Welcome to Whisper Sweet Joy. This blog is going to be my Diary of all the weird activities I do craft, food, and what ever. This also will be where I post about my rats and my Etsy shop.

I will post tutorials for some of my critters or at least where I found them. I hope this will give you the inspiration to go and create your own fun, or as I call it "My Productive Boredom"

The Panda

I am one of those people if I love a pattern I find online it get printed and put in my three ring binder. (yeah it is getting a little full, might need to get another binder.) Well I was working on my husbands Charazard at work (done thank goodness) and all I brought with me was white yarn. Since I was helping out the office girls by sitting at greeter I got the Dragon done. I was still up there so I looked in my bag and the white yarn was staring at me. I rummaged though my patterns and found a panda. Pandas are white so I started it. such a cute pattern.

Since I I made the first I have had quite a few people want one. He wasn't that hard to make which is nice. If you want the link I will have to go find the cute little pattern again. Two things it says to the pattern that I found cheaper alternatives to is the slicker brush it says to use I used just a hard bristle brush I found at dollar tree. Other then that I just think it is the cutest little thing ever. So Kawaii!

Sick at home

Well I am not one to get sick, but for the past two weeks man I was gone. I missed nearly a whole week of work. I Finally went to the doctor and he didn't tell me what I had just what I didn't have. Antibiotic and inhaler later I am feeling quite a bit better. During my time of laying oh he couch wishing I was dead, I did two of my favorite things played The Sims 2 (guilty little pleasure) and crocheted.

I sadly was only able to crochet when I was feeling somewhat good, so didn't get as much done as I would have liked. I did create my own Pikachu pattern. I looked online and couldn't find one I liked so had to make my own. He is so cute (when I camera starts working I will post pictures)  I am also have been working on my husbands Valentines gift and crocheted Charazard. I found this pattern on line so far it is being a pain. It really isn't hard so so many pieces to make. I think I have only 6 more pieces left to make on him. I a hoping to have the head done today so it looks like I have something done besides a bunch or random body parts scattered on the front room floor.

Here is the link to pattern site.http://bizzycrochet.blogspot.com/2008/09/pokemon-charizard-look-alike-pattern.html  Be warned if you are a beginner  it will not be an easy pattern more complicated because of m the many parts you have to make. I will post pictures of him as well once done.

That has been my life for the last two weeks I am on the mend and able to go back to work. Still not pushing it to hard though don't want to kill myself. :)
