Does trying to catch a cat count as crafty? Think it’s a stray, been crying outside my house all day. Fed it more meat today then my 3 get between them in 2 days, it was starving! (Mine get meat to try to make sure they come in at night, they have open access to biscuits) Wasn’t successful today, but now it knows it’ll get food here, just a matter of time!

Oh - I did manage to finish crocheting a patch for my jumper as well.

13/29 … today I worked on a mini quilt but didn’t finish as I hoped. It has more detail stitching than I realized. We are going to visit our grand babies for a week so I’ll have to finish it later. I’m going to take crochet with me so I can keep up with the monthly challenge.

Purple and copper.

Blue and violet.

I also started a few other pieces that are in progress.

Nothing fun to share from me in the last couple days; I’ve just been adding some rows to my in-progress sock, and rounding the corners of the tiny cards I’m making. This week has been all about scheduling, research, preparing and planning for things coming up in the next month, and it’s enjoyable but it did eat up my crafty-time!

Today at work was… challenging to say the least. Therefore, my crafting was all about feeding my soul, literally. I made myself a bread pudding in a mug and plan to sit here in this recliner, enjoying it until my warm, happy tummy says bedtime. :grin:

Yesterday my only crafty pursuit was raiding an Ulta catalog for phrases. Tonight I finished my entry for the paper craftalong challenge – photo to come when I can get a good one in daylight. and here’s a reasonable picture.

I’ve had several free days this week where I haven’t been able to sub (not needed or not available) which has given me plenty of time to craft!

Right now I’m preparing the last pieces of my quilt so I can sew them together quickly.

The cat has been caught! It was really nervous so needed to be crafty to get it :joy_cat:

Started on flower embellishments for my jumper. Got 2 crocheted, another started. Just need to make up now.

It looks like everyone has been having a lot of fun so far this month! The last few days have been less crafting and more cooking and looking at craft magazines XD But I did a little sewing today since I had the day off of work.

I made this cute like tote/shopping bag from one of the magazines I looked in! (said magazine is from a good 8 years ago as well). The little pouch is it’s holding case that has a slip so it stays on your purse. I also got to make some bias binding which isn’t something I ever really make. But I’m very happy with how it came out!

Last night I traced out a design to go on a canvas, and today I made enchilada bowls. No pictures of the food, as it was portioned out and went right into the fridge! Lol.
