Thank-you! i think the brown fabric calls for an aqua bag with tangerine ribbon or maybe even a silk blossom....the dots will be beautiful lining a brown bag. i'm wanting to branch out in my crochet endeavors also, so maybe i can come up with another fun way to utilize fabric in my work...appliques? maybe. but i need to think on it and perhaps surf for inspiration. <br /><br />xoxo<br /><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35942890.post-1169065194536728612007-01-17T12:15:00.000-08:002007-01-17T12:19:54.543-08:00BUSY for BABIEShere is some of what i have been working on this week:<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1406/586/1600/786913/lymon!.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1406/586/320/592239/lymon%21.jpg" border="0" /></a> this is the "lymon" sweater for a friend...she's unsure whether it's a boy or girl, hence the 2 button sets! yeah, it's customizable AND interactive. i'm so hip on the new technology. <br /><br /><br /><p><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1406/586/1600/102980/uggs.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1406/586/320/818656/uggs.jpg" border="0" /></a> here are the baby uggs! i LOVE LOVE LOVE them! </p><p><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1406/586/1600/104779/babyset.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1406/586/320/326820/babyset.jpg" border="0" /></a> uggs with hat -- the cutest hat ever! the earflaps can tie up on the top with the strings...<br /><br /><br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35942890.post-1166422799527015492006-12-17T22:17:00.000-08:002006-12-17T22:19:59.540-08:00Gift Exchange Bag<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1406/586/1600/660173/exchangebag.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1406/586/320/829996/exchangebag.jpg" border="0" /></a> I was invited to a gift exchange party by a neighbor and am supposed to bring a gift valued at about $20...since we're broke, I made this!

These are a pair of purses that two lucky toddlers will be receiving as Christmas gifts. Every princess needs a purple fuzzy purse! ($20 each). Have you stopped by Mode Boutique yet?

Mad props to my hubby for the hook-up. I think I will have the hat finished tonight and then post the pic of that as well. Oh so cute and stylish -- my buddy Ross informed me that "skulls are in" and by "in" he means in Bloomies...I'm so hip on the current trends. Actually, I just like skulls and I'm pretty proud of this because I figured out the little skullie applique all by myself. :) Props to Liz too, for having good taste.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35942890.post-1164729105618399532006-11-28T07:47:00.000-08:002006-11-28T07:51:45.626-08:00Logo a gogo!<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/1600/DaisyChain_LOGO.png"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/320/DaisyChain_LOGO.png" border="0" /></a> Here is my lovely logo that my sweet and talented husband made for me! It's girly and cute and I LOVE IT! He promised me a butched-up version to go on my men's hats and scarves, but for now, all my purses will have this cute little attatched card! Today I will ship out all 5 bags to Mode -- I decided that I need to keep the cammo bag for myself! It's just too cute to let go, but I can happily make other felted bags if anyone out there wants one! I am working on two commissions right now (thanks, ladies!) -- a clutch and a hat/scarf set with a new, cute skull applique detail.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35942890.post-1164227315386789732006-11-22T12:25:00.000-08:002006-11-22T12:28:35.396-08:00Felted Cammo Bag<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/1600/feltedcamobag.0.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/320/feltedcamobag.0.jpg" border="0" /></a> my first attempt at felting! i love the way it turned out -- sort of a hip, yet sophisticated version of camoflauge. i will be adding a short shoulder strap.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35942890.post-1162924816359123232006-11-07T10:34:00.000-08:002006-11-07T10:49:02.923-08:00Hat & Scarf Set -- It's all about ME!<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/1600/green%20cloche.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/320/green%20cloche.jpg" border="0" /></a> i needed a green hat & scarf to match my coat. also, since i love my orange hat so much, i wanted another color. now i want more! i ran out of yarn, so i added the light green trim and detail.<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/1600/green%20clochedetail.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/320/green%20clochedetail.jpg" border="0" /></a> close up of leaf motif. the little bobble was my first attempt at a button, but i made it a bit large -- i decided it was just cute and the leaves needed something else. <a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/1600/green%20crisscross.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/320/green%20crisscross.jpg" border="0" /></a> i had already completed the criss-cross scarf, so i added the green stripe detailing and crocheted a bobble button to fasten it around my neck.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35942890.post-1162579437113801902006-11-03T10:35:00.000-08:002006-11-03T10:43:57.123-08:00Raspberry & Ribbons<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/1600/raspberryclutch.0.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1406/586/320/raspberryclutch.0.jpg" border="0" /></a> Here is a raspberry-colored clutch (picture here is not accurate color).
