some pictures to show you





The top pictures are the floating ripple blanket I am working on. The design is from Ellen at Go Crochet. It is a great pattern.

The side picture here is of Emma (14 months old) she is holding my Crochet hook. She is the future crocheter. She loves to sit on my lap and help me crochet. Of course I don't get much done lol....
Well its time to get ready for work. I have the late shift today. Talk to you all soon. Have a wonderful day.
Take Care

It's been awhile

I do so have to get with the program. I haven't blogged for almost a month. I do read the blogs every night I just don't know what to say all the time. It seems like one day is like the next day.
I have been crocheting though. I have way... too many projects going. It's hard to decide which one I want to work on. My head is filled with things to make.
I still have the snowflake blanket to finish. I have June and July squares to make for the crochet along. I also have started crochet the floating ripple blanket from Go Crochet, and one more project is the quilt looking blanket that I found on Happy Yellow House free crochet patterns. I would like to finish that one for my son and his finance. I was thinking that would be a neat Christmas present for them, or maybe a wedding gift for next July.
I guess I need to ..... I don't know. I'll have to come up with a plan on how to work on all of these plus what I want to make for my grandkids.
Well on the other note the weather is a little different this year. I like it. Alot of people up here don't. I love cooler weather. Not freezing though.
A real good friend of mine, Karin. Took her daughter to England for two weeks. I can't wait to see the pictures when she gets home. She lives about 4 hours from me. She said she was going to come up here to visit. I can't wait. She is originally from England and her family moved here when she was 7. I was 9 and I was the first American friend she met and we have been friends every since, that has been 40 years.
Well I am going to crochet a bit tonight, on what, I'm not sure.
Take care
hugs to all
Therese
