We Have Slipper!

WOO-HOO the moment some have been waiting for:

A felted down slipper!!

It worked! My slipper is still too wet, I didn't ring it out much, but you can see that the bigger bottom (sole part) came up on the back and front some, which for me is okay, I'm rough on toes and heel parts..lol Can't wait til its dry and I can shave it up. (it'll look alittle better then) I even have room in them so I can wear my fuzzy socks :)

I am so excited and can't wait to get the other one done now. I"m behind on my gift along items :) I do see lots more of these in my future! This time will use not such a bigger hook then they call for, but at least I know it'll turn out if I do...lol

km said...: That came out super cute. I love the contrast toe and heel. You should use the bigger hook on the mate to this one...so they match. These will make super cute Christmas Gifts. I'm sure all your DIL will love them.; March 22, 2008 at 12:57 PM

What Mary Means

What Mary Means

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way! You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in. You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising. You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care.

What's Your Name's Hidden Meaning?

You Are a Banana

You are mellow, easy going, and a total softie on the inside. People find it really easy to get along with you. You suit most tastes. And while you're very sweet, you're not boring or ordinary. You have an attraction to the exotic, and you could show up anywhere... doing almost anything! You are spirited, energetic, and a total kick to be around. You're also quite funny. Your sense of humor is on the goofy side, and it fits you well.
