“Big Bad Bertha”!!!

Cool Fabric Site, Spending $$, & Other Happenings
The days are kinda slow around here but I’ve been thinking a lot about this totally cool fabric site. On occasion I’ll click on it just to mesmerized by the pretty colors. I could do some major credit card damage. MAJOR!
I’ve also been thinking about how cool it would be to take this trip. I [...]

Ain’t She A Beaut?
Remember a short time back when I was contemplating a “small” project to add to the list of other projects I’d already committed myself to? Well, here she is…

Giveaway – Vintage Inspired Scarf
I’m somewhat proud of myself with this one. You see, during last Tuesday’s knitting group I was supposed to be working on socks, but the girl in charge of the patterns forgot them. No big deal, I said. So I started digging around in my craft bag and pulled out a lovely picture of a [...]

Wait For It…Wait For It
Do you ever feel like you’re so close to understanding something but yet it’s still just a tiny little milli-inch out of your comprehension? (Like maybe understanding what in the world I’m trying to say here?:)) You know, like that dream you had last night? It’s swirling around in your thoughts but when you try [...]

This Time In White
Another 2 stitch crochet blanket.. This one took awhile.. poor thing had to be ripped out twice due to lack of focus. Again, this happens to be a baby shower gift (one day I’ll make a big one for myself ). I was all set to add scalloped edging (see comments) but then [...]
