My friends,
I come to you again this year with the sad news that my cousin past away on Christmas day. We are so totally unprepared for this death. She fell and bumped her head and passed away the same day. I dont have a pic of her or I would put it up for you to her.
She was a one of a kind lady. I loved her very much. She will be missed. Her name was Divida. SHe babysit me and my sisters and brother when we were little.

Friday, December 21, 2007


My Friends,
I want to tell you how thankful I am to have such sweet friends as you all are. With my sister passing last week you have all sent your prayers. Thank you!
Well here is my tree this year. I didnt get very many ornaments up on it this year. My daughter Abbea came over and put it up for me. She is sweet that way! It still turned out cute , dont you think?



The cute little sachet is from eBay. Isnt it cute and it smells awesome. I have no idea what the smell is tho:) I bid a silly amount on this item and it came with a thimble and two small scissors. I think I got it all for less that 10 dollars thats including S&H. Its needlepoint and just so sweet. I think one of the things Im going to try and do next year is start (again)to shop at thrift stores. I miss the great deals I get on pretty things. Im trying to decorate my house again. When I moved in this house over 6 years ago I was in the middle of a dark point in my mind. I feel like God has lifted it and now I can see the pretty things again. I want to make my house a home again with pretty roses and angels and lots of crocheted lace:) Yipee here I go ashopping!
Ok have a very blessed CHRISTmas and remember why we celebrate in the first place!

Jerri Esposito


My friends,
Ive come to you today so you may see my sister Jerri and maybe you could say a prayer for her. She is now in the hospital and she is suffering. I would very much like you to pray that God will release the suffering and she could have peace. I know this is not the time to bother you all with this sad news but I know Jesus would love to hear from you at this time of the year not that He wouldnt love to hear from you any other time :) Please stop and say a small prayer for Jerri Esposito she is 50 this year and she has a very sweet little girl named Jenny. I love you all for your prayers and I pray that God will bless you and yours this time of the year and always. Im posting a pic of my sister that was taken a few weeks ago actually on Thanksgiving day this year.

Friends,
Im really sorry Ive been gone but my old computer died on me and now I have a new computer and Im having all kinds of fits getting it where I like it:) You all must know the feelings of loosing a old friend and getting a new friend.
I tried to add a pic of my Christmas hat so if it comes thru great if not then boohoo. Its a really cute hat I cocheted the flower it was so easy to make. I have no idea what pattern I used to make the flower.
Well I have started me Christmas shopping and Im just about done. And I did pretty much 98% online this year. All I have let to buy pretty much is my furbabies and my dear hubby. I have no idea what to buy hubby, Do any of you have any ideas for me?
Well happy shopping and crochet away.....

Happy Thanksgiving Day

Saturday, November 10, 2007


Heres a pic of the lady who made the biggest American flag I have ever seen. You can read her story here Athens Woman Crochets Oversize American Flag. Go check her story out it is very inspirational. I dont think I could ever make this flag I would have given up a long time ago.
Making afghans is not my best items to make. I get bored very easy doing the same repetitive item over and over again.
What have you all been up to anyways? Hows your Thanksgiving dinner coming along? This will be the first year that I will not be making dinner here at my house. My daughter Abbea is making the dinner this year. I know she will do a great job she has helped me for the past few years and now she has her own place so now it is up to her:) Oh the fun to just sit back and enjoy the day. I may bring my crochet and crochet away...
I have been trying to decide what charity here in Vegas to crochet for. Where do you all go to do your charity work. I think Ill ask the hospital if they need hats or anything for the babies and then maybe a senior center. Oh well Im bummed about the price of shipping it really puts a stop to my charity work for HooksnGrannies. What do you all do for charity work? Give me some ideas Im open for them.
Ok Im off here have a great day!

