I have found my place!
Wednesday, May 30th, 2007In keeping with the growing success of Heather’s crochet lessons, I have to share two recent projects that I’ve completed because I’m just so stinking excited about them. For anyone that knows me knows I get bored very easily, so the fact that I am sticking with this is amazing in itself and I really do feel that I’ve found my niche in the crafting world.
I made this blanket for a good friend of mine who is due with a little boy at the end of the summer. I found this yummy yarn at Hobby Lobby and fell in love with the colors and how rustic they are. I love this blanket and I loved working on it mainly because it’s going to someone I really care about. I won’t lie and say I didn’t think about keeping it for myself because it’s really big and the perfect, most yummiest lap blanket it would make, but seeing Amanda’s face when she opened it was worth it.

This next one is a bag I made for another good friend of mine for her birthday. The applique turned out completely different than I had imagined it would, but I still liked how it ended up. And it was another gift that as I look at this picture now I think, “I really liked that - I should’ve kept it.” It’s okay tho - I love giving gifts so it’s great that I get to give pretty things. Well…most of them are pretty anyways.


That’s all I can show you for now. The next few weeks are birthdays upon graduations upon anniversaries and I am making stuff as quickly as I can, but I can’t post pics until all the beauties are handed out. I absolutely love crocheting and if it’s something you’ve been wanting to learn, check out Heather’s crochet lessons and learn finally. You may find that it may be your niche, too.
