Valentines Day candy pouches!

I crochet some candy pouches for some of my Special Valentines!
I have so many I had to start making them early!

Crochet Pouches filled with goodies!
Some of my favoritie Valentines go to yarn nite!




Calendar Girls!

Monika, Erika and I had a craft day at my house and we made Calendar Girls,  Rich helped out by making the bases out of wood and we made sure to dress them up cute!


Erika's, Monika's and Dee's

Sampler Quilt !!!

My Friend Renee and I took a beginning quilting class in Fallbrook at the Quilters Cottage, It was a six week class but we learned so much, there were only two of us in the class so talk about individual instruction, we loved it!

I purchased these fabrics long before I thought of making a quilt, I just loved the material, so now that the quilt is done I truly love it!

 
 
Makes me smile just to look at it!
 

Felted Owl!

I know that owls aren't usually this colorful, but I couldn't help making this little guy with every color of roving I had.  He's kinda Kooky looking, but I like him!
I'm a hoot!

Beaded Key Chains!

I love beaded crochet, so I came up with these beaded crochet key chains.  They are fun, don't take as long as the bracelets and who wouldn't these are cute?

Crochet close pin girls

I made these close pin girls quite awhile ago, but thought they needed to spend some time on my blog along with my other creations.

they're singing!

A new Christmas Purse for someone special!

Rich picked out the fabric himself (yes picture the scene, he was actually going up and down all the fabric isles looking for something special) for this cute little purse I made for his mom's Christmas gift.  I'm sure she will enjoy it!

Felted Snowman!

My friend Bonnie and I took a needle felted snowman class at Paper Tales. It took all day long, but everyone there went home with one of these cute little guys!

Christmas Cake!

for a work Christmas party cake walk!  yum.

Chilly day Beret!


My beautiful niece Monika is modeling the beret I make for this winters chilly nights.  I made up this pattern from looking at a store bought beret that a friend purchased.  I like my version and its cozy!

Wire Christmas Angels

A friend gave me a picture of wire angels and asked if I could make these,  these are my version of these cute little girls!

Bracelets with beads!

Just add Faces!

My neighbor Cindy and I had quite a time creating this spooky scene for all the Halloween fun we always have in our neighborhood. 

Rich gave us a canvas tarp, Cindy came up with this cute scene and drew it on and I painted it, we love our finished project and everyone had fun with this, even our random trick-or-treaters. 

Wonder what we will come up with for next year, maybe a haunted house!

A super spooky Pair!

and here we are,
                   don't make us scare you!
