Little Hanging Witch
First and foremost, I hate webcam-quality photos, but at the moment I have to nag a certain family member for weeks if I want anything else, so here it is. This little witch amigurumi was adapted from a perfect sphere pattern found here, which makes a perfect base pattern for lots of things.
The little kitten on the end of the broom is my favorite part.

Organization: The Most Irritating Key to Success
This is my yarn storage when I started with it. What a mess! I had intended to work on Irish Lace, but the thread I needed was all the way at the bottom, so I set to work organizing.
Clearly, there was a lot of work to be done if I wanted to get my precious blue thread.
I worked...
And worked.
Finally, it was done, but I found something else at the bottom that I'd been procrastinating on completing, so I worked some more, getting these darned curtains up.
The lace at the top and the lace on the window ties are both filet, hand-sewn onto curtains made from the lovely pink fabric I bought when the local Joanne's Fabrics location was bought out by the SNHD. The buttons used to fasten the window ties were also a Going-Out Sale find, which I bought for just pennies per card.
More Going-Out Sale finds to come, as well as higher detail on the curtains.
