A few things today

First, my "E" blog. It is http://www.ericabunker.com/ Erica makes some beautiful things, and her wardrobe is nicer than anything you could buy ready-to-wear!


I also want to mention that E is for Etsy. Many of my fellow bloggers have Etsy shoppes. I hope to have one someday, too. (Dang, I gotta get working on that!) But I'd like to remind you that Etsy isn't just for finished handmade items. I have bought fabric, vintage patterns and buttons there, too! In fact, lately it's the first place I look for buttons.


And now on to Sew Crafty Friday! http://w8ng4him.blogspot.com/ Why don't you pay Shereen a visit?


This is my first attempt at amigurumi. In fact, it's such a first attempt I don't know how to spell the word. Let me check...yeah, I think I got it right. I made an octopus, and I like the way she came out...even if it was a pain to sew on the tentacles. Here's the link: http://www.lionbrand.com/patterns/70588AD.html

You have to sign up, but it's free and there are a lot of cool crochet patterns. There's knit stuff in there, too, of course!

That's a bow on her head, just so you know it's a 'she.' She is now living on a shelf in my dining room hutch. My husband likes her, and he works at the dining room table. So she can be his mascot.
