Now offering patterns at KDHandmade and new arrivals at KPhotographyDesign




Been a while since i posted last. I have been so busy with my shops, the family, homework,etc.

I made a cowl pattern and have it listed on my etsy. I also bought a cow pattern hat to make for the etsy which is up now (photo above). I had to modify it though. The yarn i was using states that its worsted but it was coming out way to small even on a larger hook so i used my earlflap pattern for the body of the hat and it came out great! Savannah loves it :) She hasnt stopped wearing it since i made it for her lol.

I will be making a bunch of different patterns today and will be posting them on my facebook page (KDHandmade) and my etsy as they become available. I have always wanted to create my own patterns, and now that i am more experienced with crochet I now can!

Im also going to crank out some fringe blankets for sale and for me to use during some photography shoots. My studio is slow comin but its a coming! Prob. going to finish the other wall tonite and this weekend. Im so excited to get it up and ready!

I also have posted and plan on posting more photography for sale at my etsy (KPhotographyDesign). I still have some unfinished scrap sets that I need to get done as well.

Thats all for now!

Im off to get creating!

busy!!

phew..so ok, got everything just about done :) getting the ladybug sets done today and one more bear hat and all my orders (for crochet) will be done and ready to go out for shipment tommorow ! i got like 40 owl hats done in like 4 days..talk about hectic! but i dont want any unhappy customers :)
NEXT time i apply to heartsy , even if i dont get featured :
have LOTS of inventory (at least 5 of each item)

It certainly has been a great rush of business with heartsy..and i do plan on doing the whole heartsy thing again, or at least trying to get featured again i should say, cuz its not a guarantee! I was going to inquire about getting a booth at the fair this year, but im not because im not sure if i would have the time to create up enough inventory to do it, bows and headbands yea but the crochet items, man idk bout that ! Hubby knows how busy i have been, so he obviously dont want me to do it this year, theres always next year!

Im planning on getting lots of dif and new items up in my shop here as soon as i get all my orders done and shipped out. Im going to make a dif style of owl hat without buttons, some nfl stuff (steelers mainly), and some other things. Got my ribbon order the other day (and some headbands and clips) but im not doing any new items until i get the current orders finished and out!

Im off here for now, lots to do!
