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!

A Request by One of My Girl Scouts Finished!
Happy Friday Crochet Friends!
A while ago I made an afghan with my family's assistance - they picked the texture/colors and I assembled it and made a square afghan that was so very pretty - sadly I didn't get any shots of it before I gave it away to one of my Scouts! That very night one of my girls made a request for an afghan of her own - her Mom told me Blue...pattern/size/style didn't matter just make it Blue...so I did and here's where it got tricky - my Hubby suggested I do a Chevron pattern lengthwise vs. Widthwise as it normally goes...so I chained out 400 and began the process, all in all it was very time consuming but so worth it! The results are simply amazing!
Let me know what you think

A Chevron Afghan that's Size Got Away From Me
Well Crochet Friends! Happy Wednesday!
I finally finished the 2nd Order in the Daisy Afghan Order set for Lori and I am very pleased with the outcome! Remember she ordered this
Well last night I finished hers and this is what I came up with
I am very happy with it - though the final size is the same size as a Twin Bed! Ah well, I prefer to finish an afghan with the same pattern I started, I don't like to finish 1/2 way through the pattern - so once I hit the end of the 2nd to last yellow top I measured it and it was too small - so I then added another white section and then the repeated pattern at the top and it got too big...she asked for Adult sized and well this is certainly adult sized!
I've sent the pictures to her and I am hoping she loves it as much as I do!
Now to finish the Blue afghan for my Girl Scout and while I wait for her 3rd request I am working on another scrapghan! It never stops does it?!?
Anyhew, have a Great Wednesday ya'll!

We're Expanding our Horizons...More Flip Flops...This time for a Little Boy
Happy Sunday Crochet Peeps!
Once I posted the pictures of the little Girl Flip Flops I made for a friend - another friend of the family requested a pair for her son Hunter and because I had leftover materials I cranked out a pair for him happily!
Only this time I opted for some boy oriented buttons on the side vs. flowers w/pearl buttons.
Hope You Love them as Much as the Mom Did!

One Project Done! Baby Flip Flops Are Done!
Ok I finished them! Took me a while - as these were a challenge for sure - the buttons were tiny, the hook was small, the yarn was tight - overall it was a challenge, but one I enjoyed!
Once again here's the pattern from Crochet Dreamz
Aren't they the Sweetest?!?!? I just love them!

The finished products - I do two pairs for a set of twins
