~~Inspire Me~~

For those that don't know me I am always coming across so many things that inspire me to try something new once in awhile. Or I find something very pretty that I so like and don't have a pattern but, would like to do it or make it into my own style. If you know me I don't follow to much patterns I do a lot of free style or winging it if that is what you want to call it. I loved this pretty crochet tank top that I seen on GOLD's blog that she made for herself it's so cute. I used that as a guide to inspire me to do something like that. So I went for it and did Nellie a pretty pink tank top. So wanted to show it off. Since I took a little brake from crocheting for the purses for the swap on Swap Swap Gals so I could do this tank top real quick. Love how it came out it fits Nellie oh so right she loves it and I totally love it myself. So cute. Can't wait to get started on another tank to for now Nesa but, in a different style of course. Have a idea in my head so now have to get it down on to my hook.


So enough about me talking about it let me show you all.

Aint it oh so cute. I know that Gold didn't think she inspire me but, Gold you did. I like to see a lot of what everyone else is doing it keeps me on my toes. Plus this also helps me to get away from crocheting purses lol. :)


Now ok with this pretty sky blue hair rap.


Didn't take long at all to finish this.

There you have it a quick hair rap project and a inspire me tank top project. :)

Oh also was wondering if there is any of my blogger friends that live in Fort Wayne, Indiana or around Fort Wayne. I ask because I will be going there to visit family and to see how I like it and if I like it may consider moving there so if there is any of my blogger friends around there maybe we can meet up somewhere. :)

Again everyone take care.:)

On A WIP Roll

This weekend has been hecked so I wasn't able to get a lot done as I thought I would. I did get some crocheting done. I can't tell you how much I have missed making things. I like the finish projects and like how calm and relaxing crocheting does. I was able to finish that girlie baby blanket that has the crochet edging going around it. It came out so pretty love the outcome to it. I brought 2 yards of the fabric 1 yard on each side with the crochet edging sandwich right between the fabric. I picked a thinner fabric so it's more of a receiving blanket then a blanket since it will be getting warmer outside dont want anything to thick when summer comes. On 2 sizes of the blanket I have pink, green then on the other 2 sides I have green, pink. The stitches is small shell stitches that worked up quickly. I measured the sides by chaining and using the chain row to measure how many stitches I needed. Used I - hook Yarn Caron Simply Soft limelight and soft pink. If you look at the...

I've been up to no good lol.... Did a shrug and slacks with no pattern unless you count me tracing my old slacks as a mock pattern...also whipped up a no sew purse out of one yard fabric, yes NO SEW... Then I moved on to cutting out and fitting another outfit...haven't been following patterns much I'm used to doing it as I see it then do it, but wanted to give this a try.. It's by McCall's I don't remember the number but I'll make sure to include all that once I finish it completely... Today was my Sew Sunday....so after making sure all is alright with the fitting I pinned it and hoping to sew it tomorrow or Tuesday after work...then I'm in to the pants..the pattern asks for capris but I want to do pants instead... I've been missing because life got so busy...been crocheting running my business and all...taking care of kids... When I wasn't taking care of kids and household, running my businesses I was writing...now published autho...

Hello

WOW it's been awhile since I logged on. I've been so busy everyone. Nesa was in the hospital for the whole month of January due to rejection but, she is doing better now. To make a long story short she is back in school. She is more happy YAY. We home more now then before. I've been working and school been taking up a lot of my time. Don't get in much crocheting. But, I have been teaching 3rd graders up to the 5th graders how to crochet at my kids after school program. One day back in January I got a call from the person that runs the afterschool program asking me questions about crocheting and all. He found out about me though Nesa and Nellie's teachers because in the pass I've been them things and they remember me. So I got a job from word by mouth. YAY lol. The girls are getting the hang of it. Well some of the girls. Oh before I started teaching the girls at the school. I went ahead and taught Nesa first. So now my baby is 7 years old and not how to chain an...
