I made these cute little icicle ornaments for my daughter’s Christmas tree. It seems that she doesn’t have any of my handmade ornaments and asked me to make her some. This is what I have done so far. Which is …
Another Thanksgiving gone by
I have to say that I really wish I knew where time was going. It seems like just a couple of days ago I was posting pictures and writing about Halloween. Now Thanksgiving has come and gone. I hope everyone …
FO Friday..a little early
I haven’t posted my finished projects in quite awhile…wow! Didn’t realize it had been that long. I was right, my dear daughter did not like the green cowl. She didn’t like the yarn, it wasn’t quite what she was expecting …
Ah…so the truth is out
I lead an extraordinary boring life! I started my little blogging experience a month ago and started out gangbusters with pretty little posts and pictures just as recommended. But noticed that I quickly started sliding downhill…I was lucky to post …
Skull and Crossbones Cake
My latest cake for a late Halloween party. Request came from a friend of my daughter’s, she seems to have fallen in love with my cakes. I’ve made a few for her now. This one was fun and pretty easy …
FO Friday — What did I finish this week?
Ok, seriously where has time gone? I was trying to remember if I even finished any projects this week…only one and that was early in the week. Obviously not much hooking time this week. I finally finished testing this Slip …
Can’t resist….T..I…double G..ER
I couldn’t resist showing off my cute little grandson. I’ve always had a fondness for Tigger and this little guy makes my day. Too bad he is about 1500 miles or so away from me.

So my son asked me last week if I would make something for his Halloween pot luck at work and of course I told him I would and promptly put it out of my head. So last night at 5 …
Another FO Friday!
It’s been a pretty busy hookin’ week this week. I actually accomplished quite a bit, still have tons to work on but at least I made some progress. This cowl is for my dear, dear daughter. She picked out the …
Rants – Why do people ask for constructive criticism and then get offended by your comments?
I’ve always wondered why someone asks the question “what can I do to make this better?” if they aren’t willing to keep an open mind and not take comments personally. They ask you to provide constructive criticism but are not …
Wow…FO Friday already?!
So I really don’t know where the week went, all of a sudden it’s Friday! I don’t think I’ve really accomplished much this week. Worked on a few crochet projects but only finished one 12″ square. Eventually it will be …
Does everyone think people who crochet are little old cat ladies?
I don’t understand why I am so surprised that not everyone loves crochet as much as I do. Silly people, don’t they know it is a great, relaxing and portable hobby? Crocheting while watching a movie keeps my hands so …

Steelers Birthday Cake
One of my daughter’s friends asked her if she thought I could make her fiance a Steelers jersey birthday cake. It had to be the black jersey….can you say purple tongue and teeth when they eat the black frosting? …
Finished Object (FO) Friday
So I’ve decided to designate Friday as Finished Object Friday to show off everything that I accomplished, or more probable, that I didn’t accomplish during the week. This week I only managed to get two things finished, the lovely Wells …
Apple Butter
Not only is it Blackberry Apple Jelly time it’s Apple Butter time. I can’t say that it is a favorite of mine but it is my mom’s and so I make it for her. Don’t get me wrong it does …
