Winter! 02/03/2022

 Good afternoon all! Partially through our winter storm here and everything is covered in ice! I am so thankful for this. This past year, I've been reminiscing about how we used to have storms with freezing rain. And now we have it!! 



I remember when we would go see my grandparents and the headlights would hit the ice on the trees, just looked so magical! I know my family isn't as thrilled about it, except for my son since they are having snow days.

Anyhow, working on a new design. We are into the new year and spring is just around the corner. I've decided to use my Mandala yarn for a new pretty spring sweater. The colors...



As soon as I get a little closer on the design and pieces for it, I will share. So far, I'm liking how it is coming out. Maybe too much so, I've only changed the design four times as new ideas keep popping in my head. Oh, and I'm crocheting it.

Well, think I'm done sharing today. I want to get some more food prepped before we lose power. Take care and God Bless!

Pumpkins for Pam, New Pattern!

Hi all! It's been waaay too long since my last post!! But, I've been a bit busy here, working on my sewing machines and crafting (and gardening, selling eggs, kid out of school, getting ready for camping and so forth!!). I wanted to share this, my latest pattern! Since we haven't been able to have quilt guild meetings, a small group of us, after getting our vaccines, started to meet at each others houses. As a hostess gift, I started making during our meet ups, spool pin doilies. Since we all sew, I figured these would be great gifts and so far, well received. I usually just free hand a pattern while I'm there to make it more special to the person I'm giving it to. Recently, we went to a fellow guild member's home, Pam. Her home is so decorative! Throughout, it's adorned with pumpkins in some craft form. Quilts, quilted wall hangings, paintings, small felted accent pillows and so on. And I am a huge pumpkin lover! We all live near Circleville, Ohio, which is...

Spring Gardening & Products, 03/22/2021

  Good morning all! A beautiful morning here in Ohio, a balmy 58F degrees right now. I've been busy outside getting my garden ready for planting. I was able to get the additional 4 beds and just got them assembled this morning. Here is my current garden. Still cleaning and weeding yet, so don't mind the mess! This is the side view. Wanted you to see the nifty spigot with hose reel. I plan on getting another steel flexible garden hose. I haven't taken an inventory yet of the watering system, but pretty sure I still need to get more of the bubbler tops and stakes. We picked up a plastic walk-in greenhouse while we were out this weekend. I plan on putting it up this afternoon and getting my seedlings out there. I will add those pictures of the greenhouse later. Here is my seedlings so far. The cabbages on the far end are already an inch long! I was surprised at how quickly they sprouted. I also have a container, one like a little bucket that came with soil and tomato seeds and...
