When Scraps Take Over

 

Sometimes, the blanket you make to use up your scraps (thrifty crafter here) takes on a life of its own, and it's no longer a little side project but starts to grow out of proportion.

So here's the blanket that created the scraps:


And here's the scrap blanket.


 And here's the scrap on the scrap blanket.

  4. My goodness, how handsome the Little Gingerbread Boy is! You are far more dedicated than me in using up your scraps. I feel virtuous that I've divvied them up by color family into separate bags before stuffing them in the back of the closet.

  5. I just found your blog. I think I was googling "crochet plaid" or something. Anyhoo, I just wanted to say that your blog has sucked two days of my life away, as I've been forced to go back through and read your old posts. I got back to March 2011 and have decided that it's time to STOP! I MUST do laundry!!! My house is a wreck and needs attention!!! So, with great trepidation, I extricate myself from your blog. I shall return.

    PS - You have a beautiful baby and great talent (for yarncrafts and comedy). Keep up the good work! I look forward to reading more!

    What a lovely compliment to wake up to! Though now I'm not sure whether I ought to write more or less ;-) In any case, I've been remiss lately but have some nice photos to upload. I just have to gather my thoughts (my wits) and get down to it!
