I'm terrible

Every time I log into blogger pretending that I'm going to post a new blog I get sidetracked. I've updated my must read blogs, added pictures, made my links clickable(I think I did that the hardest way possible...sigh), not counting getting side tracked by all the great things everyone is knitting, crocheting and sewing....

I LOVE Ravelry! if I haven't mentioned lately:) I love how that as more people are added the more projects and stash are added. Something new everyday. It is a HUGE time sucker though.

I just spent the last three evenings at babycare/breastfeeding classes. Not for me, but a good friend of mine is due October 31. Dylan's sperm donor is not involved so we tease that I'm going to be his Daddy. Mike and I have spent three full days getting his room ready and setting stuff up. She is soooo stressing out, so whatever we can do to help we are doing it:) Going to all of these classes makes me so anxious to meet him.

I have been knitting, almost finished the second mini monkey and Moms' Birthday/Xmas present. I'll try to take pictures tomorrow, it was raining today:)

This is Emorys' sad face... As I got ready to go out on Saturday she just got sadder and sadder the closer I got to being ready to go. I took this right before I left. Funny little girl:)

Tagged and Mini Monkeys

Wow ravelry is a big time sucker. I now have almost all of my knitting and crochet stuff put in so it shouldn't be too bad from now on. I seriously encourage everyone to get on their waiting list asap. One thing I wish I would have done before hand was take pics of everything I was working on and my stash and move it all to flickr while I was waiting for my invite. Doing that took the longest time. Anyways....

Cloth Pad

I finished these about a month ago (I took the pictures when I was about a quarter of the way done). I made set with yellow, pink and red tied-dye with yellow backs but I forgot to take pictures of them. They were much prettier than this set. I found the directions here (without the wings though) and then for quite a few I just made it up using a disposable as a pattern. I bought all of the supplies at Jo-Anns. I used double sided all cotton flannel, changing pad material with a rubber center, new and old washcloths(Wal-Mart) and cotton batting for padding and polyester thread. Was pretty easy and they (well most of them) turned out so pretty. They are really comfy and super easy to wash. I bought more washcloths to make a few more. Now I just need to run back to Jo-Anns to pick up a bit of flannel and changing pad material:)

Ravelry and a Scarf

I've been sucked in! No just kidding. I did get my invite. I love it so far, I need to take pics of the stash and get that all settled. I've been soooooo busy. It's so hard to get back in the swing of things when you've been gone for a few weeks... I guess I will try to motivate myself to post about one project I'm working on or have finished everyday even if it is a short post. I really like keeping track on here.
This is a garter stitch scarf, knitting with 11s I think. I have the ball band around here somewhere I just need to find it. I think it is an alpaca mix. I've got almost one ball into it, two more to go..

Come find me on Ravelry my id is frogginqueen....
