It’s so great to see what everyone is up to 
I haven’t been super creative this month, I think most of my entries are going to be food related.
Prompt: February Battle - Reduce

Project Name: Random yummy for my tummy

Brief Description:
In an effort to reduce a pile of vegetables before they go bad, and reduce my hunger, I mixed up this lunch. I browsed a few recipes but ended up doing my own thing. It has eggplant, zucchini, sweet potato, onion, tomato puree and Israeli couscous. Topped with Parmesan, and enjoyed in the afternoon sun.

Project Name: Acrylic Pouring
Project Link: N/A
Brief Description: So, finally got to try acrylic pouring! I’m so cheap, though, I didn’t want to spend a ton of money on canvases that I knew I would ruin at least most of, so… I had over 100 cardboard inserts from fat quarters from when I made the patchwork rainbow skirts, I decided to use those! And while a lot of them didn’t turn out, some of them did, and we learned a lot to put into Acrylic Pouring Night 2! (the vase and whatnot were my friend’s, who kindly let me come over and slop paint all over her house… sorry the photos aren’t the best, it was a long night full of wine and fun…)

@Lynx The basket you made is a great way to use up yarn! Not only are you using what you already have, you’re making a great way to store items. I love it!
@craftADDchick I like your granny blanket, and I’m so happy you finished it! Weaving in ends is my least favorite task. I made a Spongebob blanket 4 years ago, and it took me over 8 hours to weave in the ends (even with help from my sister!). I feel your pain.
@gozer I love the dino bag. It’s perfect and the person you’re sending it to will be very happy with it!
@Bunny1kenobi The cards you made are so cute! I absolutely love the first blurred item in your post. Side 1 is my favorite. Your project dump is full of so many cute things, and looking at all of the items you made had me smiling. I don’t want to comment more because I don’t want to ruin your swap surprises 
@Tanath Your food posts had me drooling. The bento boxes look delicious and adorable
@Smeddley I’ve seen so many videos of acrylic pouring, and it looks so fun (and messy!). I love all of the colors you chose. 
@ezrib Your suncatcher is adorable, and I love the idea of having rainbows dancing around the room. I bet it helps improve your day

I really, really used to hate weaving in the ends and I would only do projects with solid colors or very limited color changes. Now, I find it a little relaxing, actually. I tend to weave my ends in pretty thoroughly, so it takes me a little longer than it probably should.
