Followed a sale ad for Hobbi and bought this skein. It arrived to the U.S. quickly. I wanted to see how this stitches up, so started a shawl. It makes a beautiful LIGHT fabric. More like working with thread than yarn - a major pain to deal with. In spite of that, I think about buying more. #crochet

Marnie’s Garden (in colors inspired by someone in her Hooked on Sunshine FB group) almost done. Draped on a couch so it’s not lying flat. Working a bit more on my made up border (wanted it straight not scallop-y). Plan to just drape over the guest room bed so I can admire it for a while. #crochet

Making progress on my Marnie’s Garden #crochet. Making slight alterations to the pattern (wanted more white rows, changed some BLO to 3rd loop..). Pattern by #HookedonSunshine. #yarn

Started Marnie by #HookedonSunshine. Lots of yarns sales lately and I *almost* bought more but decided I better tackle the bin with the skeins for this one first. Someone on that other app had done this colorway and it is exactly my living room colors (forest adjacent so fall colors). #Crochet

I created this one awhile back as a gift. Mouse pad she used at work although the size can also be considered a mug rug. Simple #quilting with #pieced sides and a #machineembroidery design from #UrbanThreads in the center. #sewing

The Hand #Embroidery Pattern is by Badbird Andrea Zuill. Probably going to be a project bag pieced to be larger (still deciding). I think I want it to say something. Ideas? #quilt #sewing #machineembroidery

I need to share more of my crafting posts here. The Dumper team’s deliberate deluge to overwhelm folks has been working too well. I started another rainbow hued shawl to sell for donation. The first just needs to be blocked and I can put it up. Ana Lucia by Wilmade. #crochet #craftivism

Lost at yarn chicken for my Rainbow hued donation shawl. Cannibalized my other skein for a bit of this color to finish the row. #crochet #craftivism #rainbow #shawl

This is machine embroidery -design by Urban Threads - on the back of a cotton shirt. Love owls and living rurally get to listen to their haunting whoo in the later evening. #sewing #machineembroidery #owl #moon

Making progress on the shawl for donation to UFW on eBay for Charity. Slow going as have to pace myself so my wrists don’t give up on me. Thinking of whipping up earrings to get a few things up sooner. This pic- the colors aren’t quite right. Will do better once done. #craftivism #crochet #UFW

Ok, decided to go with the Ana Lucia Shawl by Wilmade and made a decent start on it. It will become more rainbow hued as I go on. I’ll post progress. When completed it will go on eBay for Charity for UFW. Those of us who want to do more than complain can find ways to fundraise. 🧶 #crochet #UFW

Had decided to manage the yarn color transitions and set myself up to start a rainbow hued shawl that I’ll sell on eBay for Charity - going with UFW foundation. Took me forever to choose a pattern and of course, when I did, in the middle of the pattern it says no selling completed pieces online.

It’s the first day of spring, also Imbolc. Some celebrate the goddess Brigid, others St Brigid. She is considered a goddess of inspiration, healing, creativity, scholars, craft and more. My little ode to spring hexie mat. Spiro and edging from my embroidery software bunny from Urban Threads. #sewing

I don’t do many monograms - it’s more of a southern US thing. Did sketch a few out after the Fantastic Beasts movie Newt Scamander monogram. But, every now and again one just seems right. This is the Victorian Whitework alpha from ABC Embroidery Designs. Created the circle quilting in the hoop.

Another shot of the canvas bags I’d sewn and embroidered for a garden fundraiser. The designs are from Embroidery Library and Urban Threads. I'm putting up a few posts so the pics are highlighted. They get lost in side by side on laptop view. #sewksy #machineembroidery #sewing
