Baby soakers



I saw this ad with these beautiful twins and thought my grandaughter needs a pair of those soakers! So I found this pattern and whalaaa, wool soakers. Not really crazy about them. I will probably make them again and adjust some things. They are absolutly for a child about a year old. But they were fun to make while I was folding laundry on this rainy afternoon! Click on the ad so you can get a closer look of what they actually look like!

Ahh Vitamin D!



Finally yesterday it was nice enought to sit by the pool and soak in some sun! Yea. This was the longest winter on record in Florida. I got to enjoy some of my favorite things, reading, knitting and relaxing! Also loving my yard coming back to life, my wild daisys are looking so sunny and bright. Happy weekend!

A New Chapter in my life





I am starting a new chapter in my life. I left my wonderful job at Orthopedic Specialists yesterday. I loved my job and ejoyed my time with OS, but It is time to focus on my business and the future. My friends at OS became my family, as they were there for me, and covered for me when we were going through some awful times with my daughter and for that I will be forever grateful. But on to my new job and my exciting future. I cannot wait to get started working at Quality Tire with my husband. These are pictures of my going away present. Do they know me or what? Quilting gift card, manicure gift card. Yarn, hooks, fabric! wine, beach towel, Im all set! This gift of course brought many tears to my eyes, we all shed a few yesterday.

Froggy Bib


My lastest baby creation, Froggy bib. Not real crazy about it. Not a big fan of the embroidery. Well it looks as if he has a crooked smile! Like a planned it that way. For those of you who keeping asking when I get this stuff done, I truly dont sleep well. Oh I fall asleep ok, I just dont stay that way. So I wont lay there, I get right up and try to get something accomplished. Its my time. Crazy, I know.

Back in the saddle



Trying to get back into my routine. The weather is finally nice again, after a long long winter. YUK! I need to move farther south. Working on some pink things for my new grandbaby, coming in July! Im thinking she wont need a blanket and a hat in July! Found out Mom does not like pastel anyway. So back to the drawing board and more blankets and hats for charity. Close up of blanket, Tiramasu and simple soft yarn! I love, love love to knit and crochet with this yarn so soft and very nice when washed. Later Ya'll!

 Still sewing and creating.   This wall hanging/quilt was made at the recent quilt show in Lakeland Florida.  My mom and I attended and took...
