A New Project on FaveCrafts.com

So, my angel ornament is now available as a free download at my Lulu shop and on FaveCrafts.com! It turned out pretty nice if I do say so myself! It was a fun way take an idea and interpret it my way. I find that those are the most satisfying projects for me -- someone gives me an idea of what she's looking for, and I give it my best shot. Anyway, it's probably too early to be thinking about the holidays, but the pattern's there when you want it!

Today's Thought: If you are in Denver or happen to be visiting, be sure to stop by the Lamb Shoppe, a beautiful, friendly yarn store/cafe!

The Crochet Guru!

Yup, that's my big announcement -- I am now the Crochet Guru on www.crochet.lifetips.com! Every day, I've been trying to add in more and more crochet tips, and there's a nice little collection of them so far. Please check it out and keep coming back for more!

In other news, I've been working on the cookbooks. It's been slow going because we've been testing out the recipes, doing research, typing up our findings, and trying to learn a new computer program. I long for the day when I can just spend my days pursuing my creative endeavers rather than workin' for a living, but alas, it'll be a while I think. I still consider myself so fortunate though to have a wonderful "real" job and some time and energy to pursue MCG matters :-)

Today's Thought: Inga Mertens has come up with a beautiful handbag made from granny squares! Her pattern can be found at http://www.stricksucht.de/anleitungen/crochetedbag.pdf
