A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS

Rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens..................... hello there while "spring cleaning" my computer and hard drive, i can across a folder that i had titled my favorite things, obviously i had made it for a future blog post and then forgotten about, so i will share it today...

this is a doodle stitched dotee heart.. i think i made it for a swap- or maybe it was just for someone that wanted one, or tagged me for it, i really dont remember, but i do love it.
two stuffies i made for examples for a kids class i taught at threads and more i especially love the car, funny though a lot of kids make the donut, but i have never had a child in my class make the car!!, maybe i need a little campervan to attatch to the back...... thinking thinking thinking!
my chevron scarf hand knitted with lots of love, not by me but by one of the knitters at work.. i did choose the colours and start to knit it, but the pattern overwhelmed me and the gorgeous Maree finished it for me! hooty!!, hooty was made for a swap on swap-bot that i hosted, he now resides interstate with a wonderful lady named Kerri.
one of my favorite bracelets i have knitted, i love the colours,
this one went into my etsy store and
sold pretty quickly!
ahhh.. rainbows, i love a good rainbow... i love rain, i love the cold.. this was taken from my craft room window... it was a stinking hot day!
my dotee tree, these are the dotees dolls i have received over the years, i have enough now to fill a second tree. I dont have that tree/branch/dead stick any more it was full of bora's and it had to be burnt, all my dotees are now sitting in a box waiting to make their way to their new home.....
OWLWYN!!!!, my recycled owl, this is one of my creations that i HAVE kept, he is an upcycled knitted mens fairisle jumper from a thrift shop, that i machine shrunk (yes on purpose), and cut up to make this little fellow. Actually when i purchased the jumper for i think about $4.00 the sales assistant asked me if i had someone special to give the jumper to, i told her i was going to shrink it and cut it up... she was flabbergasted@! ahh, too funny, i can still see her face!
and lastly my favorite shelf at home in my craft room, well actually it doesnt look like that anymore, its much fuller and now expands to 3 shelves, i just can pick a few favorites from all the lovelies i have been sent in swaps over the years.....
well im off to make a picture mosaic (my first attempt at the computer mosaic) of some of the dotees i have made, i try to photograph as many as i can, i receive plenty of these pint sized beauties, but do not own one single dotee i have made myself....
so until later thanks for reading.....................................Ax
