I was enjoying it, but things have caught up with me and I will be unable to continue with it. Thank you so much for following me. When things settle down at the end of college in June, I will be starting back onto my main blog, <a href="http://topsyturvyheathen.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Topsy-Turvy of the Mischievous Heathen</a>, which is a blog of my random musings, photos, crafting, etc.<br />
<br />
Again, thank you.<br />

Little Miss is completely partied out, after a party yesterday afternoon and another one this morning. An unplanned journey to Newark did her in, so after a bit of thought, the cure for her grizzles was for us to buy three metres of velour and tie it like a wrap sling to give her a bit of a break from it all. I directed this photo to be taken by her Grumpy on my phone.<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Because I'm on my crochet kick, I've decided to make them each a little bag, and I'm experimenting with Hello Kitty and some new-to-me techniques. Hmm...I reckon I've made this one just a touch too big, and I must have one for myself because it's turned out so pretty :P<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

The Imp spotted me looking at the pattern for a <a href="http://ht.ly/9xAib" target="_blank">Peeps-a-Boo bag from Caron Yarns</a>. I couldn't quite suss out how they did their granny squares, so I went for the basic ones that I know how to do. The Imp chose the pastel wool for something else, she wanted it to be a messenger-style bag like what I carry, and I don't yet own a tapestry needle, so the eyes and nose are buttons. I'm actually quite pleased with how it's turned out...she'll love to see it done in the morning.<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

I have done a couple of my granny squares for my project with it, but after seeing a cute pattern for a bag, I'm currently working on making it for her. Fingers crossed I should finish it tomorrow, to share. <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

So, when she asked to have purple sparkly nails, I was happy to oblige. As you can see, she has a fair bit of choice. I won't let her wear the blacks or greys, but anything else is fair game.<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
