Happy Mother's Day

 To my mother Dennie.  Love you very much.

Nubby Dishcloth Finish

I did another quick dishcloth.  This one is the Nubby Dish Cloth and what looks like bobbles are actually just triple crochets followed by a single.  Fast to make and easy to remember.  Also looks like it will be a great scrubber.

Quick Finish #2

Another quick dish cloth.  I was also led to this one by AllFreeCrochet.com and is called the Daisy Dish Cloth

Daisy Dish Cloth

The next time I try it I think I'm going to use two different petal colors just for the heck of it to see how it works.  It was an interesting pattern and it's quite big when finished, a little over 9" square.  Onwards....

Quick Finish

I found the pattern for the Lacy Petals Dishcloth through a link from AllFreeCrochet.com along with a few others and finished this one in about an hour.  I really like it and will be making more as I am determined to make all of my Christmas gifts by hand this year and need to get started NOW!

Jaliyah's quilt

Finally, I've finished Jaliyah's quilt.  Here it is:

Jaliyah Quilt label

It was very easy to put together and quilt.  I just wish I had worked at it more diligently so it would have been done earlier, but either way it is DONE!!!  Now to ship it out and on to the next project!

Makayla's Giraffe

This was a very quick gift for a new baby girl.  It was fun to make and very, very easy.  The pattern is from Red Heart and is the Little Crochet Giraffe.

New sewing table

The vast majority of my crafting supplies (fabric, machines, tables, etc.) are in storage behind a wall of stuff that would take a long time to get to.  And it's not going to happen while there is snow on the ground.  Also, I don't really have the room I need to use for one of my sewing cabinets.

So my husband surprised me big time on Friday with this new sewing table.  I saw it online and thought it would work perfectly for the space that I have (don't have) and the machine I'm using at the moment.  (I can't wait to get my Singer out and serviced)  I absolutely love it.  The well drops so the machine bed can be level with the table and it has a measuring tape right on the edge for quick measurements.  Here's a picture and I'm off to play with it.
