She always gets an 'ugly' present from me and when I saw him at <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=111200">Megan's ETSY SHOP</a> I could not resist and had had had to buy him! She will love him and if she ever read my blog she would get this spoiler early... as she barely had an internet connection, she won't know until she reads this when I tell her about it!

Jasmine has stated on her blog and in person how the Yeti, to her, represents her hubby, Matt. Matt is a very devoted husband and partner for Jasmine and works hard and is very proud of the success his wife has developed. To this end, I had an idea.. why not make the YETI come to life! <div><br /><div></div><div>So I went Yeti hunting!!! I found the fur on an online fabric store and ordered it a couple of months ago. I had planned to work on the project and give him this plushie back in February at the MegaCon he and Jasmine attended, but my RL workload did not lend itself to giving me the free time. I then decided to work on it for their next appearance. The Celebration Art Festival.</div><br /><div></div><div>Working last week, I drew my pattern, cut the fabrics and assembled him Friday eve, Saturday Day, and bright and early Sunday morning. Each time I finished a portion I had to show my hubby and see his reaction. YEAH! Jasmine gets dollies and Matt gets plushies!</div><br /><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321362929327200546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 225px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcJRhfJApkklNE6CfYGdzZcZPpSLmTEehPGeH7BFZgbJtuQdC4FAK3qrFiyBLamDmfJmkWy3-wkev0Lr9UnV8hnCb5DTvJn0EV6sf71YfPpXBdNR_t_af7sHLHJcYASK-5Hooj6qjGqpA/s320/yetihome.jpg" border="0" /> <div>Finally complete, I stuffed him and the yeti and I journeyed to the Art Festival where I presented him to Jasmine and Matt. Their reaction was all I could hope for and they were floored to see him come to life. I forgot to ask Jasmine what his name is!!! Must ask her later.</div><div></div><br /><div>~Wierdlings</div></div>Wierdlingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04671805893767275133noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949496114393951714.post-35199222495525470322009-04-05T19:47:00.003-04:002009-04-05T19:53:14.013-04:00I win!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcJehw8tE5kMF4ZE6PLVKU2DxRLvEBQkXv7VTVwfLB20shTDPauwfBIDV4quI1PPHOMsoTJXusSVcOnDYi7TKn0Q8bwy9OzQVrHKkhobm9JU2SctqbNx9Pt7KaaG0wMHIm7SiXP_8BtqI/s1600-h/pinklightningcanvas.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321358633871970482" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 247px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcJehw8tE5kMF4ZE6PLVKU2DxRLvEBQkXv7VTVwfLB20shTDPauwfBIDV4quI1PPHOMsoTJXusSVcOnDYi7TKn0Q8bwy9OzQVrHKkhobm9JU2SctqbNx9Pt7KaaG0wMHIm7SiXP_8BtqI/s320/pinklightningcanvas.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Yes, I was able to pick up Pink Lightning Gothic Fairy from Jasmine today! It is absolutely gorgeous!!! I was able to attend the free Celebration Art Festival here in Central Florida where I was able to visit with Jasmine and Matt and even meet another devoted Jasmine Art fan. I have my Pink Lightning home, hung and looking gorgeous. </div><div> </div><div>Unfortunately the hubby was not well and could not attendthe festival with me. While it was a clear day, it was a bit too warm for me, if he had come he would have been burning up and it would not have as enjoyable for him. Also, since he was not with me, I pretty much directly went to Jasmine's booth and chatted with them for a bit. On the way out, I did grab some Paella from the Columbia Restaurant and some freshly squeezed Lemonaid.</div><div> </div><div>~Wierdlings</div>Wierdlingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04671805893767275133noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949496114393951714.post-5562925994146634322009-03-31T10:02:00.004-04:002009-03-31T11:17:19.223-04:00Such a BAD BLOGGER!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhx1rHwJD-Wun8-BPwK6b6zDxB-uE-XMGBWTBXJUfxbmBq42tsHQKiSINHDqeJmZ0BtEa7-mZ38msluAhf9aig7EUlvOYSCRGZpXzF7iNzsJPqWsCVGjmo7T0RTkpGfPXEbNgPGmryVco/s1600-h/177348.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319353474450571506" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 250px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhx1rHwJD-Wun8-BPwK6b6zDxB-uE-XMGBWTBXJUfxbmBq42tsHQKiSINHDqeJmZ0BtEa7-mZ38msluAhf9aig7EUlvOYSCRGZpXzF7iNzsJPqWsCVGjmo7T0RTkpGfPXEbNgPGmryVco/s320/177348.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Okies, I tried to return each and every day to post something on my blog. Not that I don't have a lot to talk about, but its trying to find the time. I go to work, go home, knit a bit, raid in World of Warcraft and the next thing I know its 1:30 am and I have to get up for work. Over the weekends I read like 4-5 books and then the cycle continues. ::blush::</div><br /><div></div><div>There is SO MUCH MORE TO LIFE!!! I know this, I really really do. ::nod nod::</div><div></div><br /><div>I plan on moving a lot of stuff from the storage unit to the house, I want to organize my yarn stash more effectively, I want to bathe the cats more often now that they are going outside ::ewww possible fleas:: and finally, I want to spend more time with the hubby, though that should honestly be the first thing on my list.</div><br /><div></div><div>I have LOTS and LOTS of books to post for my reading list this year and I have joined yet another Knit-A-Long (KAL).

