Not sure what I think of garment crochet...I would love to master it, but I just am not sure about this one. Partially because the pattern is written strangely. But I will go with my gut instinct and keep on keeping on!

Little cuffs for the girls!

Many know that I used to own a gift/flower/ interior design business. I think it is in my blood to do something like that though I am not really interested in that venue again. This intrigues me (well not the booze, just the concept!) Go check out MAKE DO MEND. I am so inspired!! Let me know what you think!

Catching up

Jurnee had a really fun Valentine's party on Tuesday! She is a little over the top with excitement of Valentine's day, that and cabin fever, and she is just flitting around here like she has no direction. Today I told her it was cold out, so she needed to wear leggings with her skirt. She replied, (with arms crossed) "I am so mad at those Ground Hogs!"

Kind of a lousy photo, but I put a sheer canopy above Jurnee's bed, and it looks really cute!

I have been working hard on many of my projects, but the cuff above is one of my latest ventures. I might make some kits for these to be sold. Mostly embroidery, not so much embellishment, though I enjoy the one above.
The hex-granny will be done with about 1 more hour of work...woo hoo! I got distracted doing it last night watching Project Runway.
