Just did a testing for a friend on c'ville http://smoothfoxlover.blogspot.com/ this is her bloggspot and she is very creative.

My daughter Sybill is home for a week. Here is a couple of pics of her wearing her new tam.

excited

I am so excited, tomorrow I pick my daughter up at the airport. She will be home for a week to celebrate the holidays. She lives in GA.

I made the tams for her and a surprise :).

SNOW

Woke up this morning to it snowing out. Helps make it feel more like the holiday season. Yesterday I finished another tam for my daughter, my grandson is modeling it for me. Also, took a oic of him outside this morning.

Finished

Finally finished the tam for my daughter. Took me all day, ripped it 3 times and had some extra help getting it done, view earlier blog

Extra help today, lol

My grandson <15mnths> helping me crochet a tam for his aunt Jessica. Jessica if the is extra in the tam, say a cracker well it's a snack.

Well, just another day

Hey, almost Thanksgiving and ready to eat. Mmmmmm, pumpkin pie, sweet potatoes, turkey and oh now I am hungry, lol. Good thing taco bell is still open. Anywho, some new pics of my snowflake aghan.

Just another day at home, crocheting, being sick thanks to the weather here. Snowing today but not sticking yet on the yard or road. Here is a couple pics of items I just finished up. The tank top is modeled by my relucant daughter Teresa and the other is a scave I just finished up for the special olympics using a bubble stitch.

another day

Hey, another day gone by. Got the weekend off at work and that is cool. But, it has rained/snow all day, yucky. So, my mom, grandson and I went to the oddfellows annual pancake and sausage meal for lunch today, then went shopping at Wal-Mart. Bought some new clothes and yarn for another blanket. This will be a baby blanket for a friend on crochetville. Right now, I am texting my oldest daughter while she is at work.

shopping

Today was a very nice fall day. My mom, daughter, and grandson went with me to Nashville, In today for some Christmas shopping. The town was packed, but we had a great time window shopping. I really didn't find anything for a chritmas gift. After lunch, we did some more shopping in Bloomington, and in New Castle.

Here is pic of my work in progress on the snowflake aghan I am now making. This is a really easy, but unique square. I love it already.

Just made a snowman scarf and my grandson modeled it for me.

granny squares

well, as of today I have made 18 squares.

getin rdy for christmas

I am very slowly trying to get rdy for christmas. I am working on three afaghans. I have finished a tank top for my daughter. I have also finished 4 dish cloths for those last minutes gifts, if you know what I mean.

I am also now making granny squares to donate for lapaghans on crochetville.com .

I have my work cut out for me, but I love a challenge.

Publishing

I have heard back from Crochet Today with submission guidelines. I am excited about my first design. Funny, never in my life dreamed of creating something of my own. Now just to get the drawing done and the swatch.

My first

This is my first blog. Not sure what to say or write. I have been crocheting since I was 10-12, over the years I have made items for family, friends and to help others.

I have found a wonderful forum, crochetville. I am so right at home there.

I have been making scarves for the special olympics. My women's group back home, collect hats and scarves.

I have made my first creation. Hoping to get it published. :)
