Woolly Summer Lovin...

Yes, yes, yes - the woolly mammoth still exists and is growing steadily. 

In fact, the main part is so big and heavy now, I can't drag it around with me any longer. 

So I have decided to continue with smaller colourful strips 

(in different patterns) 

that will all be stitched together in the end. 

This is one of the new ones! 

Have a happy new week Internet! xoxoxo

it really will be a mammoth...

We are entering week 3 of being house-bound. 

The hours I've had to spend on the couch cuddling sick kids are at least paying off for the woolly mammoth. :)

it's growing fast!

Relax.....

The Mammoth is growing only slowly 

as I have RSI in my arm from lugging my heavy camera about a bit too much lately... 

Thank goodness for my really good physio therapist friends!!!

But I promise there will be a blog post about it very soon - 

as soon as one of my kiddos is happy to assist with their modeling skills ;-) 

Pop over to my Photoblog to see more about my new living room ;-)

Have a relaxing weekend everyone!!!

using up spare time

I don't have much spare time but when I do, this is what I do ;-) 

 

Thanks to Jamie  for the photos! 
happy weekend everyone!!! x

Progress

 ...is being made. The Mammoth really is going to be huge and very cuddly and warm!!! 

So far it measures 1,85m in width but will be bigger in the end. 

I have lots of time at the moment to continue because I am still trying to recover from a very persistent flu - 

so it will grow quite a bit more over the next few days. :))) 

There will also be different patterns included over time so it won't be all boring stripey...

A new beginning

This is my 2011 project. 

My 350photo challenge 2010 has proven that with my workload I am not able to keep up with  

daily blogging. 

This is why I have decided to crochet a seriously cool, happy, colourful woolly mammoth blanket throughout this year. And in December 2011 it will be 

auctioned for charity. 

I have not yet decided, which charity the proceeds will go to and am open for your suggestions. 

The wanderings and making of the woolly mammoth I will document in writing and many photographs on this blog. Please invite many people to follow so we can raise the biggest possible amount of money and help somebody with it! xxx
