The Original Dunkles

Designer tip #37: If you don't write down the pattern as you go, you don't get 1 pattern. You get 4 slightly confused cousins who all think THEY are the original.
Meet the candy corn committee: Big & Sweet, Blue-Eyed Baby, Blushy McSmiles, and Green-Eyed Side-Eye.
Heavily inspired by another talented maker (thank you for the idea!) but freestyled from memory... which, as you can see, is not reliable.
Anyone else do this or is it just me?

Designing squishes for fall and these two are already acting CORNY! 🌽😂 Can't decide if I like the big-eyed baby or the blushy mean girl better.
Team Sweet or Team Sassy?

Sign makers, diaper cake designers? While pulling out rounds for a customer, I came across 18 inch 1/4 inch rounds. Enlarge white round to see grooves. I have both white and red round available for $6 each.

It's amazing how life's moments can reveal our true passions! Designing, for me, has become an integral part of my being. I recently poured my heart into a crochet project for a dear person's daughter, and the outcome was gorgeous! I'm grateful for experiences that let me express my creativity. (Pictures after her graduation party). Whether it's through yarn, wood, or fabric, the process of creating something meaningful is truly fulfilling, and I'm excited to continue exploring this side of myself.

Never allow anyone or even yourself to find your true happiness!
