Older Projects Bring Back Memories

Good Saturday Morning Crochet Friends!

Have you ever dug through photos of your old projects and remembered each and every single one of them? I did that this morning and did it bring back memories of each and every single one of them!


Like this baby blanket I made for the receptionist at my kids after-school program, I loved putting it together for her and trying to create a pattern I thought she'd love!


And this Black & White chevron I made for our wonderful neighbor! He takes such good care to ensure our yard is mowed, he's always bringing us food, etc. it was the least I could do for it! He's also super involved in our local POW-MIA group and those are the colors of that group! Win-Win!


Or even this dual-colored blue square blanket I made for my son, at his request, he wanted a blanket of his own, so we decided on these two shades of blue and I came up with this beautiful square pattern! He still has this on his bed today - near 2-years later!


Then there was this gem I assembled for my daughter, our biggest Washington fan in the house, her after school program has them carry cards that they scan in and out for attendance - I put this together one night for her so she could carry hers in style!


Then there was this project - this one seriously got away from me in terms of size...WOW I never expected it to get as big as it did when I was making it - to give you and idea our bed there is a king-sized bed and that afghan takes up the entire thing! I didn't have a purpose for it, so I gave it away to a friend from high school for her teenagers room.  Last I heard she loved it!


Last but certainly not least a tri-colored chevron afghan I made with all intentions to sell - though it didn't - and now it has a home with my Parents! I use it whenever we go visit them! I love this Chevron with these colors!

It's amazing the rinse and repeat of patterns I use and the variety in which things can be made!

Happy Saturday Friends!

We're not Just Afghans

Ok there I said it...I do so much more than just afghans, though it seems to be my specialty - I have updated my shop to include these wonderful new items I put together in 2014

A Minnie Mouse Themed Baby Blanket with Matching Hate

1920s Flapper Girl Style Hat with Matching Scarf

Redskins Themed Baby Blanket with Matching Hat

Roses

Roses Up Close

Along with the Afghans I adore making I also enjoy assembling items that are more than just afghans.  I started my Crochet hobby by making Hats & Scarves for my kiddos - they were very basic, but served their purpose and everyone at their school just ADORED their matching sets LOL!!

So when my Hubby asked me to make some Roses for his Grooming clients I jumped all over that and immediately went about learning how to make them - voila Roses! I have made several dozen roses at this point and just love doing it!

So hop on over to my shop and see the new additions I've added today!
