Latch Hook TAZ

Latch Hook TAZ

This is the first Latch Hook project that I undertook.  The beauty took me nearly 6 months to complete working nights and weekends.  I started out by taking a photo of my project as I completed each row of thread, but I kept missing my spot for the tripod and it was seriously jerky, so I abandoned that plan.

Of course, as I worked longer on the project, my skills got better, but my fingers still hurt after a session.  Then I’d slow down for a while and work on a different project.

Since this was my first latch hook project, it took me a while to get the hang of it.  It is not difficult, it is really quite boring since you repeat the steps exactly every time.  But occasionally you change colors of threads.

Oh, I even broke one of the needles, which is quite a feat.  It broke right at the front edge of the big hole thingy.

It is now mounted in a prominent spot on the door to the storage room under the stairwell.

I hope you enjoy my TAZ guy.  Look forward to some of the other apparel that I have in my collection in later posts.

TAZ 2

 

Today, I would like to discuss my airfreshener.   When I originally got it, we put it in the car.

Well, after awhile, it didn’t offer any refreshing odors, so it is now attached to my desk.

Like most of my TAZ collection, it is just there.

In upcoming issues of my blog, you will see more of my TAZ collection including the latch hook project that took me several months to complete.  Look for it.

Hello world!

Hi all…..

I’ve got a collection of TAZ things including my coffee/tea cup.  It is your traditional cup with TAZ’s picture on the side.

I’ve had this cup for well over 5 years so there are some permanent stains on the inside.  There are no chips, however, which makes me very pleased.

As you can see my TAZ coffee cup is special.

In future posts, I’ll discuss other TAZ items in my collection including my Latchhook project which took several months to complete.
