Before and after

Finally was able to get a couple of phots of my granddaughter Emily. My son took these with his camera phone and I snagged them off of Facebook. Well I was seeing lot's of orange and that needed to change so to work I went. The after pictures has way less orange and is much softer.

Finally getting some pictures taken of my projects

Finally had a pretty day to take some of my things outside and get some pictures made. I am trying to get some of my ufo's finished. This is what I have so far

I finished and listed my first crochet pattern

At the local knit shop I got to they had a pattern for the knit artsy scarfy. I thought this was the cutiest thing so I came home and decided to make a few. Then I though how about a crochet version of this scarf so I called and asked ans she was excited about the idea. So here is the crochet version of the artsy scarfy and it is so easy and great for using up all that scrap yarn.

Want the pattern just click on the picture to go to my shop

Also my crochet pink anklet made it to a treasury

But it's not May yet

I get so tickled at my granny and mama when they say this. Back years ago you just didn't go barefoot till May. Now one thing about my granny she keeps a warm house and since menopause it is summer for me alot. It has to be really cold for me to wear boots or shoes that confine the foot as I am a flip flop and sandal kinda girl. I do their hair every week and I know that even in the cold months to dress for hot weather so one of the first things to go is the shoes and I will hear "aren't you cold?" You are not suppose to go barefoot till at least May

I just just laugh and tell them I am fine.

The changing of the tulips

Nothing motivates me more than a beautiful Spring day. I have to grab the camera and take some pictures then I come in and play. I have 3 red tulips that had opened and this is what I came up with.
