Hi ladies....I haven't posted lately but do try to keep up with all the chatter......

 

Without further ado.......the CASA....given to my BF for Christmas (sorry about the delay, I'm a terrible procratinator)

 

 

And my new grandson, Little Jeffery, born Jan 9th......7 lbs and 9 oz

 

:clapYour grandson is beautiful!!

your CASA turn out GREAT!!!

[Klutzandme]

Thanks everyone for the kind words.....and did you notice that the little guy is sucking on his fingers?.....lol

 

I have the urge to *gasp* do another CASA in greens.......what am I thinking? No I really did enjoy making the first one, and this would be for me so no hurry on finishing it.......hmmmmmm now to decide if I really want to.

[Krystal16]

Aaah, Laura Lee... if you did decide to do it, you could join me in the Row A Day CAL and just keep going a little at a time....

 

I need a few more people to wield the at....

Oh, my! Wow! Not me! Although I am considering doing the Lady of the Lotus again, but as a quilt this time. I'm going to take a break from the saltine sewing and make some preemie ghans this weekend.

Morning everyone. It's very gloomy here today. I think it has stopped raining though. It'd be a perfect day to curl up and crochet. But no, I'm stuck working. Stupid bills

:lol I'm think of doing one in greens too because my sister keeps saying to me "that casablanca is really sharp...bet that'd look good in green...yes I'd like to have one of those in green" Now how's that for a subtle hint?

 

Aaah, Laura Lee... if you did decide to do it, you could join me in the Row A Day CAL and just keep going a little at a time....

You'll be wielding it at me on either the 2nd or the 3rd. Depends on how much of a saltine frenzy I get into when we start the angel on Sunday I haven't done a new saltine project in ages!

Oh what a terrible waste of a perfect crochet day! Stupid jobs getting in the way of hooking

 

I've been up since 6:45 Early doctor's appointment. It was over quickly though so that's good. Now for some breakfast and to decide if I want a nap or not. My guess is yes

[Priszm]

Ohhh a nap sounds sooo good! I can't even do that after work. We're going to the hockey game tonight!

[Klutzandme]

No, not the bat!!!!!!

 

I think I will be finishing up a couple wips that I have first.

 

Crochet baby blanket for my son's Doctor- due in May

 

Knit baby blanket for no particular reason other that I liked the yarn...

 

And a work in mind is a knit cotton blanket for my bed. I might change it to crochet but I'm not sure yet.

 

And I have started a very long term project out of thread...I liked Cara's GT pattern so much that I have decided to make a table runner or table cloth out of this square...It's gonna be heavy but beautiful...I have about 40 or so made already, just haven't joined any yet.....

 

And about 20 other WIMS.....lol

[Skysmom]

Thank you all for your concern about my health. I love ya'll.

Hi Tabby! I hope you're feeling better.

Oh, the Casa would be gorgeous in greens! Since Cara's sister wants one, you could both make one at the same time.

 

Oh, my! Wow! Not me! Although I am considering doing the Lady of the Lotus again, but as a quilt this time. I'm going to take a break from the saltine sewing and make some preemie ghans this weekend.

You are smarter than me. I'm going to have the Penguin and Angel going at the same time.

 

Ohhh a nap sounds sooo good! I can't even do that after work. We're going to the hockey game tonight!

Hi Val ~ have fun at the game.

[Skysmom]

Yep! You and Laura Lee can make a green Casa at the same time. I hope everything went okay at the doctor's.

[Misa]

Laura Lee - The GT would make a very nice pattern for a table runner I think Wendy made a HUGE tablecloth for her mom using the square and it's lovely!

 

Howdy Miss Mary! Won't be doing that green Casa any time soon that's for sure. But I sure am itching to start the angel Doctor went very well. He thinks this numbness I've been having isn't neurological He thinks it's just the fibro. But gonna have an MRI and an EEG just to make sure because I'm sort of having seizure symptoms again Time will tell but I feel much better after seeing him Thank you so much for asking

 

Off for a nappy poo now

[Skysmom]

Cara, I'm so glad the dr. was able to ease your mind a bit! Hopefully, the numbness will go away soon.

 

Okay, back to the desk...DH is home and we have a "system" for dealing with MIL's paperwork and his expense accounts for work. Gee, almost like it was when I worked as his Office Manager and did the books - except I got paid then.

[judianne]

Oh, I never thought of making the square in thread...I'll bet that looks beautiful!

Pictures, please;)

Some recession busting tips (which have been used even when not in recession ), when children get bored with their toys or outgrow them, the box they get kept in, is just as much, if not more, fun.

Oh I love that square and it would look great in thread. Remember to leave a long enough tail to sew them together with.