Sunday, November 04, 2007


Friends,
Heres my latest package off to Rhonda at Hooks N Grannies ,15 pairs of booties and around 20 hats. Oh yea 2 stockings for the stockings exchange. I finished my 60 scarves in 60 days with only 4 scarves made. Now I need to find were to send them too:) I was thinking maybe to the senior centers but I need to find out if they wear them there.
Ive been very slowly making a baby afghan. I dont know whats wrong with me Im moving so slow with it. Ususally I would have it finished in a week or more but its been 2 weeks since I started. HELP I need energy or desire something along those lines. :)
Christmas is just right around the corner I cant believe it is almost here. I have yet to even begin buying or even making my gifts yet. HELP! heehee Ill start as soon as I get my list from my darling grandchildren.
Well friends have a very happy day!

She has a little muff and she has fishnet stockings on her legs. They are so cute. Im going to see if she may still have the pattern for the doll. Id love to make a few for my grandkids.

Im doing pretty good



Well friends,


Im doing well since my mishap with the crochet hook:) What a farse that was! I still love my crochet hooks I have to tell you. Ive been crocheting 7inch squares for a friend of mine over at the Hooks n Grannies group. She had an accident and turned her ankle and she pulled all the tiny blood vessels and some how or another she got gangreen(sp?) so they had to amputate her leg from her knee down. So sad for sure. I pray she has a rapid recovery and that she copes with it all with Christs peace about her. We in the group decided to make her an afghan so she can cozy up with. The colors are blue and cream. Very lovely for sure. So now you know what Ive been up to. What have you all been doing?


I still have yet to get a new camera but I will someday. Im just being a little laid back about it and Im having a hard tome deciding on what to purchase. If you have a nyt suggestions write me ok? I need all the help I can get! heeheehawhaw. Im going to go through some pics of mine to post here and see how you like them oe of them is my baby Fifi's rearend,isnt she a doll? She thinks she owns the whole house I can tell you that!

Stabbed by my crochet hook

Friends,
I had a rather rough day yesterday. I took my mother n law to the doctor and I waited in the waiting room for her and I was crocheting flowers for my daughters wedding in thread. I was using a new hook that I had just purchased off eBay. I believe it was a size 8 steel hook with some beautiful clay wrapped around the handle. Then one of her doctors came to me and wanted to see me. The doctor informed me that my mohter n law has breast cancer again. And that my mother n law had decided not to fight it. My mother n law Ann went through a very hellish nightmare around 6 years ago to battle that terrible cancer. She did agree to have a biopsy and a pet scan to see how far the cancer has grown. I if you could please say a prayer for her. She is 73 years young and very stubborn.
Well back to the crochet hook. I just poked it into my thread ball and laid it in my purse. I put the purse on the floor of the truck and then proceeded to get into the truck then I put my leg right over the hook and got stabbed! In the left calf right above my ankle. YEOW that hurts. I have never hurt myself before with my hooks. SO plase ladies be careful.
Ok now you know what Ive been upto these days

Been keeping busy

Friends,

Ive been keeping myself busy crocheting. I know you just cant believe that but its true! I went yesterday and bought several skeins of Vanna Whites new yarn. Im going to try and make myself a little bag with the colors I bought. I got some handles from Jimbo a whole ago and I thought I would see if I could use them or not. I might not because they are rather woodsy and these colors just might not go with the woodsy look:) Hee hee Am I making my self clear? Nope I think not. Heres a pic I took awhile ago of a bag Im thinking of making. It was on sale on eBay and I tried to buy it but I lost out so I took the pic and thought I would try my hand at copying the pattern. What do you think. I did pick differant colors and Im going to make some differant insides. So it wont be exactly like this one Ill take pics and we can compare when Im done hows that?

On the camera idea I have yet to find one I want. There are so many of them out there to choose from. My daughter did show me how to take pics with my cell phone and load them up to the computer so Ill try that next time to see how that works out for me. Wish me luck:) heehee

Monday, August 13, 2007

Boo hoo






Friends,



You will not believe it but my camera has died! Yep Its gone. Now I need to purchase a new one. Now my issue is which one to purchase. Since taking pics for my blog here I know I want one that will take close ups and show details of my crochet. Now I just need to search out for the right one.



Now because I dont have a camera right now I wont have any pics for you to look at. Well except the last couple I have that I took before my camera died. So here they are.



