Afghan Completed

I finished an Afghan this weekend~ my daughter wanted to use it before it was finished so that inspired me to hurry up and finish it so I could cover her up with it while she was sleeping! it turned out so cute. I like this pattern because it's quick and thick, it uses that big chunky yarn. It takes 7 skeins and you can get them on sale for $5 so it only cost $35! here's the link for the free pattern;

If the link doesn't work you can find it at www.Lionbrand.com pattern number 60751A





My daughter and I did some needle felting this weekend~ she's only 11 but good at it and hasn't injured herself to badly yet! I was making felted Mushrooms and she was working on a blueberry but when I got up the next morning the Blueberry was not yet done but this was waiting for me! she made me an egg for breakfast! She sure is a crafty one!

Then there was one!

I am only Blogging here now. I have had a Lampes Lumps blog with Typepad for many years but blogging is something I have floundered at so I decided to shut down typepad and blog just here. So all my fiber news will be here as well as my other love Recycling, Reducing, ReUsing! Now that's straight I hope to get things rolling and blog more consistantly! I just have a hard time doing it without a picture~ boring!

So here's a Cupcake and some Hot Coco for you!

Boo

I found this free Ghost pattern on Lionbrand.com and it whips up quickly! I think next year I will make a bunch of them and hang them from the ceiling!Then I whipped up this cute pumpkin! it was a bit hard to pull the yarn to make the valley's ~ so mine is a bit off kilter but still cute enough for my daughter to want to bring it to school and show off! you can find the pattern here www.Pepperberry.etsy.com
Halloween is upon us and tomorrow brings drinking woodchuck in my neighbor's driveway and passing out candy! I think I will bring some harder stuff so we can make "duck Fart" shots! Crown, kahlua & Bailey's.

Fall Air

We went to our Cabin last weekend to close it down. Can't get back there once it snows because when I say it's back in the woods it really is back in the woods! here are some pictures of the tree's and the Monster in the woods! I will miss the Fresh air and lazy days up there!

Plastic House

I taught at ArtFiberFest back in June, sadly it was the last year it will be hosted BUT I also took a class with Charlotte Lyons (here's her blog http://housewrenstudio.typepad.com/ ) we made houses out of felt ~ we had so much fun chatting and sewing~ It was a great day! She inspired me to make a "Plastic House" I think it could use a bottle cap fence but I'm working on it~ not enough time in the day for all my ideas dammit!
