Busy-work projects

I taught myself how to crochet to keep my hands busy while we're watching tv, etc. My first projects are below.
My most recent completion, but I'm finding I'm so critical of my projects I end up pulling the whole thing apart and re-doing it a few times. But each project is a lesson learned on what to do next. Or what not to do.

V and I stitched her "lady bug house"
My second attempt at a dish scrubbie...

Also, each day raising a child teaches us what to do...not to do...and what to do better. Big difference is that you can't pull kids apart and start over. You and Rod don't need to. You folks are doing a terrific job.

Great job on those projects, love the hats and the "perfect" model! The more I knit and crochet and follow blogs on those subjects, I find the most creative folks are ones who have taught themselves and think "out of the box" when the project kind of takes on a life of its own rather than the way the pattern specifies.I've managed to have a few of those :)
Love and hugs from Busha!
