Latest Projects/Happy Thanksgiving

Image
Thanksgiving was ok. Not exciting but, ok. I mainly spend time with my kids and there dad's side of the family. Got my eat on but, not to much since I am trying to watch what I eat. But, got a bit of crocheting done. I got to do some kitchen towels and kitchen scrubbers for dishes. Nothing that fancy. Put a hold to alot of other crocheting projects due to be getting upset at the yarns lol. Here go my latest kitchen towels. One is shaped like a diamond another a circle that is a scrubber and another that is a long square. Sorry no blocking done on either one since they going to be getting wet anyway lol. Also another crochet project is a Round Ripple 12 point Afghan that I am doing for Nellie. I have so much of my yarn that I got from ebay and decided to put it to use now. So going to work this in light, medium and dark purple. It's coming along nicely and just started it about 2 hours ago. So whatcha all think? No sewing done this week. Haven't been having no sewing mojo th...

Back To Crafting/But Still Reading

Image
A little bit back into my crafting. For those that read my last post I am still reading I have finished 2 books since my last post and plan to try to read these 2 books here this week. If you didn't know now you know I am a urban and fiction reader. I have been checking out my blogger friends blog. I see I am not the only one behind on my crocheting and sewing while I read. So now I don't feel guilty at all lol. :) But, back to crafting. Only work I got done was a little crocheting. I have missed it a bit. I have been getting packages from Annie's Hook and Needle Kit Club for now 3 months. They send you yarn and a pattern that you can do. Loved this pattern I got this month. It was of a table runner. Very cute. I have been thinking about changing my dinning room colors but, didn't know what I wanted it to be so this gave me a good idea. Light and dark brown with a bit of green and blue. So I made this table runner here. Also here is the little fringes at the end of the ...

Sorry ever since Halloween I haven't been sewing or crocheting haven't had any mojo for either lately but,I noticed that I have been reading a lot more lately. Finished 2 books in less then a week and about to finish another one sometime tonight. So I see that I got that mojo back. Plus it takes me to another world even though it's fiction it let's me see that others have problems besides me crazy huh? I have been so busy with life it has been so stressful. I am trying to get kinship of my cousin due to some family issues and it has caused a lot of grief with my aunt so that has been so damn stressful when you have to tell a 40 something woman to take care of her damn kids. But, enough about that. I am just hoping everything goes well with that soon. So don't have no pictures of any sewing or crocheting projects. I did start on a hat for Nesa but, I have to say that I only started on it but, yet to get in 5 rows crazy huh lol. Yet to sew in awhile but, hoping to get...
