I have one of them finished - in grey. It is the Hexagon sweater done in granny square stitch and it is really very easy. After folding and joining the 2 hexagons at the back and shoulders you add length around the bottom, if needed. Then I added a crochted trim. There are many hexagon sweater patterns on Pinterest and the Internet, but some are more difficult than others. I am working on another in variegated denim blues yarn. Here's a picture of the grey.

Beautiful scarf Carole and sweater Linda. I admire those who can knit and crochet. I cannot do either! Denise, your storge cabinet is awesome!
I sew on and off on the machine. lily June is older now and too hard to sew for, she likes to pick out her own clothes with her mom. I'm still keeping a scrapbook for her. I have 3 so far filled up from birth to now. I have a lot of pages of her school years so far. I really enjoy it.
I think she will love them when she is older.

That page is so cute, Connie! She will treasure those when she gets older. Does she look through them now? |

Just got these quilts back from the longarm quilter 2 weeks ago. On my bed, but still need to add binding. I love the way they turned out.

Thanks, everyone.
I worked on it off and on between orher projects, so not sure of the timeframe. But I just made 24 more blocks for a body pillow sham and I made them in 3 days, so 24 in 3 days computes to 144 in about 6 days - give or take. |

My DH and I have been on the road to Indiana and Michigan for 2 weeks now. I brought yarn and knitting and crochet needles with me (and bought some more here) and have made 2 smallish crocheted bags, finished 2 knitted cowls (except for adding buttons to one and sewing the ends together for the 2nd), am working on a crocheted cowl, and got yarn at a small "booth-type" shop for some more crocheted scrubbies ($3 for 4 new skeins that usually cost over $3 each). Still have yarn for 1 or 2 more cowls; I have started 2 and ripped them out because I didn't like how they fit.
Here are the 2 bags I've made. I got the pattern when I visited with MJF farmgirl Hannah Frankowski (GinnyBelle) in West Lafayette, IN, over a week ago. I've also included a picture of us standing in front of their garden.
