Current projects

I am currently working on two projects right now.
The first is a knitting project.  I promised my aunt I would knit her a bag, similar to the ones I made for my sisters (see my second blog post).  She asked if I could add a pocket on the side for a cell phone. 
The bag pictured below was going to be for my aunt, but now I think that it won't be wide enough for a side pouch.  So one of these days I will go shopping for some more yarn so I can make her the purse I promised her last year. 

As you can see I still have a lot to do before it will be finished.  I am using two kinds of yarn and knitting them together.


I am also working on a Casino themed cake topper for a 65th birthday party.  Today I finished the playing cards

 

These will be arranged in a fan-like way to spell out DINO. 
I know that they are far from perfect, but I don't really know if I can get them any better.

I am going to start on the base of the topper tomorrow.  I am also going to try and figure out what will be the best way to make poker chips.

Well, it's past my bed time. 
Good Night.
