Remember the jellyfish I made for my nephews' birthdays? The jellyfish never made it. They are lost somewhere...
I took some time to be sad about this. And mad. And then I got to making them again. (This time I'll give them to a person to take. Hopefully that'll take care of the problem.)
Now, I have pictures of jellyfish...
These should look familiar. I used the exact same colorways as before.
Although, the tentacle placement is probably different. I place them via formula, but that formula isn't exact. It's kind of hard to explain.
And so, I'll leave you with these shots of the jellyfish. Hopefully this time they'll make it to their intended recipients.
My personal blog about the random things that are in my life: writing, knitting, and substitute teaching.

Oh how frustrating ... but he'll enjoy them when they get delivered ... they are fun - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteI keep hoping those missing cuties will turn up. ~nods~ How frustrating. Thanks for the comment on my snippet. The Facebook guidelines indicate keeping the piece to six sentences. But I have to tell you, folks go over that often. ~grin~ I'm too much of a rule follower. Heh... Be well!
ReplyDeleteMe too. They could. According to the post office, they were delivered.
Deleteor rather, misdelivered....
DeleteThat sucks they were lost. Some thief is out there dancing with your jellies.
ReplyDeleteI was visualizing a postal person with new jellyfish at home.
DeleteCrossing fingers that they get there! So very cute!
ReplyDeletebetty
They are cute and wonderful and I love them all. Let's hope they make it there this time!
ReplyDeleteI always love seeing your jelly fish!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteLove the jellyfish.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteIf they were delivered, what happened to them?
ReplyDeleteCuteness abounds in your jellyfish, Liz!
ReplyDeleteThat is maddening when stuff gets lost in the mail. I still wonder where a $200 check and a project contract from years ago ended up.
SQUEE! So cute.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteYou're a good aunt. x
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteI saw a well-made paper jellyfish as a decoration for a sea-themed VBS a couple weeks ago, and the first thing I thought of was your jellyfish :)
ReplyDeleteJellyfish seem to be a thing. I guess that's where the pattern designer (One Dog Woof) got the idea.
DeleteOh that would be so upsetting. The second round of jellies look great :)
ReplyDeleteSomeone would steal your mailing - porch pirates? They'll be disappointed that it wasn't a computer or a TV.
ReplyDeleteThe box was too small for a TV and too light for a computer.
DeleteOh that would have pissed me off but I’m glad you made them again and they look great
ReplyDeleteYeah. But what can you do?
DeleteIt just occurred to me - If you put little jingle bells on the bottom, they'd be wind chimes! Of course, they're cuter this way.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever thought of doing a mobile of jellyfish?
Wind chimes... That's interesting. It could work.
DeleteAs for a mobile, they're kinda large for that. Maybe a smaller version.
Maybe some other child somewhere is enjoying your other jellyfish (but I sympathise with your frustration - all that work).
