Thanks for the link Judy.  That is really cute.

Bailey4 I love the farm thing.  They are going to have a ball.

Here is the doll I have been working on.  I was unable to do 2 things like the pattern.  One is the hair.  It was just to confusing.  2 was the sculptured face.  I envy anyone who can.  Of course I made the doll in thread instead of ww.  I was sooooooooooooooooo big in ww yarn.  Well, here is my doll and here is the original.

 

Mary Jo, I'm amazed that you were even able to make the arms sculpted like the original....that's really a wonderful job! I think whoever gets her will love her to pieces!

Cute doll. The dress is gorgeous also!

[Tampa Doll]

Thank you all.  I am now making a pig to join her in the box.

76 by 48 Sweet Pea blanket. So soft 😍. Going to my 25 yo goddaughter

[segi1974]

Judy your blanket is very pretty.  I do the love the colors

 

[greyhoundgrandma]

Judy, I didn't like how the stripes/colors looked on Attic24's site, but when you see the whole blanket they look great! I'm very tempted to buy the yarn pack now.

I've finished a couple of things on my list. A baby blanket for DH's niece who had a little boy in January and a lap throw for the nursing home.

Love the afghans and lap throw.  They are so pretty.

Here is my pig.  He is suppose to be kneeling, and he is to have wings, but I decided to leave them off.  Right now he is in Ami Ville, but he should be going to AZ.

Love the baby blanket and the throw.

Maryjo the pig is so darn cute.  Like I said in the other post he has personality.

Great work, everyone!!!

And thanks for the compliments...there are many versions of Lucy's Sweet Pea afghan on her blog as well as FB pages...many of us weren't sure, esp as the greens took over on  the colorwash version in the beginning, but there are so many ways to use the colors, it will never be boring!

Hello fellow crocheters! I am crocheting a rug for my daughter. Originally the pattern was for a blanket and suggested dk yarn. I made it with diva live makrome. It is rather tiring because I changed the yarn. The pattern looks nice though. So the weight might be right, the look might be similar but the feel is definitely different. I will try to post pics asap. 

[judianne]

welcome, nan!

That sounds like a true labor of love....sometimes projects are more labor-intensive than we thought, but the outcome is always worth it! Looking forward to seeing the finished product💞

I made four scarves for the GDs this week. Mixed and matched two patterns and two yarns so they're all different.

Different is good....no arguments over whose is whose..  smart Gram!!

Here's the ghan I've been making. Once I wash it, the curling that I see in places will relax.

[minwifeof4boys]

That is just adorable!!!

[Tampa Doll]

I love what everyone has done and is doing.  Love the frog judianne.

Well, the Bull Dogs are done.  There are crochet patterns.  The larger one is a great pattern, especially for someone who has not made this type before.  She has step by step pictures.  They are both made with size 10 thread.

 

[judianne]

WOW, Mary Jo!!! Amazing work, my friend😍

[minwifeof4boys]

Oh Goodness that bulldog is sooo cute!!..good job MJ!
