Shuntbumping experiences

Well, the deadline is out, but I'm still going to finish my hat. It is actually almost done. If it weren't for the fact that I'm extremely slow and I am NOT a sleep knitter, I would say I had done it all my own. I think G'Whymzy has been fast at work at night. Thank heavens we have a knitting dragon in the house. It should be done in a bit.

Where in the World is Winnie

Well, Winnie has certainly been busy. What with visiting a castle on one side of the world and getting maple syrup on the other. Ambyr and I did a bit of research and have come to a decision. She will be visiting Dunedin, New Zealand for that "organizing" breath of spring air. Her second stop for Siobhan's maple syrup will be at the Sugar Shack in St.-Donat, Quebec, which is situatedon the lakes Archambault and Ouareau in the Laurentian mountains. Good luck with the syrup Professor! Don't get any on your broomtail, as that could be disastrous for direction.

Where is Miss Wartbobble?

Well, according to her picture, she is at the Ministry of Magic in London, somewhere I have never been, as I live in America. I must agree with Emma that she is in St. Mungo's or was there. Do hope you're okay Professor.

Spoilee/spoiler info arrived

Well, it's another season for swapping and my captain's owl came in today with a note for me. It was my spoilee/spoiler information! I will be spoiling the wonderful Selena Starfire and be spoiled by Penelope of Flitwick. I can't wait to get swapping and play some Quidditch.

Quidditch teams are up and I made it to the Pride of Portree!

Woot! I made it to the Pride of Portree. It's time to make a robe of maroon and yellow, with a hint of sparkles on the star ... or maybe I could make it glow. Either way, I will have to work on my charms. I know we are going to have a great season because we have Wisteria and Hermione leading us. Certain victory!!

Time for more HSKS fun!

Woohoo! I'm back at doing magic, and this year is all about Quidditch! The only thing missing is Ms. Wartbobble. Bye the way, has anyone seen her? I'm getting kinda worried about her. And who's filling in for Quidditch ref/headmistress if she doesn't show up for the beginning of the season? Questions, questions, questions.

My Kit ... Is Here!

My kit from Hexy arrived today! I was so excited. I had to wait to open the box up long enough so Mom could get her camera to get the photographs.This is the shell box Hexy sent me. She got it from Tybee Island. She finds it the most peaceful and magical place on Earth. She sent me my own little box of stitch markers and a homemade one in the box.

This is an overall picture of the kit. I absolutely love the way she incorporated Ravenclaw colors into the kit. Complete with bag, patterns, needles, candy, and homemade snitch to name some of the items in it.

This is the patter for a dream pillow. It is a dog dishcloth pattern on the yellow paper, and behind the pattern, Hexy gave me handwritten instructions on how to make the cloth to a dream pillow. In the blue bag, she sent hand-grown herbs from her garden to put in the pillow.

This is the other pattern for a Neck Warmer/Headband. I am looking forward to using it this winter.

All in all, I absolutely love this kit. It was definitely worth the wait to get this kit!
