Just a basic shell pattern...Prayed while i was crocheting it for the person who will wear it....Lots of love and hope in every stitch...

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend..

I stared early this year making scarves...Some have been mailed already..These were knitted..Its the only thing i can knit, scarves..
Right now crocheting hats, not to go with scarves though..

The fire devastation going on in southern cali is horrendous..Every year I am scared beyond beleif...We are so dry here! A few years ago we had a horrible fire here in the county and some people are still struggling through...I hope the fires get put out soon, I pray so..

Happy September to everyone out there..

thanks for stopping by..

July

Happy July everyone...Haven't been here in a while...I am still crocheting and now found a new passion for knitting scarves...Let me just say i don't knit, but i can knit scarves..lol....I find it relaxing also, but crocheting is still my fave..
Its been hot here lately, and i just don't do well with heat...I will do a few rows and then have to put my project down, cause i get so hot..
Right now I am working on a prayer shawl, its coming along nicely, but slowly...Its for a friend going through a bad health crisis right now..I want her to know that i am thinking of her and praying for her to be healed..I hope the prayer shawl brings her some comfort..Hopefully will take a pic when its done..
In between, knitting the scarves..I want to get an early start on scarves and its something you can do in the heat..
I hope you are all enjoying summer..
Peace and Love to all.

someone asked me what was on my hook, well here it is, baby hats.
Its a great weekend for crocheting baby hats...This batch is going to childrens hospital and hopefully Stitches from the Heart..
Also working on some scarves...There is always a need for scarves also..
Its been a nice weekend here so far..Its not hot, its not cold, just right..
I got some groceries early this morning, dont like going when its late in the day, when there are lots of people shopping..So going before 8 am works for me much better..
My friend came by and brought some potato salad, and i gave her a bag of lemons...We visited a while, and all to soon she had to go..
I gave her some yarn, she wants to try to learn to crochet..

Happy Memorial Day everyone....
I wish you a happy and peaceful day...

Happy Mothers Day

Mothers day is always a difficult day for me...My mom was my anchor, my solace...I miss her daily...I have many memories of my mom that i cherish every day..I am happy she was my mom....

Have a great Mothers Day my friends...

May you have peace in your day and hope in your heart...

Good Wednesday morning...Its finally cooled down today...Its been so hot, i cant stand hot weather....
Its windy and cloudy today and i am loving it...
Yesterday i went to run some errands, went to the post office to drop off some baby hats, then to the pet store for some food, and flea meds...I had a coupon for a free flea med, so of course i couldn't pass that up...The vet is inside the pet store, so that's even better..

I cant believe how fast the months are going...Its almost summer again...
I am crocheting a big throw for top of my bed so Ruby wont dirty my bedspread..It will be a while, since i am doing other things also..But its coming along nicely and its going to be colorful...:-)

Well i leave you with a pic of a blankie that i did for a friend of a friend..She is expecting her first daughter in a few months, and i am hoping she will like the blankie..I know of allot of people who don't like homemade items, but i am hoping she will..

Thank you for taking the time to visit..
Love and peace .