The first pic is of my new crochet hook. I got it off of ebay and I just love it. It even came with a really cute wood ring as a thank you gift. It came from Costa Rica. And it came in its very own hand made wooden box, I just love it.



The second pic is a pic of one of my roses my daughter had me make up of her wedding coursage. She wants all her flowers to be crocheted. So Im trying differant things to make them look nice. She now wants to get married in Hawaii maybe aon a cruise ship. So I wont have to make as many:) heehee what fun!

Ok Ill be back again real soon camera or no camera. Ill let you know what Ive been up to crochet wise. Happy crocheting!!

Fingerless gloves and caps



Friends,


I did mention last post that I was making fingerless gloves for my friend Lisa. I gave them to her for her 41st birthday. She loved them! She tells me that she has the coldest hands so I hope this helps her out. I tried to make them in every color I had available. I used Caron Simply soft. I love that yarn it is so soft and very easy to work with. Comes off the hook like butter!


I know I mentioned too that I have been making Chemo caps for Hooks N Grannies group. I used my fun fur yarn that I bought when they clearenced alot of the fun fur out over at Micheals. I love the way the caps came out. I used CrochetWithDee chemo cap pattern. I love the pattern it is so easy and looks fantastic. Thanks Dee!


Ok well Im back to making baby booties so I can donate them with caps that Ive been making. I love Hooks N Grannies they keep me busy making little things for the babies out there. I do plan on making a few doilies I have planned for a few friends for Christmas gifts. So I need to go and check out whats out there in patterns.


Ok Im off to crochet! Have a fantastic day! And keep cool!

Monday, July 23, 2007


Friends,

Did you think I have abandoned you all? I havent Ive been so busy making those silly half gloves for my friend Lisa. She is celebrating her 41 st birthday here on earth with the rest of us. So I have made her a pair in every color I can find that I dont need to go buy more yarn:) haha

As soon as Im finished Ill take a pic so you can all see them all. And Im also trying to finish up on my chemo hats for Hooks N Grannies charity we are all doing.

Ill be back soon maybe Wednesday! Keep on crocheting! I know I will:) heehee

Saturday, July 07, 2007



Ive been keeping busy with my crocheting as of late. It has been so hot here in Vegas this past week. I dont think I could do anything else but crochet. It reached up to 118 here on Thursday they say it will get cooler now. I hope so.


Well I went and made the little sachet thread gift card holder into a yarn book/CD holder. I made one for my sister for her 50th birthday. She loved it. Here is a pic. My daughter gave me the idea to use yarn instead of thread to make it bigger and maybe put a book in the little pocket. It turned out rather cute I think.

Monday, July 02, 2007

sachets galore



Friends, Ive been on a whirl wind crochet making sachets. My daughter has asked me to make her bouquet for her wedding. I do have a pattern from Annies Attic and I made one of the roses on there. I tried making the rose with thread and it said to crochet with a H hook. But I know from experience that that was way wrong. So I used Caron Simple Soft and it turned out fantastic. I didnt want the other roses to go to waste so I put lavender oil in them and gave them to my daughter as sachets for her private drawer.

While I was crocheting away I found this pattern for half gloves and made them up really quick. They were really fun to make. I made 2 pairs in one day. They were that fast to make up. Im going to give a set to my friend Lisa she always has cold hands.

Ok go crochet:) And be happy.

Wednesday, June 27, 2007



Friends,

Here is a pic of my pug Chico, isnt he cute? I didnt have anything crochety to show you so I thought I would do a little intro into my world of pets. I have 3 dogs now that one has just passed. Chico came to me via my son. He had left his girlfriend and moved in with me. So when he went back the dog stayed:) heehee But boy o boy is this dog distuctive. But he is getting better. He lived in a cage most of his life and here at my house the pets a free to roam or do most anything . And he does take advantage of just that! But how can you turn down that face he is so adorable. I think hes a keeper( arnt they all?)

Ok Ill get back to crocheting. Did I mention a great new crochet along just formed? Its all about whatever you crochet if you want to join or just go and check it out here is the link:The Crochet Along. Happy crocheting !
