Right now I'm in the middle of a plastic canvas tissue box cover I'm making for my charity group, and I also just finished up some cute Dotee dolls for a swap on Craftser. Now I will be starting an amigurumi for a swap there also. I'm also going to make a ------------- for Swap #2 on Craft Forum. Naturally I can't say what I'm making for this swap 'cause it's a surprise. I usually have lots of WIPs all around the house.

My mother does plastic canvass and I used to do it a lot too but I can't do it any more because it hurts my fingers, I love the look of it though!

I'm working on ideas at the moment. Plan to do some things to raise money for charity. Thinking mainly on the Plush route as I have fairly good experience and my five Plushies I just made got given away pretty quickly. Thinking of making some Moustache plushies to go along with the whole Movember thing I plan on doing. But like I said, everything is in the idea stage and design stage really

I'm working mostly on planning for upcoming classes and workshops. But I am also making a collection of sketches to use as bases for cards when I don't feel inspired. I also need to schedule in a day to make a bunch of sympathy cards.

I am working on a scarf that will be donated to children's shelter for children who don't have warm things for winter. I will probably make some hats and gloves as well for the charity.

Wonderful idea.

This is my big project:

It's a "custom" Care Bear blanket for my daughter...made the pattern by placing an image on a grid & creating rows from there. I'm not even half done with it yet!

I'm in the middle of a poncho/hat combo for my niece, I ran out of yarn after I finished the poncho so now I'm waiting for more yarn so I can make the hat.

I'm also trying to find a pattern for a halter dress for my 3 year old...she wants a Tinkerbell one, so I've got ideas on what I can do I just need a pattern! Does anyone have a pattern, or know of one that I could use?

I love that - it is going to be HUGE! Are you carrying the different colors the full width of the blanket? I did something similar with a blanket for my sister and her husband - it was their sons's high school sport team logo. I pulled the yarn through the stitches so I didn't have to carry it all the way across. (Blue and Yellow - they showed through and it didn't look good when I tried carrying it the full width).

By the way, I just finished the poncho.
