Finished Rope Rug

Okay, I finally finished it!  I am really happy with the way that it came out too.  I think I might want to make it a little bigger since I am putting it somewhere other than where I originally had planned to.  I left the end unfinished so if I wanted to add more later I could.  I just need to go get more of the rope that I used.

It's a little uneven and it's not as perfect as I would like it but I am proud I finished it and I think that for my first time tackling a project like this it is pretty damn good!

Claudia Scarf

Little Slice of Life 

Today's pattern comes from the site A Little Slice of Life.  I think that this scarf looks incredibly cozy and warm.  I also love the photo that the blogger took of it.  Looking at the pattern, it seems pretty easy to make.  I love how finished and professional it looks.  I feel like you could walk into a store and find other scarves that look just as "done" as this one.  It doesn't really have a handmade look to it which, depending on the circumstances, could be just the look you might be after!

Finished Butterfly

So I finally finished my butterfly I was crocheting and I am proud to say that the second time around it turned out much better.  I'm looking forward to making more!

Here are the finishing photos.

Now I can add more embellishments if I want to.  Things like antennae, eyes, etc.  I was just happy to get it done and have it come out like the photo!

I've already started my next project and it's a sewing one this time.  I'm almost done with it so when I finish it up I will be sure to post my progression so you can see my first sewing attempt.
