FO Friday, 8.3.12

Short & Sweet today as I have an Owl to finish before my vacation starts tomorrow at 2pm....

I have for you another Charlotte the Pig (who I think turned out better this time than last time) and  a little hat. The multicolor stripe in the middle is some of my cascade yarn for the purple stitch project, just using this little bit makes me want to do a whole project in it, it's so niiiiice! May have to splurge for more in different colors to make something special for me, but need to find a pattern first :-)

That's it for me! I appologize in advance if next week is slim on blog posts, we will be enjoying ourselves in New Orleans for the week!

PS TSA says crochet hooks & scissors with blades smaller than 4" are ok! Now I just need to figure out what project to bring, I'm thinking one of my YOP projects.

That's it for me, linking up with Tami's Amis to see all the other FOs out there!

FO Friday, 6.22.12

I'm back! Missed FO Friday last week because, well, I hadn't finished anything :-( But I have now!

A cupcake for one of my customers! I have been photographing Celia since she was a month old, she is now 8 months. Her mom, Christina, is a regular and in to the studio about once a week. Christina calls Celia her little Cupcake, so I just had to make this for her! It's been in the works for a while, so I am glad it is finally finished!



Miss Charlotte the Pig was also finished early in the week. She's still sitting on my hutch as her new mom hasn't replied to the messages that she has a pig ready & waiting for her. 


Today is my long day at work, 11 hours w/ an hour drive on either end - yuck. So probably won't get much crochet done except for maybe a little on my lunch break. But I do have this Sunday off for my little nephew Charlie's 1st Birthday party!! He is coming in today for his photos, I have gotten him an adult size dress shirt & tie to wear, he will wear this every year for his birthday portraits until he fits into the shirt :-) This idea of mine is actually featured on the SPS Facebook Page, along with a photo of me and other replies to different questions. I'm one of 10 up there, makes me feel a little famous!


That's it for me today, time to work on a few wedding photos before getting ready for work. Hopefully I will get some crochet in tonight, but I also have to start & finish a birthday present for Charlie man and for Mara, my sister, Charlie's mom.


Let's see what you've got! Show off your FOs with me and others over at Tami's Amis!

Charlotte the Pig

Meet Charlotte the Pig. She is a sweet & shy little piggy. She likes to take early morning swims in the mud holes while all the other piggys are still sleeping. In the afternoon you will find her curled up in the shade of a big oak tree. She warms to people slowly, but once she has she will be your friend for life. She loves strawberries, so bringing some to your first meeting may help her open up a little bit. She is a stout little piggy at about 7" tall.

You can have your very own Charlotte Pig HERE!
