Hey all  Happy Thursday!  i hope you guys have all had a good week this week so far.

Here is this week’s bag!

is’nt it cute???? patent leather LV logo print in pink!  it’s just so so so cute!  it’s so cute I don’t want to use it! hahahahaa.    i got this gem off ebay.  this was my treat to myself for my job promotion.  hahaha. a true splurge??  eh.  for me I guess.   hahah.  :D

i haven’t gotten that much knitting or crocheting done this week.   i’ve actually been busy w/ alot of things going on and i was a bit sick this week and didn’t feel like knitting at all.  *gasp*  i know.

A friend of mine has asked me to make her some things to help her w/ her photography business.  baby photography is all the rage right now and she asked me to make some props : baby cocoon, hanging stork pod, hats, etc.

I managed to finish the hanging stork pod.

Project: Stork pouch hanging pod
Yarn: Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick
Amount Used: < 1 skein
Color: taupe
Hook Size: Q  (15.0 mm)
Date Started: Aug 29, 2010

isn’t it cute?  My baby doll doesnt sit in it right.  Her legs don’t bend and the doll kept flipping forward as I was trying to hang it.  so it’s a bad photo.  but you get the idea.

SO.  I got a letter from Big Tex last week after I got home from knitting w/ the gals.  I was judged.  and Judged a bit harshly in my opinion.   I got the results from my 4 submissions to the state fair.

baby blanket

NO WIN for the blanket.  I got the default 10th place.  BOOOOO!

Snug baby jacket

I finally got my blue ribbon.

Narwhal

Big Tex Christmas Stocking

got honorable mention (4th place) for the narwhal and the stocking.  They will be displayed at this year’s fair.  WHEEE!

thanks all for your support!  i’m off to bed now!  have a great holiday weekend@!
