Warm weather and a cold

The weather here has been incredible, but now I have a cold. Yep, it sucks. Slept a lot yesterday, but I am hoping to get some thing accomplished, today. I did manage to finish another pair of slippers.

If only I could get motivated to make a doll or work on my hook rug. It's days like this, I wish I had a pool. I'd probably hang out there all day...heehee.

Felted Slippers

NEW ON ETSY!

These were so much fun to make. I am taking a break, though.
I have been sick with a head cold.

Funny how I get this when it is 72 degrees! Spring Fever, literally!

Ballerina Slippers

I finished another pair of slippers this morning. These are a woman's small. Size 7 to 7.5 . I am having a lot of fun making these, so you will probably see a couple more by the end of the week...heehee. These would be cute as little baby booties, too. So, with any left over yarn, I will try to whip out some of those, as well.

I know I need to be making a doll, but these are way too much fun!

Mary Jane Slippers

These are darling! I wanted to start knitting items that can be worn through spring. These cute little felted slippers are a child's size Medium. I do not have children, so I have no idea what age that would be. 8 maybe? The foot measurement would be 7.5 inches. I am working on a ladies size small right now...without the strap. All those yarns, I shared last week are all for these cute little slippers. I will be listing them on ETSY for $35.00


I will consider doing custom orders in any color and any size. The flowers are needle felted, so I can create any design you like. Polka dots, flowers, and even a name.

The weather here in Denver is a warm 70 degrees and sunny. I hear it is supposed to be like this ALL week! Can you believe it? I can :) That is why I LOVE Colorado. It is probably snowing an hour and half a way. Seems like California, to me!!

~Felted Kitty Boo Box~

Here is my final creation for our WSOAPP shop update for tomorrow. Actually, the shop opens on Sunday, but we were suppose to have it posted tomorrow. WSOAPP SHOP I am posting mine early. I have a funeral tomorrow, so I doubt I will be doing much blogging.

It is a sad story. A young lady Nancy Poysti (only 43) that lives just a few blocks from me, (whom was a good friend of another friend of mine) past away suddenly, on Saturday. The coronor thinks she died of Toxic Shock Syndrome. I am confused and angry because she was going thru a divorce and was all alone. I keep thinking if she had someone there with her they may have been able to take her to the hospital. UGGGH. I have not cried yet, but I doubt I will go without tomorrow. I got the pleasure of going out with her a couple times..boy she loved to dance. I will always remember her firecracker spirit. It truly makes me count ALL my blessings.

I would like to take a moment to thank god for everything in my life and loving me enough to save me from eternal damnation! AMEN.

Bunny Hug

Who could use a little bunny hug? What a sweet little fluffy thing she is. Well, that is it for the felting for a little while. I know, I said it before. I am out of fiber, so NO MORE! LOL They are just darling, though. They will be listed ALL together this Sunday.

On another note: I have to start getting serious about working out ladies. My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Vegas (around my birthday) to commemorate a healthier US. I have not done squat, yet. I actually had a drum stick (the ice cream kind) for lunch! Looks like it is time to go buy some healthy food and get my butt on that stair climber. We decided to invite some ladies who are up for the challenge, to go with us. The challenge being getting our butts into shape for 3 days of bikinni wearing in Vegas. Sometimes, well most times, I need something to work towards...so this is it! If you want to join us, let me know... :)

Felting felting and more felting

FEWWW, these kitties took me a few hours to make. I broke a brand new needle already. I must be careful, I only have a hand full left. Pointers for anyone looking to needle felt: The wool that is primarily used for needle felting works much better than the roving you buy for the doll hair. The doll hair is slippery and does not felt as easily. I am glad that I had a bag of it on hand.

I am so used to stabbing myself, to. If I could have a dime for every time I have pricked my finger with a needle the last few months I could buy some nice Dior shoes. LOL Gosh, I cannot remember the last time I splurged on designer shoes. I have been spending all my money on art and dolls. Well, I best be finding my real kitty. She is hiding someplace around here. Bye for now.
