Right?! ![]()
I am having some medical issues with my shoulder and things have been an absolute headache for me. I am not going to be able to do STS this year.
If I asked for anything and you made it, message me and we can work out a Private Swap. Sorry. I am so disappointed.
Sending you gentle hugs! I know all about health crap keeping you from doing the crafting you want. I hope it settles down soon for you.
Hugs and I hope your shoulder gets better soon. You’ll be missed but your health and happiness are soooooooo important! I’m positive upper management (aka, your kitties) would insist you rest so you can properly pamper them.
Oh no! I hope you feel better soon. We’ll miss you on STS.
awww, that is sad –
hope you can get a handle on what will improve the shoulder!

I can imagine how frustrated you are. I hope you’ll be able to get the care you need. We will miss you this year but I’m sure you’ll be back! Above all, PLEASE take care of you. ![]()
We’ll miss you, but you gotta take care of yourself first.
Oh no, I’m sorry you’re having shoulder issues.
I hope the recovery process goes smoothly. ![]()
@Manders finally finished Roger. I had to hunt down a pattern for the hat that fit. The first one was too small and I have to adjust to fit him. I’m pretty happy how he turned out.
You know how wee baby snakes try to look menacing but they’re adorable? I’m getting that vibe from him. He’s really trying, but, my guy, you are CUTE.
He is perfect! ![]()
Arrrrgh, he is an adorable little buckaneer!
It’s hard to look TOO fierce when your skull-and-crossbones is grinning like that!
I’m sorting through my supplies for STS and I’m wondering if anyone would want these? I’d list them as 5pts because they would cost me a lot to ship.
I will be posting some other supplies I will be adding to my shop to see if people are interested. (If not they’re leaving my house) I’m “rage cleaning.”
Three suggestions: one you could offer mystery grab bag of beads for 1-2pts and may get some interest with that. You could also offer these in the use-it-lose-it craft-along and request the recipient pay for shipping (with a rough guesstimate of what that range might be). My gut says a ton of people are going to want those mushroom, chicken, and (duck?) beads - so maybe just keep those for STS. Option 3 - rage donate to a creative reuse store.
Rage cleaning is the only kind of cleaning my husband does
. I hope things are ok and your rage is generalized “argh, clutter” type rage.
Oooh the grab bags are great idea!
My house is so messy that it’s really stressing me out so my rage switch is turned on
I’m donating a lot of craft stuff (saved the best stuff for STS of course)
Hard to part with, but decluttering will help my mental health
lol my first thought when I saw them was “oooooo I want the mushrooms” ![]()
And finally a dragon for STS!
Come One, come all to the The Laughing Dragon, where everyone has a good time and dragons are on the house… literally!
And I’m on to my next dragon. I tried some teeny tiny embroidery for the eyes and I like them a lot!
I added a some more details to the eyes in hopes of making them look more magical ish.
Finished dragon 2.0 I made several changes to the pattern for this one. I made the head gusset a bit longer and wider. I also turned most of the project, which I didn’t do for my previous dragons. It was hard to turn, but I love how clean and neat it looks.
Do people prefer this dragon or my previous dragon?
I’ve also been working on the coffee sleeves. First time sewing Velcro.
The original pattern has sewn lines down the front, but I might not add those unless y’all want them. Lol. I added the lines for the first one I made, the care bears one, and I didn’t measure right so they were in the wrong place so I seam ripped them all out.
I remember you saying you wanted a care bears one @Reese52 would you still want this one? I’m a bit unsatisfied with it. It was my first one, so the experiment lol. I plan on making more to add , but I’m going to finish the ones I already have cut out. ![]()
I love dragon 2.0! My daughter’s Christmas stocking and my mom both need one
