Anyways, craft-wise not much is happening right now. I'm working on a scarf and have been for almost three weeks. A couple days after Thanksgiving I made this pretty scarf out of black and purple fuzzy yarn. Then I washed it. And it came out looking like a Muppet reject. So horrible. The fuzz got all matted down and it was just bad. I still had enough yarn left to make a replacement scarf and that's what I've been working on for three weeks. I crochet a row or two then wander off and find something else to do. Maybe I need a vacation from crochet?
I don't have any real sewing projects going on right now. Have tons of fabric and patterns waiting to be made into something, but in my usual style, I'm procrastinating.
And quilting? Well earlier this year, I made this really pretty queen-size quilt top out of Footprints-themed fabric (the poem about footprints in the sand) and then I started hand-quilting it. And I haven't touched it since May. At first, it was because the quilting rack I was using decided to disintegrate on me. But my dad bought me two very nice quilting hoops that are easier for me to manipulate. So now, it's just flat out laziness keeping me from working on it. It's also my first big project. I've only quilted little pot holder size items. Maybe I bit off more than I can chew with a queen-size quilt.
Nothing else crafty going on.
I need to find my signature way to end my posts. Ideas?

www.mylivesignature.com is what I use to create mine.
