Update On Things...

WOW!
 I can't believe its been almost a year since my last post.  So much has happened in the past year that I hardly have time to crochet, let alone blog about it lol

I have managed to squeeze in a few projects here an there...I kinda went a little hat/beanie crazy for about a week or so and I just made one more a few days ago.  They are my go-to project.  I enjoy something fast and that I can get done within a few hours.  I just wish I could perfect it so they come out the right size every time!
I really wish I could find a mentor around my area to help my master the things I want.  I have a pretty good grasp, and I can read patters, but I MUST be doing something wrong, oh well lol

I am in the process of trying to use up all my yarn that I have stored away.  I would really love to buy more, but I have no room for it and seriously, whats the point in buying more if I never use it?
So, I am determined to get a lot of things finished before I buy more yarn.  And I am dying to try I Love This Yarn from Hobby Lobby.  They have so many colors to chose from which is so much more that the Impeccable Solids from Michaels that I have been using.

Pinterest has been my go to for finding patters and ideas for new stuff to create.  I have some pretty neat things on there.  Here is a link to my crochet bored of awesomeness! 
If you know of or have any interesting boards from pinterest let me know in the comments, I would love to find lots of new projects to add!

Hopefully I can start adding more to my finished projects page soon :)

Hello Again...

Hello!

Cluster Stitch Purse
It has been way to long that I have posted anything on this blog, let alone been able to sit down and crochet anything. So much has happened in the past several months and so much more is still yet to come.  My family and I moved from NY to our hometown in FL back in August, and my daughter turns ONE in 3 weeks and I just haven't been able to really get back to crocheting again. I have started a few projects here and there, never finishing any of them - except for one.  I just finish a cluster stitch purse that I had made in a few days time. It turned out pretty well for my first purse if I say so myself!

I seriously plan on making more time for myself and that means more time for crocheting! I have a baby blanket that needs to be done ( will put photo up shortly) as well of another purse and a few other projects that are sitting half done.

I also would love to join some kind of CAL, maybe something for beginners, although I am past the true beginners stage now, I have picked up on the stitches pretty fast.

Thanks for reading and I am always open to suggestions and feedback!
