Creative challenge 52 in 52 - July 2010

I'm a bit late posting this month's finished objects. I'm still working towards my goal of 52 items in 52 weeks. July was not such a great month but some interesting items were made



So what are they?

• A snowman teacozy - I made this for a Marie Curie Cancer Trust raffle.
• A nice long scarf in shades of dark pink with celtic knots on it.
• An ice cream doily - this was made for a challenge on the Handmade in Europe Blog. Have a look and see what the others made for this challenge.
• A tiny donkey made for a swap on Cafemom.com. The theme was summer and the colour was red. So red donkey it was.
• A cereise piggy bank - yes he is knitted and yes he is hollow with a slot for money and a plug to get your money out. I'm made a few of these now - they are proving very popular. This one was for my dear friend Catrin who came to Cardiff on holiday all the way from Germany - It was very exciting to meet her and "the tall guy"

So totals?

• January = 9 items
• February = 7 items
• March = 9 items
• April = 7 items
• May = 8 items
• June = 5 items
• July = 5 items

That's 50 items in 31 weeks - so near and yet so far.

At the moment I'm working on a long-line jacket for myself and a robot for my shop They should be finished soon. But I think I might keep this calendar idea going just because it keeps me motivated to see the months fill up.
