In my quest to keep off the computer and not get sucked into it, my blog gets neglected. So I&#8217;m going to try to make this quick post about some recent swaps I&#8217;ve done. A fun one that I was excited about was March is Craft month swap. You make a different item each week and then send them off to your partner. Actually, I have not sent mine off yet as my partner seems to be having trouble with swap-bot and her address is incomplete. (I actually have her full address written down but want to wait to hear from her!) I started off making this super cute <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lazygirldesigns.com\/blog\/?p=1920\" target=\"_blank\">Noriko purse<\/a> from Lazy Girl Designs. My first time doing something of this design and I&#8217;m so proud of myself for sewing on a curve well! I have sewn on a curve before, or rather, attempted to sew on a curve before and my results were not worth bragging about! So I guess I just need practice!<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/norikobag1blog.jpg\" alt=\"norikobag1blog.jpg\" \/><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/norikobag2blog.jpg\" alt=\"norikobag2blog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nThe inside was a glittery red fabric. Seems kinda plasticy but the label said 100% cotton.<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/norikobag3blog.jpg\" alt=\"norikobag3blog.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My partner likes owls so I crocheted this owl ami from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lionbrand.com\/patterns\/81011AD.html?noImages=0\" target=\"_blank\">Lion Brand site<\/a>.<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/owlamiblog.jpg\" alt=\"owlamiblog.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My partner also loves pink and purple so I wanted to make something with those colors and found this <a href=\"http:\/\/parkcitygirl.blogspot.com\/2008\/09\/tutorial-time.html\" target=\"_blank\">simple wallet pattern<\/a>. I got a little confused with the instructions so I don&#8217;t even know if it&#8217;s correct. (I think the pockets are wrong!)<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/pinkpurplewalletblog.jpg\" alt=\"pinkpurplewalletblog.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I had gotten these dangles by accident on an order and was told I could keep them (!) so since I&#8217;m not a gold person, I&#8217;m glad I could use them for swaps! My partner likes Winnie the pooh so made this pendant.<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/winniependantblog.jpg\" alt=\"winniependantblog.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The second swap I&#8217;m writing about is the Colorific Tote swap. You make or buy a colorful tote and fill it with things with the colors red, orange, yellow, blue, purple, brown and black. Some stuff I bought but here are the things I made:<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/markettoteblog.jpg\" alt=\"markettoteblog.jpg\" \/><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/markettote2blog.jpg\" alt=\"markettote2blog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nThis is a market tote from <a href=\"http:\/\/sewbunnybum.blogspot.com\/2008\/11\/bunnybums-version-of-market-tote.html\" target=\"_blank\">bunny bum<\/a>. I love how she set up this tute!<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/kimcarveorangeblog.jpg\" alt=\"kimcarveorangeblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nI carved her a stamp using the orange material from PZ Kut.<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/usacrochetblog.jpg\" alt=\"usacrochetblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nHer husband is a Marine and she said she is very patriotic so I thought it would be cute to crochet this USA magnet using camouflage yarn.<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/colorificswapblog.jpg\" alt=\"colorificswapblog.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nAnd here is everything all packaged together. I know she received the package earlier this week but she hasn&#8217;t rated me yet so I hope she likes it! I made her a set of coasters using leopard print fabric (a favorite of hers) and I forgot to take a photo of it so you can only see it in the upper left of this photo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Big surprise, I am still behind on my blog posts.
