Wishing I had time...

Well, I have about 2 weeks to get my outfit for faire done...a ghawazhee, pantaloons, and dreads for my tribal look...I don't think I'll make it. It'd be nice to just be able to concentrate on it and finish it in a few hours, but that ain't gonna happen. My 7 week old baby has decided that she like me to hold her all the time (ok, waking hours only), and when she's sleeping, I have my 3 year old that's running around, lol...If I don't get it done, no worries, next year. But I was looking forward to the cooler, less confining outfit:)

Crafting time...

I've been a busy bee lately, well at least for me I have. I finished the corset, though I need to replace a grommet that didn't get set right. No problem there. I really hate doing the binding though, and I messed up a couple spots. I wish I had gotten a picture of it though, it looked damn good on me:)
I finally did an amigurumi (I probably spelled that wrong). I made a Camel that came out really cute. I'm not crazy about crocheting in a spiral, but I'm getting better at it. I also made a Mushroom. My husband looked at it and laughed, lol...I can't blame him. It's kinda cute though. I might use it to hold stitch markers, yarn needles, ect. All this is a nice change from my 12 inch squares. Not that I don't like doing them, don't get me wrong. I actually, really, love it. It's nice to complete a project in a couple hours, rather than a couple weeks.
I finally finished a Mei Tai based on those directions. I "wore" my 1 month old for quite a bit while testing it, and she loved it...first time falling asleep, then looking around. I need to make a few more once I have more money. I need some more fabric. All the stuff I have is either for faire, corsets, or sari material. The sari's probably will get made into either a corset or something for tribal/belly dancer faire persona.

Ok, Gotta run.
