So I guess this is my #2 stash buster blanket. I wish I would of had more of the variegated I search every where and I couldn't find it, I don't even know the name of it, it measures 44 x 76. #3 was made with a tote bag and a half of just scraps of yarn. It turned out kind of pretty considering it was just a simple HDC all the way thru, I started it in December and finished in January it measures 69 x 79. I am thinking it is going in the camper,<br />

My goal this year is to make a new blanket for each one of our grandchildren. We have 4, 1 girl and 3 boys. Actually that will be changing in July as our youngest daughter is expecting another boy. Little miss Tatum was a bit disappointed that she wasn't getting a girl cousin. oh, well I do believe she will enjoy being a little mother hen with this little guy.<br />
<br />
I will post again later today<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I will just give you a peek at my WIP since it's Wednesday. I almost am done with it. I begain working on it right after the new year, it is just so pretty I don't know what I am going to do with it. Some lucky little girl in the family I suppose. </div>

I just think it is just so pretty. The orange really isn't that bright, just my goofy camera. I hope the picture turns out better when its all done.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My great niece Amanda wanted a slouchy beanie. Let me tell you I have to admit it is the ugliest thing I feel I have ever made. She wanted purple and orange, what a combination. I have made tons of hats and this was my least favorite, just wasn't crazy about the pattern at all. </div>

I have been able to make it big enough to put on our king size bed for extra warmth this winter.<br />
Now I don't know what to do. I want to make a blanket and have plenty of colors in my stash so I need not to by any yarn, I just don't know what pattern to do. There is just so many beautiful patterns out there, darn Raverly and Pintrest. Any suggestions?<br />
I have never done any that you have to sew together, but would like to try. Just don't know if I have the patience to do all that piddly work. <br />
Maybe I will have to wait till my little granddaughter comes and let her pick a pattern, I don't know.<br />
Happy Crocheting<br />

Kinda of a grey day here in southern Minnesota. At least the wind isn't blowing for a change and I guess I should be happy that it hasn't snow. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I said in my last post I have been making things to take down to your local craft shop to sell. </div>

Slippers are a good item for me along with the Nook covers and little girl satchels. </div>

There is a cute little shop in our town called Enspired the young gal that opened it had a great idea.<br />
She takes things from local artist and adds a percentage for herself. So I have been busy making things to put in her shop.<br />
My niece asked me if I could make a zebra hat for her little one, the little peanut born early sure has grown. Here that little doll is.<br />

I actually pretty much winged it. I used the pattern I used last yr for the regular earflap hats, then just looked at other pictures of hats and went from there. Turned out pretty good. Except I made the mistake of not writing it down so I don't know if I could ever do another one like it, maybe similar.<br />
<br />
<br />
I will get my other stuff posted shortly its on my camera and I seem to have misplaced it. Humm.<br />
You all have a wonderful day.<br />
Happy Crocheting<br />

However this week has been a real roller coaster ride. Friday morning I have to go in for breast biopsies 2 to be exact and I am getting very nervous as the time gets nearer. If I could ask for some extra prayers from you would be wonderful.<br />
Thanks my friends.<br />

Our local Pamida store is closing and becoming Shopko Hometown, guess it's suppose to be a little different then a regular Shopko. I hope they carry yarn or I will have to leave town just to get a skein of yarn. However, I doubt I should need to get any for awhile. I got a super deal with the store closing I was able to by yarn at 70% off what a deal. I bought 34 skeins off yarn Red Heart super saver, red heart shimmer and red heart soft baby step and get this I only paid $47.48 that a average of $1.42 per skein. Here's my recent stash.<br />

I have been doing a little experimenting and I decided to try and make a little bag for my niece's birthday this wkend and this is what I came up with. I am pleased the way it turned out, I think she will like it. I am going to put a few little goodies inside. I wish my camera would make the colors more true, so frustrating. The colors are RH shocking pink and petal pink. I was going to crochet a flower also but I found the big star button and beads in my stash of goodies.</div>

I love it. Happy Birthday to me.... The Crochet hooks I just love, I didn't think I would be talented enough to make my own so I searched the Etsy's shops. I think the Hook Rack is so neat it's made out of cedar. Kinda of reminds me of my dad's pipe rack he had many years ago. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Etsy shop is <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/CraftyLadyQuiltLady">The Crafty Lady Quilt Lady</a> if your interested take a peak.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well I think the sun is finally going to try and shine and I so want to try and get the rest of my garden planted and my flowers, something that has kinda of become a ritual on my bday, usually by then we are past the frost stage. Gotta love Minnesota.</div>

First of all I came across a small mountain of the cream and sugar yarn. Look I got 13 balls for a bargain of $4.00 that is 13 cents a piece. :) :) All brand new full skeins.. :)<br />

When we were stationed overseas, I started to collect nesting dolls, some people call them stacking dolls. I have ones from Poland and Russia, some I am not sure probably China doesn't matter to me I just love them. I found a very pretty set in my favorite color for only $1.00 I couldn't be more lucky. Here she is.<br />

Here is a couple pictures of the rest of my collection, I took them all out of the cabinet and tried to get them in groups pictures aren't the best but you will get a general idea.<br />

Hum, maybe that will be my next investment.<br />
Our March in Minnesota has been so nice that I haven't made much progress on my wool-eater blanket, just been outside to much.<br />
Well hope you all have a wonderful weekend if I am not back before then with another post. I did have one more fine on my hunt for goodies but I am going to save that for another time..

The wool-eater, so I decided to join the Wool-eater 2012 CAL<br />

I wanted to do the oblong one originally but for some reason it wasn't working for me so I switched to the square, and it's coming along just fine. It's never to late to join. Have a wonderful day.<br />

Well I finished my latest baby blanket. Just in time also, my<u> little</u> great niece Mykenna arrived early on February 17th. She weighed in at a whopping 4lb. 9.5oz. I did say little. I haven't been able to go see her yet. I am hoping this weekend. <br />
I can't wait to meet her..<br />

I have been busy trying to catch up on all the little things I keep putting off. This little round ripple was made for my great niece Abby. She's a yr old already wow the time flies. I wanted to put up a picture of the other baby blanket but of course my batteries are dead, so I decided to show you Abby's. Also finished my giant granny blanket.<br />
I am having troubles deciding what to make next. I have so many things I want to do.<br />
Congrats to Debi. on your award way to go.<br />

I have had alot of sick time of flu, bronchitis and fibromyalgia flares. Hoping I am done now that everything happened one after another.<br />
I am looking for a reversible ripple pattern. I seen it in a magazine and now I seem to have misplaced it or it got thrown away. I would appreciate it if someone had some to share.<br />
I will try and get some pictures up in the next day or so of what I have been able to do in the last month or so.<br />
Have a great day everyone.Elaine B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/12013723180321961625noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8601991249946097941.post-3712904902150164022011-11-21T13:40:00.000-06:002011-11-21T13:40:29.423-06:00Update on baby blanketFirst of all Thank You Debi Y., after I posted my hats I seen her post and she mentioned me.

I have discovered some many neat things that I want to try and make. This pattern came from <a href="http://hooksandyarns.blogspot.com/">http://hooksandyarns.blogspot.com/</a><br />
It was different I had to give it a try. Colors aren't very true must be my lighting. The variegated is call bikini, hot pink and yellow. It's alot prettier in person.<br />
Have a wonderful day, and a Great Thanksgiving.Elaine B.http://www.blogger.com/profile/12013723180321961625noreply@blogger.com9
