Ima Zombie

So, I signed up for a crochet war in which the weapons were amigurumi bears made to order.
I "killed" my first target with a green bear (made with a neat green/gold yarn), but didn't get another target in time before I was
YARNILY ASSASSINATED by a variegated blue bear ( very demurely holding a bouquet of beaded forgetmenots)...

but, haha! I resurrected and am now working on a Raspberry Icicle Bear. Beware the Zombie Hook of dooooooooom

finished project?

ALMOST finished project! Filet crochet valence with the word DOOM, hearts and flowers, a lacy border of crocheted fuschias (which, according to DD, since it is in maroon, reminds her ever so daintily....of dripping blood). Rather than 'american gothic', it's gothic americana. It's blocking right now, and has a date with a dowel rod, a window, and a camera.... in that order.... It took approximately 4 balls of crochet cotton. Luckily I was able to score 2 from the consignment craft store for 2 bucks, and the other two were stash-busting. Woo hoo for finishing a project!
