A NEW POLL HERE!!


Hello Again!

I have just put up a NEW POLL in my side bar for you to go VOTE on.

I am just curious as to which of the two choices of Cotton Yarn you prefer to Knit or Crochet your dishcloths with.

I personally use both of the cotton yarns listed. I think I tend to go more for the colors as opposed to which of the yarns are softer or thinner or fatter etc. Anyway, I was just curious as to what your Fancy was in the matter!----Thanks!

Have "Stitchin" Day!!

JANUARY DISHCLOTH KAL

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?
January First
Just in time for Superbowl!


LACEY DIAMONDS

This was new for me to learn. The picture doesn't do my cloth justice. It's pretty in a minty green and white twist.

BALTIMORE BLUES FABRIC

GO AHEAD CLICK ON THE PICTURE FOR A CLOSE UP OF THESE DELICIOUS COLORS!!

I'm starting a new quilt project called Baltimore Blues Applique Blocks. Only I'm not doing it in blues as you can see. I'm kind of going into the Purple world. I think I'm going to love it!

I love the fabrics that I finally decided on with the help of my friend Debbie Hansen who is the owner of a very cute quilt shop in Haddonfield, NJ called The Little Shop! I have been going to The Little Shop for 12 years and still love walking in the door to let my imagination go crazy!! So many selections of fabrics....so little time.....LOL!! Thanks Debbie for all your help!!
Today I will be washing all my fabrics and getting them ready to cut out the pieces for the January Block #1. I'll be sure to post it when I'm finished...stay tuned!!

DANICA'S SWEATER




I made this for my little grand daughter.


This is my first completed sweater! I made it with Bernat Softee Chunky Twists.


It was a simple pattern for my first time. I actually have another one on the needles now for her brother, in light tans.

NEW CAMERA

JUST A NOTE:

I have a new camera. I am shooting pictures everywhere learning how to use this and all it's features. The picture on my header of the flowers was my first picture I took. I loved how it turned out!! Maybe I will turn out to be a good photographer one day!!
I'm still playing with stuff like "am I too close or to far away?" or "is it light enough or not?" so for me it's kind of a trial and error in the learning process.

I will change out the HEADER picture monthly I think...as I hope to take some more cool pictures to share and decorate...

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY AND HAVING A LOOK!!
