Crafting! Ready, Set, Go!

Ahhh...with the end of classes, I can finally agree that summer is nigh and let the crafting recommence! I have so many spectacular plans for the next coming months, mostly planning for FONDUE FEST! A cozy little festival towards the end of summer where plenty of crafty and foodie-type vendors set up shop and hope it doesn't rain. I'll be selling my QLBs (quilt-like objects) and other various hand-crafted goods alongside good, long-time friends, a knitter and a painter.

I've kept myself busy over the past semester so as not to get rusty. Enjoy my collection entitled, "Crafts to Keep My Sanity."
Here's a dog sweater that I made for a pooch much smaller than mine.
A Dwarf Beard for my dear cousin who is a lot larger than the model in the picture.
 Two matching chef hats for two cute little crazies.
A handy knitting bag for a friend, with pockets!
 A headband for a darling little lovely.
 A quilt for ME!
 Some cutie little rosies whose destinies are yet to be determined.
 Tiny market/lunch/book bag.
A Wheel of Fortune purse with an ever-so-darling lining. I may write a blog post dedicated to how much I love this little purse.
A Pinterest attempt - key chain headphone case, needs perfecting.
 The cutest little potholder you've ever seen!
WIP - Hand quilting my husband's great-grandma's Dresden quilt. This thing might be older than my grandma, very cool. Observe how my helper snoozes on the job.
WIP - My knitting! I'm making the Color Affection shawl and it is taking a very long time. I love this pattern and enjoy the lengthy garter stitch rows. Will be sad to see this one finished.









I'm looking forward to another fantastic summer of creation! May you find inspiration and offer any criticism necessary from and towards my work!
