I am definitely going through a major mental block now!
Too many pending things lingering around. The biggest problem with pending stuffs is that as each day passes, the stress snowballs, because that means my comfort lead time is now slipping away everyday.
This is just going to be another Patience Test for me.

Green crocheted wedding dolls for cousin
0 Comments Published June 27th, 2008 in amigurumi dolls, amigurumi patterns, wedding items.My baby cousin is getting married tomorrow, or today? She has her church wedding today, and wedding dinner tomorrow.

Imagine days when I have to rush tens of dolls, and my fingers rubbing against those protruding wordings on my favorite tulip brand crochet hook, it’s no wonder that my thumb got fed-up and gave me painful blister just to make sure I stop abusing it.
Now, I [...]

New craft eyes!
Any crafter would know what it feels like to get new supplies. Crafting is indeed a good way to cultivate patience, I swear!
At the time when I placed the order, my mind was circling around various ideas (while struggling to finish up on hands orders) with the new supplies. Then, it was waiting [...]
saplanet has a full time work for me right from the beginning. Did many people asked me why I had chosen a path less certain and secured than my previous job?

+ miserably painful fingers
+ aching hands
+ restless night due to dreams of crocheting!

Can you tell the similarity? Cyndi (who is probably my no. 1 Singapore individual fan) has chosen a very handsome color combination for her Greyho puppy.
