Gosh I'm sure there is more!!!! I'm just so jazzed to do things at the moment. I know I should probably calm down and do one thing till finished....but it is very creative to keep the ideas coming. That is what the embrodery project is...it is off the website Inspire me Thursday.

It is basically art, but I think that there ideas are so good and they give you a week to do them. You can't always produce something that quick...but if you check on Sunday or Monday they set the challenge for the Thursday. I'm working on getting myself to be more arty and not rely so much on others patterns. I'm not really a sweater maker anyway. So I will continue to try and have fun.
Another good website that I love look at is www.whipup.net They have lots of inspiring craft ideas and I'm doing some research through their recycled section. I'm still really interested...as I always have been...in useing old clothes etc to make new cool products! So we shall see how it goes.

Oooh! I'm going to have to bookmark those sites you posted. Also--how do you do it all? I got tired just reading your list. ;-)
Truthfully, I don't that is the problem. It is good to see them in print though. They make them seem like I might actually get them done. Some of the stuff is possible stuff. The presents are a priority really so I'm getting on with them.....sigh...but the arty stuff is important too so I'm going to have to spend at least an hr a night studying and an hr crafting...it is nice to have some varity though!
Knitting World Cup???
