Sew Dance

As it's been cold out, I've been crocheting. This is my first attempt at mosaic crochet. Pattern it's Hobbii's Peacock Delight. I used a cake of twister and two twister solids. Pretty easy once I understood what was being asked. Also took the leftover anniversary cakes from two blankets and made these giant granny squares. Here's my last order of yarn for the foreseeable future. Ordered in December so it's not going against my New Years resolution. And Clyde, in his treetop.

 Clearly I haven't been posting too much. Lots of other things I'm doing and not as much crafting. As it's colder and I won't overheat from crocheting. I put Royal Games II away. I'm about halfway done with the stitching. Made these three Halloween shelf sitters. Using the anniversary cakes, made this blanket. I'm currently working on another one in brown and red. And this is the Western Skies afghan that's been in my stash since before I moved. And Clyde:

Had to change projects a few times this week. Started with Dragon Carousel which I had been working on for a while. I got bored and tired of dealing with blending filaments. Picked up Fox for a day. But the thread is a wool/acrylic blend and I felt a little itchy. So far Bluebeard's Princess is keeping my attention. And here's Clyde.  

Finished the Easter ornament. Also visited with Clyde this weekend. I got the 2nd shot and stayed with my parents for the night in case of symptoms that would knock me on my butt. They did not appear. However, I did get Clyde staying with me. He ignored me the following day.  It's getting warm, so big crochet projects will not be selected. So time to roll the dice for my next cross stitch WIP.

Trying to get back in the habit of stitching. I chose Dragon Writer from Charting Creations as my New Year's start. I've decided I'm not going to start a new cross-stitch until I have 2 done. I only have one more brown folder to store a new start in. Also, this was my final finish of 2020. A dragon shawl to chase the year away. And Clyde. He was very entertaining New Year's Eve. Even let me grab his head for scritches. The first photo is him after I finally stopped. I've also been a bit remiss about the patterns and fabric I've added to my stash. I really should make a decision on pairing them together. I'll make that a project one weekend or something.

 I've mostly been writing, not a lot of crafting, but I made my parents matching hats for Christmas and the ball for Clyde. Also made one ornament for the tree. Had to have a new one. And I started on a dragon shawl. Lots and lots of crocodile stitches...   Lots of photos of Clyde in the past month.   Silly kitty.

I had to redo the top left corner because I had messed up on the brown quarter circle. Wasn't that interested in the colors after I redid them. Dice brought up Alcazar of Segovia Castle. A new start. But my focus this week was other projects. One, I got to my 45 page goal for my spec script. Now I just wait for the reboot to see how much I have to change. And I made two Leverage videos. So... Keeping some skills needed for my 2nd career choice from rusting. Bonus if you made it this far, Clyde.