I have been so very busy the past few weeks. Work has been hella-crazy and its only going to get worse this week, though I will make it through! Knitting has been so and lazy... I just can't seem to finish what I have going and don't want to start another project without completing something. Its driving me nuts! Finally, I have let my blog fall to the side while raiding in World of Warcraft. Having hit 80, I am raiding with my guild and not finding time to do anything else, but studying the fights and trying to get my DPS (damage per second) up to make it to the raids.</div><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5311046341260395986" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1HZdo0ydooxvD5ae7tMnAqlm3caHk6l1ErfMKB7G7SbwiRZAWBr5HQDSJMAzWCcCrumTcQ0fCIPbcx_RXdMrKSqfL_W368mmt3RpzfPS0slomLBMQBXnCQ73jHNo-t1L7ILOzNBakEgw/s320/fairyvoodoo.jpg" border="0" /> <div></div><br /><div>Anyway, I have a new look thanks to <a href="http://www.strangeling.com/">Strangeling</a> and CLIM artware.

I went to <a href="http://www.megaconvention.com/">Megacon</a> and had a great awesome time! Running into Jasmine aka Strangeling and her husband, Matt, it was like visiting with old friends again. She will be appearing at a local art festival in Celebration, Florida where they live and will be able to see them again soon. She had/has wonderful artwork for sale and on the final day had them marked down so low, I was able to buy a few more limited edition prints! <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5311046330465941122" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 254px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1RRnDFroNqQoDA21wAIeYakzORVVn-RRn9U_HkqUaNItgKAy9vaijsZ8UlSWiOmB4P47zGFbP69l2GEpcITk3r9CtfFdop8UWq_m5FdpuAf1aPC2sfVs5mm0oTAVEZcKXL_5tFMoF6ak/s320/cheshirecatcuddle.jpg" border="0" /></div></div></div>Wierdlingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04671805893767275133noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949496114393951714.post-86818767781161351422009-01-20T23:19:00.002-05:002009-01-20T23:26:54.852-05:00Pillarwork Cowl<img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2FARyPukLua6qApAPzjQssZZ5qns0hk_a9UCyw9PtDvzLdYjeg0MytA8TwKorwpGn9RLwKT8xBJi1LfIByvE6xd65zEsb6kFlEVLNebRtPxjXpV0frCYJ8lCbET1jFZOnCvgRyLd5nZM/s320/triopillar.jpg" style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 133px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293597322165124706" /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdHRiVYumPWrUN3Jx-_9cdSLzOnSBeI43Ks5DGlQTGhq9dW4yYi43_kHCJP-mrhpMqs9Zub8be82xBKBIL_jmUikee4cqx4iWFXl_eGyy2NLEYAXV2eCvuc3Q3nChJnQnrx906pxxZyYQ/s1600-h/100_2180.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdHRiVYumPWrUN3Jx-_9cdSLzOnSBeI43Ks5DGlQTGhq9dW4yYi43_kHCJP-mrhpMqs9Zub8be82xBKBIL_jmUikee4cqx4iWFXl_eGyy2NLEYAXV2eCvuc3Q3nChJnQnrx906pxxZyYQ/s320/100_2180.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293597323307183522" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimOBpiPhF_1upBTQZlwNoSy-lbP6IGOKYaBaUhGyflQHXBWMd_wiwuB79J2QFKOd0l_1F87G1rnaUXBTmGYHmGEpJpkRMoyHW9cDyx6RhmA989QfDoLRUi40UYHok_N4XERiU_aYEAlP0/s1600-h/100_2179.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimOBpiPhF_1upBTQZlwNoSy-lbP6IGOKYaBaUhGyflQHXBWMd_wiwuB79J2QFKOd0l_1F87G1rnaUXBTmGYHmGEpJpkRMoyHW9cDyx6RhmA989QfDoLRUi40UYHok_N4XERiU_aYEAlP0/s320/100_2179.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5293597325546317586" /></a>My latest knitting has proven to be a work in progress.

This pair happens to be two different colorways in pink and green. They are also a cotton blend too, so they are not too hot and can be worn in hot or cool weather. <a href="http://irishhikingknitalong.blogspot.com/2004/12/wrist-warmer-pattern-modifications.html">HERE</a> is the pattern for them.
