Look what I made!


Andrea Shaw's present

This is a cute little dress that I crocheted for a friend who had her baby shower yesterday. I'm happy it turned out so well! Someone at the last baby shower I went to (I go to a lot of these for some reason...) made a blanket and a hat (and booties? I can't remember for sure) and I asked her where she got her patterns. She said to look up "Bev's Country Cottage," so I did and found the pattern for this there. (for anyone who wants the site: http://www.bevscountrycottage.com/baby.html ) Anyway, this was the first very complex pattern I'd tried to follow. I'm pretty pleased with the results, so now I need to get started on a couple of things for my baby!

When Posts Go Wrong

I really want to change the title of my last post. Flickr just posts the title of the picture, and I never think about it until after I've alreardy posted it to my blog. Usually, it's not a big deal. I just go in and edit the post to give it the title that I want. However, it's slightly more difficult this time as there is no record of that post ever having been made. It's there everytime I go to the site, but if I go to "edit posts," that post is not included. It's a conspiracy. Someone wants the whole world to know that Andrea Shaw got a present from me.
Anyway, I want you all when you read "Andrea Shaws Present" to pretend it says, "Look What I Made!" I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, and Andrea seemed to like it too.
Okay, I'm going to stop babbling now...

This is an edit... The post that I was posting about (everyone confused about which post I'm talking about?) has now disappeared. I'm not entirely sure, but I'm thinking I may not have "republished entire blog" when I posted it, and I think that might have something to do with it. Anyway, it's gone, so I'm going to re-post that now (hopefully with the correct title.)
