This is the Lollipop Quilt wall hanging that my sisters and our friend Lisha decided to work on as a group. I really like the idea of the project. But, I spent most of my time cursing the sewing machine or being very aggravated. Jennifer did the Halloween one and this one. Her's turned out beautifully. Mine looks good but I don't think I will do a big one like this again. I have two small wall hangs that are from the fall. I finished this one a couple of weeks ago but have only been able to post tonight.

| Monkey & Hippo |
 |
| Owl (my sister say Vulture) and a red Hippo |
I have started crocheting animals (aka amigurumi). I have completed two hippos, one for Leif (the purple one) and one for Tyler (the red one), an alligator for Liz, and the owl/vulture for me. I am working on a pink hippo and a green walrus for my sisters Bridget and Jennifer respectively. The hippos, aligator, and monkey are from the Easy Crochet Critters book. The owl is from a Coats & Clark freebie pattern.
The other project that I have finished is the Turkey Dressing by Raise the Roof Designs. I have to put the buttons on it tomorrow. So, I will post a picture of it then. I am making progress in my 22 project challenge.
About a month ago, Jennifer and I went to Michael's and bought these beautiful storage boxes. I used mine to store most of my 22 projects. Well I went back and found another box that I loved that was bigger. So I got it; justifying the purchase as needing a place to store my finished stitching in until framing. I had to clean out my cabinets and my mother's drawers to find my finished projects. I just about filled it up with completed stitch projects. Now I'm having to decide how to finish these projects.
Well got to go. Thanks for stopping by.
