When I seen this technique on line well of course I had to try it, A bag made with duct tape? ok I'm game.<br />
All you need is some fabric, duct tape, staple gun ( oh yea no sewing required) and some sharp scissors and I do mean sharp as duct tape can be a terror without sharp scissors.<br />
<br />
You basically cut your design, duct tape the back of the fabric as this will be your lining and staple together pretty simple. These make great project bags.<br />

I decided to play some so I took a picture of a crochet scarf I had made and then opened up my photo editing program and began to play. The results were so much fun and truly unique and one of a kind<br />

Seeing this snake and how cute it was I thought I have to make that. Now the pattern calls for a size 1 needle but I used a 2 and found I had the perfect yarn for this project. It took a while using a size 2 needle to get this snake knitted and then there was the hat to make. Once finished I layed the snake on the table and feeling like a surgeon I begin the sewing process with wire wrapped in batting. The hat is a little floppier than I like and I think I choose the wrong buttons for the eyes and will change that but here is the snake that was almost road kill<br />

It seems to me as if I get further behind on blogging, it is like I just don't take the time or because real life get's in the way sometimes and then the next thing you know it has been weeks since my last post. Well it is a new year so maybe I can get better with this.<br />
I have been doing a lot of crocheting and some knitting. Above I bought some of the fleece yarn and wondered what to make. Decided on a basket weave muff with fleece lining and matching fingerless gloves.<br />
<br />
This yarn is so soft and warm and the muff can be worn around the neck.Debbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17426461173408340825noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27763807.post-53403931425156120312012-12-02T12:27:00.002-05:002012-12-02T12:31:59.310-05:00It took me a week to make this<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

But so love this Christmas tree pattern from "The Crochet Crowd", I have done a smaller one in green, but decided I wanted to go bigger and teal so found this pretty yarn at Hobby Lobby and thought this is it.<br />

These are sewn on the sewing machine. After carefully going thru fibers and laying them out on a wash away fabric stabilizer
, they are taken to the sewing machine and sewed with metallic thread's. Once sewing is complete, you wash the stabilizer
out and hang to dry.Debbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17426461173408340825noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27763807.post-72227556986072931562012-06-07T08:34:00.000-04:002012-06-07T08:34:31.534-04:00Twitter Tree<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
You tweet the item(s) for me and all the posts above yours,
along with your twitter account so we can follow
you, and list 1-2 items (clickable links) from any
of your online shops that you would like for all
those posting here to tweet for you. No more than two
items, please. ( No "mature" items, please). Be sure
the item is twitter ready. (See below) Check back
throughout the day and tweet all the new items posted
from other online shops. Etsy, ArtFire, Zibbet,
Bonanzle, ebay, your own website, etc.. Retweet our
hashtag during the evening hours. Spread your tweets
out so that people will click on the links. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Please add our <span style="color: purple;">NEW</span> tag to your tweets. <span style="color: purple;">"#RETWT"</span>
This way we can Retweet later in the day, simply by searching the
hash tag. We are not using "Bluebird" any longer. Thanks! <br />
</span></span> <br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"> </span> <br />
Limit of two (2) hashtags. <br />
<br />
Some hashtags are automatic, and so to explain...<br />
<br />
Example: <br />
<br />
Here's what appears when I click "tweet" on an item:<br />
<br />

ArtFire... #handmade #artfire
http://www.artfire.com/ext/shop/product_view/3935206<br />

<br />
By reaching out thru blogger and blog follower's twitter accounts, we
will reach a new audience of viewers and hopefully
land some sales. After all, we all have our online
shops to make sales.<br />
<br />
Tweet the blog link hosting the Twitter Tree© each day to get more participants. If benefits all of us.<br />
<br />

Finishing up my big crochet pocketbook all it need now is the lining<br />
Will have to post pics of this oneDebbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17426461173408340825noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27763807.post-85893432322449662152012-02-28T09:40:00.000-05:002012-02-28T09:40:18.924-05:00Watching my granny change dailyMy granny has always been a part of my life. As a little girl we grew up living next door to her and then as we got older just a street over. So many wonderful memories.<br />
She is now 98 years old and she is so feeble and sickly that it is so hard seeing her this way as she has always been a very independent woman. Up till a few years ago it was nothing to see her outside mowing her yard or raking leaves and seeing laundry on the clothes line. Every Sunday she was at church until she became unable to attend.<br />
<br />
Now my mom is a real trooper as she has been living with granny since my daddy passed away 4 and 1/2 years ago and helping to take care of her. In the past few months we have really watched a decline in my granny's health as her appetite declined so badly that she now weighs 76 lbs and that was a couple of weeks ago so probally less now. She is completley bed ridden and has to be feed and changed. getting her to eat at this point is a very hard task. We might be able to get a little oatmeal in her or perhaps 1/2 a bannana or maybe a little doughnut.<br />
<br />
The granny I am seeing now is so different than the granny I grew up with. We now have Hospice coming in to help with certain things and have has to reassure granny that no she does not have cancer. My mom does everything for her and I help as much as I can. It was a sad terrible thing to watch my daddy in his last days suffering with cancer and this is just as sad although she doesn't have cancer she has just got old.Debbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17426461173408340825noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27763807.post-38839767531851985872012-02-23T08:24:00.000-05:002012-02-23T08:24:53.073-05:00Twitter Tree Thursday<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir3iKeKP-42AFvKkTa9P7wCfNfCdV9869mkri6uZCazYABNjAxdTnhzOPC11XG699ELEor1YTv5Jfq_EAwJY8TT3qwZEGn3eyqivEzcPnSk1voH8MFdpAc_OHPeaOpIYinnxUB/s1600/TWITTERtree.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir3iKeKP-42AFvKkTa9P7wCfNfCdV9869mkri6uZCazYABNjAxdTnhzOPC11XG699ELEor1YTv5Jfq_EAwJY8TT3qwZEGn3eyqivEzcPnSk1voH8MFdpAc_OHPeaOpIYinnxUB/s1600/TWITTERtree.png" /></a></div><br />
