I love my new toy!
We made this over the weekend and finished it last night.
Dicky cut the sound holes and the spot where the neck attaches to the body.
I made the bridge and cut the string holes.
I hope this is the first of many new Cigar Box Instruments!!!!

Hardwoods under gross carpet.
Side note: My chest freezer completely defrosted.
WTF.
I could only save the turkey and some frozen fruit. After work, I'll be bleaching out the bottom of it. So gross.
Above picture is from our bedroom. We removed the carpet last week. This weekend, the office carpet. Kitty peed in that room. Gross

crafty crusader
I finally got a decent picture of my new tattoo.
It's a Crafty Tribute.
The banner reads "Crafty Crusader"
I got in while in Austin on vacation for my birthday. It was done by Debi at Mom's Tattoo.
The scissors didn't come out that great, but I can't fly to Texas to get a touch up. Oh well, I'll go see Chris and have him add to it!
On a side note:
I am now plying my Rue Fiber. Love
I harvested some compost last night after work. My lettuce seedlings sprouted. I am going to plant snap peas tonight.
87° today. Record high for Michigan in March.

The Games Have Begun!!!!!
I may have mentioned this before. I am participating in a Spin-Along over at http://www.etsy.com/shop/storiedyarns. Storiedyarns also has a ravelry group. Stephanie recruited me at spinning one night.
My package came in yesterday. 4 oz of SW Merino in Rue Colorway! Along with the package came some stitch marker goodies and pretty gold powder.
I couldn't wait to start spinning. I am going for a 2ply. I'm using my larger whorl and spinning my default thickness for a single. I've spun an ounce so far. It spins like butter! Oooooooooo
