BE sure to check back!

i will have several or hmmm maybe LOTS of giveaways. i finally photographed them as i know i've said i was gonna giveaway then never actually did it...so i will. i will!!

here are some bags i did months ago...freeform crochet on rug hook canvas.

i seen prudence & some of the freeform gang on uncommon threads and finally realized i had hoarded enough canvas to do many many bags-i just need fiber as i normally used them for making rag rugs. i had resisted for SOOOO long to not buy fiber. i have to many loves to start another lust. i gave to temptation though i now have lots of LUSH (lust for) fiber. its a good waiting while "watching" the kiddo tae kwon do thing to do.




this was the first one i did




this amazing BIRD retro bag is on etsy.









this one i just wanted to use all sorts of fancy fibers to crochet a bag....and i LOVE it too.
