Surprise Delivery

 My cousin Graciela had a baby girl yesterday. The due date was supposed to be early January but the dates must have been miscalculated because the baby is big and healthy. I hope the swimsuit /sundress I am making for her fits. This "prenda" is inspired by the well known neopolitan ice cream of three flavors: Chocolate, Strawberry and Vanilla. 100% cotton is fresh enough for summer and crochet knit allows for plenty of ventilation. The finished product will include a large brimmed sunhat and maybe a bib (out of fabric). I will see if I have time.

Usefulness

I am in the process crocheting two different pieces. I am at this time very focused on creating childrens ponchos and shawls. I really need to get a business plan organized. The days seem too short to get everything done and my attention is dispersed among family, pets, husband, volunteer work. When I try to focus on what I want to pursue I feel that people dont think it is worthwhile or that I am wasting my time. After all, I dont have a fine arts degree or any professional training or experience in the design field. I just have the desire to create useful things for people. To be "useful". More on this subject later. I need to get to the primary school right now. I am the accounts auditor this year and since the school year is just about over (I am, in Argentina) I have to finish reviewing the accounts. Bye.
