Textured Afghan Planked!

Hello

and 

Happy Sunday to everyone!

Well I did it again!

Yes, 

I started a new project before I finished my old one!

But I couldn't resist, the afghan was just to cute

and I really wanted to try out the pattern!

And best of all, I found the pattern book on our

Libraries bargain table, 25 cents,

now who could resist that?!

 Originally called "Pale Green Textured Blanked"

but after taking inventory of my yarn stash 

I decided on a bit different color theme.

The new color line up.  

 The bargain book.

"Crocheted Afghans" by Melody Griffiths.

Just love how the classic waffle stitch gives the 

afghan that wonderful texture.

I'm hoping to get the blanket done before the weather turns cooler,

oh yes, and my fall cowl too! 

Looks like I'm going to be busy 

knitting and crocheting the next few weeks!

Thank you so much for stopping in!

Hope you all have a great week 

and 

maybe I got you inspired to start a new project!

Believe in your Dreams!

Hello everyone!

Hope your weekend is going well!

I been busy in my stamp-room 

creating cards for upcoming 

Birthdays and other occasions

on top of trying to keep up with our crazy yard.

The grass is growing faster then we can mow it,

it's August, it supposed to be brown and dead,

not so this year, we are at it twice a week, 

ARRG!

But I was able to squeeze in some playtime

and made a card for a sweet 

friend and co-worker who is leaving us to

follow her dream in becoming self-employed!

 "Believe in your Dreams"

is for her!

 Sentiment from Inkadinkado stamp set

"Friendship". 

Flower from Stampin'Up! set "Friends".

Pattern for Daisy flower here.

 Butterflies were leftovers from previous projects. 

I hope she liked the card!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Wishing you a great weekend 

and 

a wonderful week!
