Friday morning elephant making


Well after goofing off all week in the garden I decided that I had better get serious and do some more elephant making.
It's a bit cloudy here today so it's not so enticing to go outside, thank goodness, as I really am so far behind.

This is a busy weekend for us, lots going on, but by far our most favorite thing this weekend is our trip to Cirque Du Soleil. We can hardly wait, it has been about three years since we last saw a show and we having been waiting for them to come back to our area again. As soon as we found out that they were planning some shows here, we went straight out and bought tickets. If you have never been to one of their shows I highly recommend going, you will not be disappointed.

Whatever you all are doing this weekend I hope you will have as much fun as I know I am going to have.

It is amazing how many little bits go into making our little animals! Enjoy the weekend.

I was just looking at your cupcakes from previous post. Are they knit or crochet? They are so adorable. Is the pattern available in a book or for sale - would love to make some of these. Thanks for your help. Anne

Hi Annemarie, thank you for visiting my blog.
The little cupcakes are a pattern that I designed, it is a knitting pattern. I haven't really thought about selling the pattern or the cupcakes, to be honest I never really thought that anyone would want to buy them or the pattern.
Maybe I should have another think about it.
I tried to reply to you personally but there was no return email address, so I hope you see this.

Thanks for your reply Lizzie - I really think you should consider either selling your cupcakes or selling the pattern - they are adorable and calorie free!! I admire anyone that can design their own pattern - that is real talent. I can follow a knitting or crochet pattern but could never come up with my own design - you should be proud of your talents!! Hope you have a great week. Anne

You have a lovely week also.

It is me again - If you decide to sell your pattern or your cupcakes please post it on your blog - you have one customer already! Thanks again - you are so sweet about answering questions.
