MID-WEEK

 
One more row to
pin and sew
:)))

************************
Start of a hand-dyed
project...

*******************************\
Middle of Girl With Braids...
Isn't she pretty??
I am really enjoying 
the practice of 
using my multi-placer 
(more than one diamond at a time)
on her...
*****************************
And look what my son, Jeff, brought me 
last Sunday
when he and his family 
visited for the first time since
 the pandemic began
They are so pretty;
Situated right near my seat
in our tv room

I love this one with the
small green stripe...

*************************

Here is what the grandgirls were
doing that day

Fiona--
working it:)))

Gosh they grew so much since
we last saw them...
Fiona will be 10 this coming October
Double digits already!!

We had a lovely visit--so 
wonderful to sit and catch up...

Fi and Willa 
We love you
💖💖💖
*************************
Today I will be doing the weekly food
run to the Big Y;

Tonight will be "breakfast for supper"
so easy-peasy...

Hugs mid-week

EASTER --GHAN


THIS is where I want to be--out on my deck glass table with my cuppa crocheting
BUT--it's waaaay too cold.  I can dream, can't I....

As you can see above, I had a lot of that Monet multi leftover, soooo I decided after gifting my first crochet afghan to Mom for Easter that I'd make myself one with bright Easter Egg
colors around that Monet Multi.  

You can see that my view is still in "Winter Mode"

















I decided to move inside.....QUICKLY!!

Here are the colorways closer up....I have another green color, but cannot decide whether I
want to include it or not....and that lovely bowl (from my friend MaryAnn) is holding:


My new tulips --a lovely purpley-roseate color...couldn't resist on my way home from our walk today --our Stop&Shop has lovely plants....now where can I plant these so the deer won't eat them for dessert????


And here they sit.... on my dining table  atop my Chinese tabletopper holding the promise of Springtime .....

I am settling in right now (after eating my GAZILIIONITH (!!) salad for lunch--still holding at between 29-30 lbs lost...but it's H A R D !!) ---watching the Red Sox and crocheting those little 
circles that will turn into my Easter throw squares--just fascinated at how they morph from circles to squares....such fun!! 

Best of Sundays to you all....(gee--2 posts in one day--really???)

Hugs, Julierose, La Blageuse Crocheteuse
