Happy Mother's Day!

Quickly Moving...

Things seem to be moving quickly with picking up a few orders and working on a Christening Gown set.  I've updated my spring/summer scarf items and am now making them in cotton...which makes perfect sense for this time of the year.

$25 or 3 for $60

I am finding myself more and more attracted to the bright unlimited colors that are out there.  I'm constantly searching the sales bins, pattern piles, experimenting with new fibers and I end up overwhelmed with wanting to attack all that I see and love!!  Who would have thought that crocheting could be all that...but it is.

Again I'll say...if there is something you're interested in, that is not listed on here or my Etsy site...please...send me a note and we can discuss the possibilities!  :)

I LOVE Shrugs!

I'm telling you, almost everyday I feel like heading in a new direction with crocheting!  I love it.  I made this shrug last night and now I'm in love with it.  My mind is racing with new colors and tweaks and beading and more textures...I'm excited to say the least.  This is a simple, versatile Sand colored Shrug.  It's cute as all get out and really...you should have one in your closet.  This would look great with a white tee and a pair of jeans.  This will come in Small/Medium, Large/XLarge and possibly plus sizes.  I hope you like.  Message me if you're interested in other colors.

New Additions for Mother's Day

The one thing I love about cozies is that they are easily changed to meet a customer's needs.  These are a perfect little 'extra' gift for your Mom, sister, aunt, or/and anyone else that has been special to you.

Opening Day! Go O's!

Mother's Day is Fast Approaching

April 2nd and counting down.  I am 2 cozies away from finishing up an order and what seems like a million more items... scarves, hats, boleros and fishnet gloves away from Mother's Day!  I'm a little overwhelmed at the possible projects I'd like to undertake for this holiday, but for the time being...I'll start with this sweetheart -

Mom's A Sweetheart Cozy

Finally...items within the tabs

It's so hard to believe that Easter has come and gone.  Spring (to me) is finally here.  I'm excited to see new greens, new leaves, flowers come to life!!

I'm home from eating pineapple dressing and lemon cake with sticky icing and am now plugging faithfully away at my blog.  I will attempt to get a few of the tabs filled in with the items I create to give you a quick view of my work.  In the meantime, you can click on the banner which will take you directly to my Etsy shop link.  I love it there.  :)

IF you have something in mind that you would like to have done...a custom order, don't be afraid to ask.  Just send me a message and we can talk about what you'd like me to do for you.

Well, back to work.  Peace to you!

Cake and Cozies

Lemon Cake with Sticky Icing

I can't believe tomorrow is Easter already!  It's amazing to me at how quickly this year is going.  I just put the final touches on a lemon cake with 'sticky icing'.  I had never heard of it before I was asked to make one for tomorrow's dessert table.  It sounded complicated..."boil water and sugar until it becomes 'thready' off the fork... beat into stiff egg whites for 10 minutes."  It.  Is.  Beautiful. I also received a Reserve request for 4 cozies with dragonflies from such a sweet customer.  I'll post them when they are ready to go.  I think they're going to be pretty cool.

Thanks, Gram

Mary Janes, in my shop

I recently began to change the direction of my shop on Etsy.  It's not that I was actually heading in one direction exactly, but just kind of experimenting in which direction I'd like to go.

I ended up finding myself rooting around in old boxes, trying to find a pattern or two to crochet.  I'm always amazed at how easy it is to get back to it.  I've been crocheting since I was 9.  My grandmother would sit me down and hand me a hook and 'wool' and teach me during my visits.

She's been gone for some time now and I often think about her when it's quiet and I'm trying to untangle a mess within a skein of yarn. Thank you for your gift, Grandma.

One Step At A Time...

As is Spring...I'm in the beginning stages of warming things up.  I'm eager to have you join me, so please come back and visit in a day or two after I figure out how to add tabs and anything else I can squeeze onto this lovely page!  I'll be eager to see what you think.

Peace,
Kim
