for more of a sundae feel. so good!
