Well, my pal (Alleycat, aka Irene) received her gifts today! I swear, I love sending hammocks even more than I like receiving them! Not that I am not looking forward to my gifts (which should be arriving on the 23rd, and I’ll post pics) but I just looooove to give people things. I [...]

I can’t recall if I’ve mentioned or not, but I signed up for another Santa Swap on Goosemoose. The sendout deadline is this Wednesday, although I’ll hopefully be mailing out my presents on Monday. I’d kind of been putting off doing them because I wanted my coverstitcher, but it hasn’t even shipped yet, so I [...]

Oh yay, oh yay! I finally found someone to sell me a Ferret Nation 142 who didn’t bail out on me without warning! The cage is sitting out in the driveway right now, drying off after a nice hosing down. Once it dries I’ll scrub it all down (although it is in good shape and [...]

I just finished cleaning the cage, and put up the gorgeous set that Pink made for me. Don’t you just love the frog / camo print? The boys seem to enjoy it and have been hopping in and out of the double decker and spending an inordinate amount of time sniffing around the treatbox, [...]

I’m so excited! My presents from Pink arrived today and they are soooo beautiful. Not only did the boys get an assortment of hammocks (a stand-alone tube, a double-decker, a triple hammock, a cuddle cup, a pocket hammock and a star dome home) and a huge treatbox, I got homemade marshmallows which are seriously delicious and [...]

Well, I finished Pink’s Octopus this morning! I was planning to finish him last night, actually, but the camera battery died and I had to stop so that I could get enough pictures for the tutorial. Not that it really matters, I couldn’t have mailed him this morning even if I had finished last night. [...]

Yay! I think my flu is gone — I’m feeling pretty good this morning and definitely don’t have a fever. Guess it was a little 24-hour bug?
Anyway, my Secret Santa pal e-mailed me some pictures of the hammocks in her cage today, so I thought I’d share a few here. On the left is the [...]

Yay! My Secret Pal (Goosemoose’s Cavy Carnage) received and opened her secret gift today, so I can finally post it up here! She ordered a beautiful Star Dome Home from Amy and declared that the fabric was the most gorgeous she had ever seen. I managed to locate some at JoAnn’s (the flowery fabric) and picked [...]

This week is pirate week! Alex picked the current set and I had so much fun making it. Aside from the kinds of hammocks that I usually make, I also put together a pirate ship and an octopus (I posted about the octopus earlier). The octopus was a lot of work but [...]
