Nothing Like a Wet Weekend,,


Well this past weekend was a very wet and windy weekend, that put all our BBQ plans to wash. We got hit with Tropical Storm Beryl. But all was not lost, I got alot of crafting done and it was a perfect weekend to do just that. I did a little of this and little of that, and it made my fingers oh so happy to be moving again. We watched a couple of movies, order pizza and just sat around chilling out. And this morning it is still here, raining like its never rained before. We definitely need this rain and my flowers and plants are loving it, but I really need it to leave by tomorrow as I have running around today and don't feel like getting soak doing it..So enough about that, I am back to stitching,crocheting,sewing and reading and I am back in my element, and with a bang, well enough talking about it lets me show you..

First up is my granddaughter 4th of July outfit I made her,,I am having a matching bow made for her to..


 Next up is my stitching I am working on and loving it. It is "Marys Best" by With thy Needle and Thread, there is a little sheep down by the girl, you can barely see it. I am stitching it on the recommended fabric 30ct, and using DMC threads.
 And this beauty I call my African violet afghan, I am crocheting it in the larkspur/teardrop pattern and I LOVE this pattern with these colors, I ran out of yarn so it is off to Hobby Lobby to get some more of their I Love This Yarn,,
 And last but not least, I crochet around this blanket, I will be putting this cutie in my Etsy Shop.

Well there you have it,, as I said I think I am back in my element. I hope you all have an awesome week, and I will be looking for what you all are working on. Also thanks for all who played in my giveaway, keep coming back as I have another giveaway in the making for next month..till then keep those fingers moving.

Hello Tuesday,,

Hello fellow bloggers,,
Hope you are having a very happy day,,hope the sun is shinning where you are at and the birds are singing,,I just have to tell you all, after living in Arizona for 14 years and seeing nothing but cactus and dirt, and then moving to Florida 2.5 years ago I am in awe, everyday I see something to be grateful for. I see Cardinals and Bluebirds everyday at my bird feeder. I see little grey squirrels running along the top of the fence or playing in my yard. I see my plants growing and blooming. Don't get me wrong AZ does have it beautiful points but when you have looked at brown for so long,,green is just amazing..and you know the best part,,it doesn't get to be 120 here. Today I started to make my granddaughter 4th of July outfit..the top is done and if I do say so myself it turned out cute. This is my grandson's last week at pre-school..he will be lost without his buddies, he really enjoyed going to pre-school and his teacher is so nice..Well I hope you all have a fantastic day..tell next time,,hugs and stitches

P.S. Dont forget to enter my giveaway, you have till friday.
