Voodoo rabbit...

My latest rabbit creation is looking decidedly creepy at the moment... Some friends & I are doing a "craft it forward" activity where we make something for 5 people & those 5 people each make for 5 more & so on. It felt like a great idea in January, but 4 months later, I'm beginning to feel that I'm running out of time! This little dude, unpinned, will be one of my makes to "craft forward".

First post - finally!

As of 19 January 2013, it was the first time in 15 years that I hadn't had a website. Although I had largely ignored my site for the last several years anyway, it still felt peculiar to have no web presence. With the amount of things I was making on the increase, and my Facebook friends' tolerance for sharing in my every crafty activity possibly on the wane, I decided to start another blog. The last blog I had was back in the heyday of LiveJournal, so it's been a few years! My plan is to use this to share my current works in progress, inspirations, finished items & any other creative doohickies that spark my interest.

It seems fitting that my first blog post should also contain another first - the result of my very first pattern! These little guys are Easter bunnies that I made for my friends' little girls. I've made soft toys before, but always based on other people's patterns. I know they're not perfect, but I'm very proud of these two!
