Cre8tion Crochet Design War Contest

Are you a crocheter? Cre8tion Crochet is having a design war

Cre8tion Crochet 
The start date is July 1st, 2013 and ends July 31st, 2013. I will be entering the contest, but I don't know which pattern I'll be entering. 

Here's the information on The Cre8tion Challenge

The first category will be Cre8tion Crochet Cre8tions where each participant will pick a Cre8tion Crochet pattern of their choice and enter their finished item in the contest. It can be any CC pattern and it can be embellished in any way you see fit.

The second category will be Cre8tion Crochet Fan Cre8tions where each participant will design their own crochet "cre8tion" to enter in the contest. It must be designed by you and cannot be a pattern designed by someone else. It doesn't have to be a formal written out pattern but it must be YOUR design.

Each winner* will receive a Yarn Bowl designed by Mudcrush Pottery! As well as a one of kind necklace from Cre8tion Crochet (your choice of a Tree of Life or a Crochet Ring Necklace). For every ten entries each category receives I will add another prize, just as fabulous as the first two!!! So the more entries the better the prizes packs will be.

The contest is open to all fans of the Cre8tion Crochet fb page. Tell your friends.

*If you happen to win both categories will receive the bowl and either a handcrafted hook from Craftwich Creations or a skein of handspun yarn from The Spinning Wheel.

Looking for Handmade Time



I'm struggling to get my handmade store stocked with enough products to open. I probably could open the online shop now besides Facebook page where I am currently taking orders. So many distractions sending me in 500 directions. Taking my daughter to school and work, living with chronic pain, household chores, family and a one year old puppy whose having a lot of anxiety. On the positive side I have completed several necklaces, almost done with a tractor hat, and have a drink coaster set pinned together waiting for my sewing machine. I've been looking at all sorts of great ideas for crocheted and sewing tutorials. I'm hoping to include tutorials on this blog. Tomorrow is Monday and chasing after my college kid starts again.
How do you manage school, work, and pets?
