Toy Drop!!

HI!!!!! Well, its been forever yet again, but I have been crafty! Mostly for swaps on Craftster, but I had to come on and share this!! I just found The Toy Society. If you don't know what it is you can check it out here http://thetoysociety.blogspot.ca/ Basically, you make a toy and drop it for someone to find. Sounds fun right? I thought so, so I joined, printed out my tags and worked on a toy. I was worried about it being found by someone who wouldn't appreciate it and love it, so I looked for the perfect quick little pattern. And I thought about this one!!! I've made it before and who doesn't love Mario?!?! http://wolfdreamer-oth.blogspot.ca/2009/04/bombomb.html I figured young or old, whoever found it would be happy. So I made him up and sent him on his way, I thought the perfect place would be if I went to pick up the kiddies from school a little earlier and just dropped it there when no one would see me. Well, that didn't work, cuz guess who found it and brought it home? MY KIDS!!!! hahahaha, so I explained it all to them and they got as excited to hide it as me. So off we went to the park behind our house and we dropped it there. Then we left. We went out for a couple of hours and one of their friends found him. They didn't tell the it was from us though. But I kinda wanted it to go to a stranger, so I'm gonna do it again tomorrow!! I did make 2 bobombs, so its perfect, maybe I'll go shopping and drop it there..... I really enjoyed doing it, maybe you can give it a try too!!! Heres some pics....

Long Time No See!

Hi everyone!!!!! I haven't been on here FOREVER!! I'm so sorry. I had a bit of a crochet slump for a while there, but I've been slowly picking up my hooks again, mostly thanks to my new inspiration........I'm due with a baby girl June 2!!!! WOW! Someone who will wear crocheted clothing!! lol, I'm so excited. Maybe I can start designing clothing now??? Who knows, I do know that I would like to get Pearl and Mrs Puff made up soon. I've made a couple of adorable baby blankets in lots of pinks. Never been a big fan of pink myself but I've bought more of it the last couple months than anything else!!! I have some patterns that I'm debating put up here for free, but I don't want to get into any trouble for posting them so I have to check some stuff out first. I promise to be back soon..........
