This is finally finished!!!




I am so excited about my newest pattern.


My goals for next week are making and confirming appointments with consignment shops. Completing 10-12 " 12 pipe" hats, to bring along with other small order items. I would also like to look into local Craft Shows. The question that I get most often is, " Do you do craft shows"? I always have to answer sadly," no". I would love to get at least one of these under my belt.

Today's Creation


For the longest time I wondered what talent God had blessed me with. I often would think about this while sitting and crocheting. This past month God finally revealed to me that my gift had to be exactly what I had loved doing since childhood. Crochet was once a hobby and now it is my God given talent!

Today I sat down and created this set. I worked on it all day and I have it memorized. I will have it copy written in the near future and possibly add it to a book for publishing. I plan on creating more patterns primarily focused on infant and baby wear. I have so much to share and so little time for I am drawn back to the hook that God had first allowed me to become accustom to.

Thank you mom for first putting the hook in my hand, and to my Mother in Law for encouraging me. For this will be passed down to my daughter and hopefully carried through all generations!
