Snowflake Challenge #15

[obstinatecondolement]

In your own space, create your own challenge.



I've seen some great responses to this challenge and it's tempting to steal some. For example, I was thrilled to see muccamukk's challenge to create a fandom/character/ship manifesto before March 31, because that's exactly what I'm doing right now! It would be fun if there was a flurry of them before the end of March.

Several people have also suggested being more active on Dreamwidth in various ways, be that commenting more on personal posts or posting to communities.

I intend to do all of those things, but for my offical challenge I will commit to finishing the crochet Karate Kid dolls that have been languishing in my UFO pile and, more generally, to finishing my WIPs.

Okay but I kind of need to see the Karate Kid crochet dolls?!? So I hope you finish them!

[obstinatecondolement]

I will get the first one out today and work on him while I watch a movie :D

[spikedluv]

I want to see those dolls, too! *g*

[obstinatecondolement]

I have a head for Tommy done so far! I'm starting off with the Cobra boys and then I'll make Daniel and Mr Miyagi... and maybe Kreese and Terry Silver >.> Lol, I should focus on one at a time though.

Oh, that's lovely!! Good luck with Finishing Things :D The craft project sounds fun!!

[obstinatecondolement]

Thank you! They're based on a similar pattern to these Star Trek dolls.

[vriddy]

So cute!! Are these ones for yourself? :D

[obstinatecondolement]

I'm not sure! I might keep them, but I generally end up passing dolls on to people who I think will really like them.

[vriddy]

Hope you find a good home for them too, then :D

[obstinatecondolement]

Hopefully!

That's among my challenges too, and I have a post on reactivating communities here.

Awesome. Since you're into crafts, allow me to point out that allbingo has a National Craft Month fest slated for March. If you've made good progress on your WIPs by then, you might check it out. I'm really hoping to see some non-writing fills then.

Yay! I'm happy I could help.

I'm definitely thinking of creating a fandom/ship manifesto too; just deciding which one. It'd totally be great to see a bunch of them pop up!

Good luck with your crochet and the WIPs! If you want encouragement on the latter, there is crackthewip. I signed up hoping to finish mine. :D

[obstinatecondolement]

Oh cool, that's for the suggestion!
