schmancy

I just found out that I won a copy of Anna Hrachovec's Knitting Mochimochi from PlushYou! This is so awesome, I feel like I never win anything! :D If you're familiar with Anna's work, she does a tiny series almost every week, so PlushYou! decided to hold a contest for whoever could come up with the next best tiny idea. Since I like the deep sea/nautical theme, I suggested a tiny submarine, steam punk scuba diver, or seahorse. I'm not quite sure which idea won, but hell, who cares? I won out of about 200 entries!! I really hope that Anna will take one (or all?) of my suggestions and knit something up because I'd love to see what she comes up with!

happy may day!

I can't believe it's May! Where has April gone? Hell, where has the last year gone? Anywho, I've finished April goal #1! In fact, I finished it last night, just in time for May to roll around the corner, but was waiting for daylight before I could take pictures.

his name is Bonifacio, after Filipino hero & revolutionary Andres Bonifacio. He stands about 12" tall and loves sipping on coconut milk. Bonifacio is an idealist and contributes to his weekly blog of political views and donations to various non-profits. He'll always fight for the little guy, but he could never actually hurt a fly. He enjoys the beach, though he's never been to one, and longs to visit the crystal clear waters of southeast Asia one day.
