It turns out that I may have a dissapointing month as far as metting my craft goals go.
I've decided to hold off painting the table until next month - I have yet to make a final decision on a paint color and the weather in April is still a little unpredictable. That, and I realized that my table is pretty stuck in the kitchen so it will become an enormous project to corner and pen my Baby Bees. I may wait until the end of May so I have another pair of hands (my bestie is coming up from Texas!) to do crazy painting things with.
However...
I still aim at getting those paint swatches. And I still aim at finishing Boy Bee's blanket.
I did attempt a project today.
I would like to crochet a quick little ruffly skirt to stitch onto some of Girl Bee's t-shirts.
I absolutely love the one pattern that Earning-My-Cape posted! I'll do mine in lime green.
I have some tiny (size 11 an 12) crochet needles that are small enough to slip through t-shirt fabric, but when pulling the yarn back through, they would only grab one or two strings of the entire 4-piece strand and then leave a gaping hole when being pulled back through.
I think I'll crochet the skirt free of the shirt and stitch it on after it's finished.
Or I'll play with some of the white tulle my mother-in-law passed my way recently and see about making a skirt with that.
Today is Titanic Rememberance Day. This is the day it sank 101 years ago.
Today, the Boston Marathon was bombed. No amount of light hearted banter will erase the terror of the people present and of those watching from their homes.
I feel like our world is falling apart and there are a lot of contributing factors.
Our hearts and thoughts go out to those affected by this senseless tragedy. I hope that, in time, you can find peace.
