8 out of 11 done!

I'm not going to post a pic because it does not look THAT much different. But, I finished section 8 tonight on the skirt. 3 to go. I am going to try and finish all three this week. I have a feeling the trim is going to take a while!

Updates!

Sooo I finally got a new camera! SO hopefully the updates will be more regular now :-) First a picture of all three dumpling bags together for the first and last time. These are the dumplngs I did for the Deakstock Auction.

Spring/Winter/Fall

And as of Today the Tree Skirt is 7 out of 11 sections finished. I have started the 8th but am not far into it. I need to get moving!

This is just a little filler project I am working on. This is one of the yarns I got in France. It is all one skein that just changes. The pattern is super easy.

They are all done!!!

Well Fall and Spring/Summer are already in the auction coordinators hands and the Winter is hanging at home drying. Pictures of the winter will follow soon! See not problem!

3 days to go no problem :-S

Well Fall and Spring/Summer are finished! The remake of the Winter body will be finished tonight. I plant to do the embroidery tomorrw at stitch and bitch and Felt it tomorrow night. I think we will be good. Again I apologize for the bad pics.

5 days to go!

The Spring/Summer and Fall just need the rings and handles attached and they are being felted tonight! At which time we will restart the winter bag. No problem! Again colors are off sorry.

9 days to go on the dumplings

So 9 days to go and the fall bag is ready for embellishing. These colors are way off. Its a darkish green and the rings are a pumpkinish orange and a mustard yellow. I am going to take opinions tonight at stitch and bitch as to how I should embellish it. I can't decide if I want to embroider the outline of leaves on it, or knit leaves and attach them.

Since I was not sure yet where I was going with the fall bag I decided not to waist time and start on the spring summer :-) So this is how far we are...plenty of time!

I have good news and bad news...

First The Good News! :-)

I found the hot water on the washing machine! Ok for those who did not hear...the knob on my washing machine free spins. I never really know what setting it is on. I just turn till water comes on and let it go. In the past hot water started coming out so I turned it again till it became cold. (I wash everything cold) So now that I wanted hot to felt I could not find it. I found it last night! It wasn't turned on!!! Some brainiac in the house decided to cut off the hot water to the washer. So Now that I know where the hot water tap is I can just crank it to felt. YAYYYYY!!!!

Now The bad News :-(

Uhhh that white is not 100% wool. (I will post pics later it's kind of funny :-) Engh it happens I'm not really heartbroken to tell you the truth. Fear not there will still be a Winter Dumpling for the auction.

And now the countdown starts 10 days to the auction and we are at the beginning. The fall dumpling has started.
