Welcome to Creative Corner! This is the place to share tips,
pics of recent projects, and ask questions about all things creative (not just sewing and knitting!)


Think of this as the amateur sports forum. If you intend to sell, market (for example, naming a product), and bring in money with the item you are working on, you are a pro and your post belongs in the WAHM section (the pro sports forum . ) If you are making the item simply out of enjoyment and do not now or ever in the future intend to make money off of the item, not limited to the one shown, but ones like it in the future, it may be posted in the Creative Corner.

Posting business types of threads in Creative Corner is considered a violation of our forum posting policy (specifically rule #2.)

Haven't been up to much here, GL. Just trying to hold down the fort while DH is gone hunting for 10 days. Only five more to go!

I should really go rinse off all the dinner dishes.

Zeke is trying to wipe his runny nose on my arm, and laughing hysterically about it. What a weirdo.

Oh, he will always have confrontations. He is a very physical kid (not just hitting; kissing, hugging, touching too), who has some problems with impulse control. He's getting better as he gets older, but it still comes out.

Good night gps! Braden is not really sleeping well again tonight. DH is going to lie down with him so that I can have my shower. I am too tired and cold for it, but need to do it as it makes a big difference for me.

I did get a bit of knitting done on the market bag tonight as I was waiting for Tregg to be done at his church youth activity. I tried to crochet on the longies, but couldn't see well b/c it is really dark yarn and I have an interior light bulb out in the van. It felt good to accomplish something. I did do a few rows probably an inch or so on the longies earlier in the day too. Not too bad for progress.

Hi all!  We let Z stay up a little late since it's the last night that MIL is here, but I guess it was really a lot late with the time change.  When I put him down he crashed hard, so I hope he gets a decent night's sleep.

Everyone has been so productive, makes me feel like I should do something more than sit on my butt and Pin and knit Embarrassed

Oh and I finally got my swift and winder!  It took a little while to figure out where to put them both so they worked, but DH helped me (I was getting frustrated Embarrassed) and we got it set up between a table and chair.  I wound the 3 skeins of 3IG longies yarn, and I just started the waistband.  I'm really excited!

Hey guys! Busy night. Homework, dinner, dishes, guitar practice (Ben), skate practice (Hannah, Ben and Emma) and laundry are all done!! I'm finally relaxing for the day. Wish I had done better on dinner though. By the time the kids are done with skate it's late about 6:30. ANd I had no energy to make anything so we just had cereal. Embarrassed

Christina, glad you got the swift and winder figured out. That is great that you got your yarn wound and are starting another pair of longies. I can't wait to see how this pair knits up. You are doing thin stripes, right?

Well, the ends are woven in! But then I found 2 ends that I didn't like the look of where they were woven and am in the process of redoing them. Embarrassed

Christina: Does the swift make winding the yarn a lot easier? And don't worry, most days I just sit on my butt and 'Pin (knitting doesn't even get done sometimes).

He has a bull elk tag, one of his friends has a bull elk tag and a deer tag, and the other friend just has a deer tag. They were going to try to get a cow elk tag (you can buy them only after you purchase a bull tag), but they were all sold out.

Thanks. My sister says she smiles with her eyes. She really is a sweetie. We have long coversations, she and I. And she loves when the kids talk to her; she smiles every time Sierra pokes out her bottom lip at her. She has brown hair and eyes too, which makes her even better!

I think I've had some elk steaks that our friend had in our freezer. They saw some bulls today, but his gun was on his buddy's four-wheeler, so he couldn't take a shot. They are going to try to go back to that same spot tomorrow.
