Poncho

I made this for a recent poncho exchange. It came out so lovely I had my darling(although silly) daughter model it.
I used Caron Simply Soft in plum wine. I got the pattern from a blog called "knotty by nature". VERY easy and it works up really nice!!

The eggs were a major butt pain, in the end it was worth it. Isn't it pretty?

New Supply Site!!

I happened upon a great site for craft supplies! Not only does she have stuff I haven't seen elsewhere, but her prices are GREAT!
Who says you can't get personalized service via the world wide web? Check it out, you will not be disappointed!

I did it!

I'm so excited!

With the help of the most awesome crochet tutor I managed to complete a real doily! My very first!

Thread is very intimidating to me and the very small hooks were almost impossible to see, add to that a pattern without row counts and I was completely lost and very close to throwing in the towel.

Enter Barb, my pal in Michigan from atmyhouse who volunteered to "help". Then the fun began we got together on yahoo messenger and she actually worked the pattern with me, counted the rows and made it possible for me to finish ( as well as catch a few boo-boos along the way and I only had to frog once :o)

It was like a true CAL (crochet-a-long) isn't that exciting?

Take a look at my finished piece, which is now on it'a way to Barb!!!

I know she'll appreciate it because she knows how hard I (we) worked and was so proud I finished! I hope she loves it and when she looks at it, remembers the fun we had!

Love ya Barb!!

Secret Buddy!

I participated in a "Secret Buddy" exchange. I received my package today!!

I was thrilled with all the goodies I received from this talented lady. I can't wait to find out who she is so I can really thank her!
