Hi, Sweetie!
I was a very busy lady this weekend! Starting with this little guy, who I made on Saturday.
Isn’t he the cutest?
I’m making a couple of these for my grandma for Christmas. My grandma doesn’t read my blog. My grandma and papa refer to the internet as ‘the google’. I complain about how my mom has dial up? My grandparents have never had the internet, and never will. So at least my grandma will be surprised by her present!
Elephant Plays Fantasy Football
Elephant Hangs Out With PT
The elephant helped us keep an eye on our fantasy football stats, and really liked to hang out with PT.
Colleen's Knitting Needle Knitting Bag
And I knit another Knitting Needle Knitting Bag for my friend Colleen, who also doesn’t read the blog, so I’m safe here, too.
Regular Bamboo Handle
When I finished the first side, I put in the handle and didn’t like the light color of the bamboo with the yellow yarn.
Darker Needles, Cute Lining! Matching Button!
So I got some wood stain and painted the needles. I put in some cute fabric as a liner and got some fancy fabric buttons that I loved so much so the liner matches the buttons!
Fabric Button Love
Mom's Bag's Button
And I finally added the button to my mom’s bag to match the lining, too.
Lions Win Pizza!
PIZZA
As usual, PT and I made pizzas for Sunday football, but this time they were special because they were Lions Win Pizzas! My retarded Lions won their first game since December 2007! I couldn’t believe it! I jumped up and down fake/kinda serious screaming for 20 minutes!
My pizza had carrots, banana peppers, corn, and caramelized onions, and PT’s had all of that plus olives. Especially smelly olives this time.
I’ve got a group class tonight, and we are finishing up those Toilet Lid Covers! I was talking big about making a Lions Toilet Lid Cover, but I’ve made some slight changes. It will be finished tomorrow!
LOVE the knitting bag – i would rock that!
