Thanks so much for donating this beauty to the raffle! It’s so intricate and gorgeous! And the koi is sooooo beautiful! I feel like you should make more of those… 
Aha, I see you caught the biscornu bug from your sister! This one is awesome; hooray for the Doctor!
Nice job fixing those pants! Sounds like the project was a big success! You have such a great variety of fun fabrics for your masks!
Whoops, looks like the family’s about to go watch some more streaming shows together, so I’ll catch up on the rest of the awesome posts here later. Meanwhile, there are two new prizes listed up in the raffle post, so check 'em out!

Excellent entry for the Text prompt! XD My friends have been texting and meme-ing about coffee a LOT lately! The detail on that walrus hoop is amazing! Great contrast with the colors, too. And you know I ADORE that bunting!! Ooh, let us know if that soap-saver helps save more soap in your household! XD I’d never seen a crochet plant holder before, but it’s every bit as cute as macrame! 
Your paper chain is so cheerful!! Great way to brighten up a room. Ahahaha, your cursing puffins cracked me up!! Somehow the burns seem extra harsh coming from such an unassuming-looking bird.
I totally agree that this counts. And it’s really beautiful! Thanks for sharing all your masterboards. I’m getting so much inspiration for when I finally start making my own! (After I finish a billion other things I’m working on…) Your vulture ATC is great!! That’s totally something I’d want in my as yet non-existent collection. Did you use an actual label maker for that text? It looks awesome!
Great job with the face mask! I’ve been SO happy to see how many people (including me!) are trying these for the first time, just to help out in this crisis! Also, that shark fabric is totally charming! The penguin design is darling. I look forward to seeing what you print with it!
These are really pretty and also snarky and fun! You’re really a master of that style!
This is soooo cute and charming! I’m sure lots of people are going to bid on it! Thank you!! And YES your granddaughter is totally adorable, and looks like she loves her pretty new headband!
Great job finding a new purpose for those lilies, which are gorgeous just the shape they are! The clutch is really elegant, and I love the butterfly applique! Oh my goodness, your obidome is GORGEOUS! I was just thinking how pretty it’d be with a lot of kimonos I’ve seen… it could take them to a whole new level! Your animated gifs are really cute!! Good job brushing up those animation skills!
Thanks! I was really torn between this one and Bits and Bobs last time, since they both totally apply to me just fine, and since B&B had so many members, I thought it could spare me to give this team a whirl this round! XD Also, where DO you find your fabrics?! I always love the stuff you find, but those two masks are particularly beautiful! I adore your new felt dolls. I’ve never made that style of felt craft, but it looks so cute and fun! I wonder if my flat felt skills are very transferable…
Welcome! You posted perfectly! Great colors on your ATCs, and I love the creativity of the sewn one!
I mean, how could you go wrong with this? You couldn’t, 'cause you’re a master of both the biscornu and the rainy Totoro. XD
Glad to see you posting more lately! I don’t know the specific character Bartleby, but that’s a darn cute cat. XD And how sweet of you to make sure Sparkles wasn’t lonely!!
Hooray! Welcome! We always love seeing new blood here. Just out of curiosity, how did you find us?

Yes, it does! I’ve been using the one that @LadybugsAndBees sent me in a swap awhile ago and I was going through one bar of soap for every 3 or 4 that dh was! You just put the soap in it, and it lathers and works as a bath cloth. Very nice!

Thanks, @roler! I have a label-maker somewhere, but can’t find it. Instead, I downloaded a font (called, appropriately enough, “Dymo”) and was able to print it out in different colors.

@roler I remembered that I subscribed to the forum Craftster but never been active there and I wanted to get more involved into it. So i have decided to check it few days ago to read that it is closed now and one comment had Lettuce Craft in their banner so I clicked on it and found you.

Love your mushrooms!!! I was wondering how you did that color scheme!!
Ugh. I was called into the office today, so I dropped by the hospital and dropped off about 7 more masks and forgot to take pictures. Oh well. I’m going to make more later. Besides, the last batch wasn’t fussy cut and that annoyed me.
@megwell – Welcome to the Games!!! And to team Running with Scissors! It looks like you had a lot of fun making ATCs! I loved watching the blitz. It was such a cool idea. My favorite card is the one with the fabric laced through it.
@storerboughtcreation – The biscornus are adorable! I love Totoro’s face front and center. And Hello Kitty! Purr-fect! She is so bright and happy. She’s my favorite and she is a cat.
@QueenHobo – Love the cat. I have a soft spot for black cats and just crafted one myself, but in a different medium. I love the big eyes on this doll. Gives him lots of personality. There is the unicorn we herard about and have been waiting to see! I am glad Sparkles got a friend. What is this ones name? She, or he, is lovely and looks completely huggable.
@roler – Way to go on the masks! I love that the crafting community can, and have been, doing so much to help out! Proud of you lady! I truly love that brooch you made. It is so darling. Absolutely amazing. A++++! I am sure your swap partner was ecstatic.

Project Name: Butterfly Obidome - Gold Variant
Brief Description: I’ve been making multiples of some of my newer pieces. I want to form a Worldbuilders team nearer to the end of the year for their big donation initiative, and need lottery prizes for those who donate to my team. Worldbuilders is a nerd oriented charity initiative started by author Patrick Rothfuss, and I’ve always wanted to work with them but didn’t think I’d have the time to produce more than maybe one or two items. Now that I’m stuck inside all the time, I’ve been able to work on a lot more art - so I figure if I make multiples at once it saves crafting time and also givens me extra items for Worldbuilders or maybe craft shows when they open back up again.
