Creations at Home: Revisiting an Old Hobby



Update on this post: I still haven't gotten around to finishing this project :( One of my missions this 2013!

Creations at Home: Revisiting an Old Hobby
18 Sep. 2012



It has been a while since my hands created something.  Oh, yes I did draw a black lily last month in my attempt to learn how to draw flowers.  The result was so-so, I guess, but was okay enough for me.   I will try my hand at that again some other time and maybe post the finished pieces here.  But right now, my hands are itching for another old hobby of mine, which is crocheting! It's a hobby, skill and talent I inherited from my Mami.  And I haven’t created anything in a very long time!


My Mami is crocheting skirts, tops, bags and what-not as her small made-to-order business. In case you’re interested, you may visit our Facebook Fanpage – Bettitamei Creations to see all of her works. Some of them are mine J  Although I don’t really crochet to sell.  I just make things for myself. I don’t know why but I can’t seem to find the motivation to finish something that is not for me. There was only one time when I crocheted a blouse that a classmate commissioned from me.  But who knows? Maybe this time….?  If the price is right! ;)

Anyway, as I’ve said my hands suddenly felt the itch the other day and I went with my Mami when she bought yarns for her business.  The photo above are the yarns I bought for myself.

A couple of days later, here are the motifs I have finished during non-work hours (which are very few) while watching TV….





I still need more of these to connect together and complete my handiwork.  Can you guess what I’m going to make???   Feel free to post your guesses!
