Aunt Pitty Pat's Swap

I finaly have had the enrgy after being sick for a few weeks to finish the third wreath in the series for my boss. This is from the pattern Spring Tulip Wreath from crafting with Lillie Mae, I also added a butterfly froma pattern from Blue Moon Internation. Brenda if you still look on here hope you like it !!!!

I am sorry I have been away. I have been having trouble with my old car accident injuries. I have recently begun to have pain in my shoulders and down my arms into my hands. The PT Doctor seems to think I have some entrapped nerves that run down my arm. It starts at my neck and runs the entire length of my arm into my hands. Most days I don't feel up to much. I just wanted my readers to know where I have been. 

 

** I will try and visit the blog every few days to post your comments **

Valentin Cutie !!!!

This is a doll I created for one of my Yahoo groups. The pattern is Amelia from Red Dirt Primitives ......

I am a bit late..

Hello everyone.. I am still running behind but I thought I would show you my Christmas Stocking that I made for my Annual Christmas Swap... I had a great time making this little guy. I used variegated, and silver threads on it. I have to admit.. I made a mistake on it.. I discovered the mistake when I edited the photos. I didn't even notice until it was already in the mail. Do you see the mistake??

OH well makes it all the more one of a kind :O) 

I hope my partner loved hers.. I was very excited when I received my exchange from her :O)
 I will modify this post soon to show all of you her lovely stocking!

I also made a fun craft apron for my daughter out of used jeans.... The center pocket has a zinger to attach your scissors and the pocket is to keep them tucked out of the way when not in use ;O)

Scarves

Last time I visited I showed you some hats I made. Today I have a stack o'scarves to show you.

The purple and pink edged scarves are fleece and the rest are flannel.  When I started making them I used this tutorial but after a couple of scarves I started making them like burp cloths. The burp cloth way was much easier and quicker.

Most of the scarves were sent off to the nieces and their kiddos in Missouri and Tennessee  and I have a few left to go in the shop. I bought tons of fleece and flannel when JoAnn's had their Black Friday sale so I can make more when I feel the urge.

Crocheted Cuddle Sack

I haven't been on in a while but just had to show you the

little cuddle sack that I made for my new grandson!

Hands have been bothering me, but I was determined

to finish this before Christmas and I did it!!!!

Isn't it cute???

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
