More Time at Home = Adding Some Volunteer Work to my List

Good Evening Crocheters!

It's been a while since I posted last and in the time I've been away I've been super busy!

I joined up with a group called Sea Trail Grandma's to crochet blankets, hats & toys for our local hospital's NICU, I've made two blanket sets + 1 teddy bear I am very proud of

They are very simple, but their intended recipients are extra special! I love the bear mostly because I did him without a pattern, just winged it and put him together!

Then I've also managed to make some hats for my Girl Scout Troop to wear in the Annual City Holiday Parade

Pattern Can be found on Ravelry.com - Click Image for Link

During all of this too I've managed to start 2 Christmas presents and finish one set for my family - I have a to-do list a mile long it seems LOL!!!

No sales at the Smoothie Shop yet, but there's been a lot of interest, which makes me happy!

Finding Inspiration

Happy Monday Crocheters!

Hope Everyone had a Fantastic Weekend!

We sure did - kept things quiet at home and for that I am eternally Thankful!

On this gorgeous Monday I sit at work in a windowless box and dream of projects I'd like to work on - I have two pending I need to go shopping for and then two more Daisy Afghans that are waiting for the client to return from vacation and then have surgery before I can get started on - so in the meantime I wait anxiously for my next orders from the Etsy Shop or even from someone on Facebook!

Until that time I dream and I dream big of new projects - new stitches to try - new things I haven't attempted before and I am thrilled to say the wish list is long...

Like I'd love to learn how to Cable Stitch in Crochet, sort of like this baby blanket I came across this morning

Isn't this the Sweetest?!?!?  I'd love to learn how to do this!

My next want to learn is how to make a sweater - I found this gem this morning as well

This is called the Genevieve Sweater, isn't it Gorgeous!?!?! I'd love to put this together!

I've spent a good bit of time this morning cruising through my favorite Crochet Website, All Free Crochet, picking out ideas, patterns, etc. The above were found on there along with several others I won't list here! But until I have the next daisy afghan order situated I'll have to just continue to cruise and work on my own projects once I finish my Etsy order!

Until then, Happy Monday Crocheters!
