One more thing......

I have to share my most favorite new gadget. I got a Nookcolor for Christmas. LOVE IT!


Yarn.....

What should I do with these?
I've started a scarf using the multicolored and gold....lets see how it turns out. 


Projects...what's next?

So I've been dabbling a bit, doing a little crocheting and sewing since Christmas is over. Here are a few of the things I've made.
 I made this pin cushion that I found a tutorial for on http://www.oneprettything.com/


I also found this great tutorial for a heating pad. I made several for Christmas gifts. So I made one for our house, but haven't used it yet. Pretty huh? And I made it from left over fabric I had. 

Now for some crochet projects. Maybe I'll send these to my cold relatives in Iowa. 



Better late then never

Okay so its early January 2011 and I am just going through pictures on my camera. I ran across some I took before a Christmas party at our house. So thought I'd post them. Like I said...better late then never?

So, what next?

The New Year is here, what next? I've been crocheting some and have lots of fabric to start working on some projects. I really want to remodel my spare room to make it into a craft room. Here is one great storage idea I found. I'll be working on it in the near future. 

More aprons



One more picture of Christmas aprons, my daughter Renee & granddaughter Madisyn. 

My homemade Christmas

For Christmas this year (well I guess it was last year now) I made all the women aprons. I was so proud of them. Here are pictures I asked them to take since I could not be there, they live in Iowa and I live in California. I also made heating pads for the guys. That's my son there modeling his.
