Too busy creating to be blogging ...

mostly I have just been lazy ...

and yes, been making cool crafts too. Spending a bit more time knitting, learning some new techniques.

Sold a few crocheted toys (including my first Dooey Doll!) and have been making wintry items like socks and wrist warmers.

My goal is to get back into posting, at least on a weekly basis.

too much yarn, too little time

Trick or Treat!!

I'm getting excited for Halloween! Here are a few little treats I've been working on.


Cute little skull


Bloody Finger


A graveyard for the grim reaper to hang out in


A not so scary Jack-o-lantern and black cat

Dooey Dolls are coming!!

We do voodoo!

We're almost there - we've got t-shirts made and we're putting the finishing touches on our original doll (original idea and drawing by Jeremy, created in yarn and fabric by me) ... photographs and more information will follow later this week, dolls and shirts and more will be for sale on etsy!!

Coming tomorrow: photos of some of the Halloween goodies I've been making!

All this blogging stuff ...

To anyone who might be reading or following my blog: I apologize if you leave a comment or message and I don't respond .... I don't get many comments so I kinda forget to look and see it there are any. I will eventually see it and I appreciate all your thoughts.

I also read the blogs I follow but rarely comment. I do really enjoy what everyone has to say and the creativity that abounds ...

Meanwhile, my sweet hubby Jeremy and I are still at work creating our new product line. All will be revealed (with photos) in a week or less. I'll try to keep updating this place more frequently with interesting thoughts and ideas and plans so you all keep checking back.

Meanwhile I am working on about four crochet projects, our new doll line and I'm still trying to learn to knit with double pointed needles. I've done it but it's awkward and the results are less than good.

Since I haven't posted a photo in a while, I'll post some pet photos.

Here is one of my awesome chameleon Oozle. She's an adorable baby girl and more precious than a 50% off sale at the local craft store!



And can't forget the cats: The original naughty cat Merlin and his baby sister Nimue. We brought her home a couple weeks ago and she is his real baby sister (same mom) and every bit as mischievous as her big brother!

Coming Soon!!!

My awesome and creative hubby and I are creating a new line of dolls that we will be announcing soon. We'll also have t-shirts and other items in the line.

I'm keeping everything under wraps for now but check back soon for more information and photos!

back in the saddle again

It's been such a long time since I posted anything. It's also been a long time since I've been creative.

That's changed though, this week I've been working on several projects, including learning some new knitting techniques. Or trying anyway ... using double pointed needles is HARD!!! I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually. Maybe I can find a video on youtube.

My next project is going to be sewing new curtains for the kitchen window. I don't have a pattern except in my head ... In my mind it's pretty simple. We'll see once I get started.

Getting back to a doll I'm working on now ...

Just photographed a wedding ... will be busy editing for a while but hoping to fit in some time to pick up where I left off with my yarn ...
