The Finisher

I've gone through weeks of accomplishing not very much. And then this past week suddenly all my projects kind of came together.

It's weird when that happens.

On Tuesday night, I finished four different things. Four. In one night.

Well, mostly they only had a bit to go.

So, here is a partial viewing of some things I finished last week. Because I kind of want to show them off.

First, I finished off the Pokemon Pokeball beanie I had a really awful picture of last week...


My little hat stand works great to photograph hats. (Picture me going all "duh" when I figured this out. I mean, it was made to display hats. Why wouldn't it be a good thing to take pictures of hats on?)

And I finished another block of the Russian Poncho...


Which leaves me with only two more blocks to go. And then the assembly. That might take a while...

I even made more unicorn gift card holders. (Plural because I made two. I figured I might as well. I even managed to list it in my shop.)


At this rate I'll have nothing to work on...

Nah. That's not going to happen. I can always come up with something else to work on 😉

  3. Well done! Yeah, I was already shaking my head about the 'nothing to work on' comment before reading the next line. ~grin~ My 'duh' moments seem to be coming on fast and furious as I age, my brain finally making connections I long missed. Be well!

  8. Would you like to visit cold Binghamton, New York and finish some of my WIPS? No, I didn't think so. I admire you finishing four projects almost all at once. Great congratulations! (and I love the colors on that Russian poncho square). Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

    1. No, you can keep the cold. And you'll get to your projects soon enough, I'm sure :)

  9. How interesting. You've got perseverance and I always like your stuff, Liz. That last one, the creature almost looks like its alive, trying to comfort itself somehow, lol. Its vibrant with color and cheerful too.

    1. It happens. It seems like I finish up a bunch at the same time and then can't figure out what to work on next.

  12. I do that too. Finish everything at once then sit around trying to figure out what to do.

    1. It's a knitting thing that people don't get. It's weird, isn't it?

    1. I can't take credit for him, alas. I mean, I made that, but I used someone else's pattern. He is cute, isn't he?

  15. That's awesome. I have that now and again with bloggish things and man does it make you feel like you're kicking some butt. lol
