New to my Esty....

I've been a blog slacker the last week or so but I've been busy crocheting lots of bigger orders for Christmas and Photographers. I'm so excited because I set a goal for my November Sales and we'll I never thought I'd actually reach it and not only did I but a little more and the end of the month and busiest shopping weekend isn't even over. I'm just so thankful for all of my customers and for those of you who have encouraged me to keep going!

I thought I'd share a few new crochet items  I tried while traveling this week.

First - My Mom of Posh Pooch Designs writes lots of patterns and I get the honor of testing them! She recently wrote two new pattern for a mobius scarf and fingerless gloves. These patterns or finished product can be purchased in the etsy shop we share

I used my favorite pattern for the Beanie - Divine Hat. the yarn is called Gelato stripe by I Love this Yarn! The colors are just so fun I love the pops of orange and green! If you interested in purchasing the set shown it's ready to ship and can be found here

I also tried something new it's a flower hot pad or trivet ! Inspired by peppermint! I don't think I did it exactly like the picture showed but I like the way it came out either way! I'll definitely try it again! 

Have a great weekend everyone! Don't forget everything in my etsy and artfire shops are 10% off through Monday!

Precious Memories

Today marks a bittersweet day. It's been 3 years since my Grandmother on my Dad's side lost a long battle with cancer. I spent many summers with my grandparents as a young child. I have fun memories of learning to swim, bad hair cuts and perms, one great summer in South Carolina, good times on road trips and her love of crochet. She always crochet lovely dresses for dolls, blankets. I remember seeing many crochet afghans in her closets and thinking I wish I could do that.

I have several afghans that my grandmother made me. One was for me when I went off to college. It was my favorite to curl up in with long nights of homework. Another afghan that is very special to me is one she made for my first born Ayden. I was 8 months pregnant when she passed away but she finished that blanket just for him even though she never got to meet him. I will always cherish it. I didn't get to go to funeral because it just wasn't safe for me to travel that far that late in the pregnancy. I wished I could have gone! She has a wonderful big family I would love to have met, but  I'm glad I've gotten to know a few of them through facebook. 

I say all that today because I think even though it was my mom that taught me to crochet I'm sure the desire started from seeing all the works my grandmother created. I'm so thankful I come from a craft family and I hope to teach my little Calleigh to crochet someday :)

I praise the Lord for the hope of Salvation and because of that Salvation I will see her again in Heaven some day. Love you Grandma!
