I’ve managed to get some homework for college done, and I’ve also been crocheting every day, including learning a new stitch.

Gorgeous! Could you please post the pattern?
That is gorgeous and I may have to make one for mine! It gets too dusty too quick! Love the colors you used!
I have almost no blue scraps left except for the tiniest bits…greens next!

Made a big batch of turkey chili last night. (That means, yay for not having to cook tonight!) Today I finished my secret project, that I can’t post pictures of because it’s for an LC member. I can say that it is a crochet project, and was designed to use a single skein of yarn. Mission accomplished! Finished with just a few yards of yarn left. Just enough to tie the package up with? Going to wet block it tomorrow.
Finally today I made another batch of vegan cheese. A Truffled Brie. It’s currently cooling in the fridge, so pics tomorrow.

Vegan truffled brie…I almost swooned.
The only completed thing here today was sending a long and difficult email on lack of diversity and inclusion in traditional/heritage crafting in my community. I don’t know where the conversation will go, but it needs to start somewhere. So sorting out my thoughts on that took a big chunk of the afternoon.
I tinkered with a cut paper project idea, but initial attempts were not successes, though I gained some insight on what would be better for the next attempt. I want to play with paint but “it’s too late tonight to drag the paints out into the light.”

@jellybean posted a finished afghan but the pattern she used was no longer available. Then she shared this link that’s identical to what she made. I didn’t buy the pattern though as it was easy to figure out on my own.

23/29 … I added a couple rows to my baby afghan and decided the finishing row is next since I’m quickly running out of yarn.

I did this Fabric masterboard .
It was supposed to be the start for another project but it won’t stay the shape I cut it 
so it’s back to the drawing board, well, sewing machine:thread:

Maybe try some kind of interfacing or stabilizer between layers if you do a second round? Or much more dense stitching that overlaps itself so the threads can provide some structure.

I use heat bond and cover it all with washable embroidery stabilizer then stitch the hell out of it. I have used the fabric to make notebook covers and hearts for other projects…

“Shifting gears” ended up meaning “doing no crafting for several days” while I visited my parents over the weekend. But I think I finished that second Zetti piece tonight, aside from maybe some touch-ups tomorrow.

I decided to work a rainbow design around this square wreath form. I’m using scraps from soccer jerseys…see…the proof!
The corner was tricky, but then I figured out how to only use half the form as I round the corner. I have several shades of blue, green, and pink to alternate my rainbow with.

What an interesting shape to work with! I like the rainbow effect…I may end up doing that because I don’t have enough of one color of scraps unless I tear into fat quarters…I am not ready to do that…
I am working on my spouse’s curtains for his studio…he has been waiting patiently…

Spent the day cleaning, organizing, and doing errands. That secret project I finished yesterday? I decided to make another one out of more stash yarn. I’m not sure what I think of the color scheme of the first one, so either this one will replace it, or be a copy for me, or simply be a good little stash busting project to put aside in my gift stash. Did 3 rows on the new one yesterday, and managed to get another 7 rows done today.
