Negligent Blogicide

It’s been a long time.  Are you still here?  I’m so glad that you stuck around.  I’ve been busy — and I know that’s no excuse.  I am sorry to have neglected you.  I promise to be better.

I’ve made Things — I have a back-log (back-blog?) of Things to post.  I have a new prospect that is exciting.  I’m likely to be illustrating a series of murder mystery novels (the first is due out in October and I’ll keep you posted…).

In the meantime, I finished a drawing for my Twitter profile and I’m calling it Thing 27.

Thing #16: Fail or Yarn BOMB

Posted on September 17, 2011 by admin | 2 Comments | 100 Things, Crochet, Knitting

My first real attempt at yarn bombing, um, bombed.  It was poor planning on my part.  I chose the wrong day, the wrong time.  Ah well, live, learn, try again…  ;-)

I did get a photo before the nice security boys told me I couldn’t leave my “art” on the sculpture.

I guess I’m not very good at “covert.”

On a positive note, I think I got my over-ambitious yarn-bombing desire out of my system.  The next effort will not be as time-consuming. And, hopefully, I can get back on track with the rest of my 100 Things.

And…

The cats seem to like the bombed yarn remains (what does a girl do with a knitted and crocheted umbrella cover???).
