Wanted To Share...(BRAG)...About My Crochet Projects!!!


































Hello everyone!!!

Yes...I know...Its been awhile again...never seem to have time for FUN things anymore!!

I have finally got these crochet pics put together for you all...

I made 5 Afghans for Christmas presents...PHEW!!! It sure was a lot of work... 

And a few tree ornaments to go along with the blankets...Oh...and a couple of Toques too!!!

The creamy white blanket was for daughter Lissa...

Grey mix was for daughter Erika...

Purple and green was for Miss Vivian...

Yellow...green and blue was for Miss Nora... 

Blue mix with some tan was for Master Kingsley...

I also crocheted some matching stars, that they could hang on their trees...

The Mid Century looking ones were for my son Ryan...who loves ANYTHING Mid-Century....

I made the Gnome with the red hat for Erika...and a Skull for my Lissa...who loves anything with Skulls!!! :o) 

It was a lot of work...but very rewarding...and it kept my brain occupied!!

The last pic...shows one that I started a few weeks back...for ME!!!!

There are a lot of new and different stitches in it...challenges me!!

     SO...the weather has been kooky so far in 2020...warmer than normal...hardly any snow where I live in Southern Ontario...

      As we did not get to go to Florida this Winter...this weather is just fine with us!!! 

    I celebrated a milestone birthday last week....70!!!!!!!!!!

I do appreciate all the well wishes on IG...I will definitely get a few pics put together for a blog post very soon.....

        In the meantime....hope you are all well...

             Thanks for hanging in here with me....

                   See you all soon...

                          Cheers! :o)

                               linda
