Happy New Year!


Merry Christmas &
Happy New Year!!!

Whew where did December go?

Between the holidays and moving
(yes even on Christmas Day) it's 
hard to believe the New Year is upon us.

I hope everyone had a safe and 
wonderful Holiday Season!

I'm happy to be mostly unpacked
and back to crocheting.

On the hook for Project Linus
another ripple from 

Cheers!  I've got some crocheting to do!

Project Linus and the V Stitch



Couple thoughts that have been floating through my mind off and on
for many years, so I thought I'd share...

I've always wanted to do some kind of volunteer work but since I was
busy raising my own kids, I was selfish with my time.  Not a bad thing
just the truth!  Now that the kids are grown, the itch is still there and 
you know what that means....

I've incorporated my latest hobby into something that gives back to 
the community.  Yep, I crochet blankets/afghans for Project Linus.
This is a great way for me to volunteer anytime because I can crochet
anywhere; at home mostly but you can take it to the park, on the bus,
waiting for an appt. where ever, when ever!  Plus I can control my
volunteer time and donation.  To me this is a perfect fit!

So who gets these blankets/afghans???  Children!  From premie
newborns up to teenagers!  So for now, and maybe forever, I've found
my place to volunteer that fits my lifestyle and their needs.

Happy Hooking!

Project Linus & Raffle


Well I turned in the last blanket to 
Project Linus and got in the raffle for more yarn.  
Was lucky to get 6 skeins of light sage so 
I'm splitting it up and using 2 skeins 
in 3 separate blankets.  The first will have 
buff and burgundy with it, the second will have 
carrot and variegated aspen print and the 
3rd will have cream.  How exciting!!!
