next

i've finished knitting up the cell phone pouch & purse. quite pleased that i've learned a few new techniques in the process. now to felt them. i have yet to figure out how to crochet the "platter" to cover the buttons. will experiment some tonight. and then on to the prayer shawl.

oh oh oh i got my dressform yesterday. easy assembly this morning. i can't wait to use it. i've got some ideas and am waiting (im)patiently to start. there's a strapless dress for nikki -i'm envisioning a black matte satin w/ peridot tulle just peeking out underneath. and a woven wool/poly blend short jacket, 3/4 sleeves maybe some version of the black & peridot -if i can find it. what nikki wants is probably entirely different. and i want to do a shirt jacket out of a sweet brocade i found (for me). it's sooooooo exciting!
