Tag You Are It!

A blogger buddy Rosemary In Time tagged me yesterday. She won beautiful blog award (which her blog is) ... so go check her out. My tag is to tell you 10 things about myself that you don't know.
1. I was born on Flag Day.
2. My father wanted to name me George (which is a name I actually think I could pull off).
3. I was born in Montana and grew up in Alaska
4. I like gummy candies better than chocolate
5. I have a green thumb
6. I was in commercials as a child and a game show when I was in high school
7. I love to sing
8. I started dating my husband the Saturday before Easter. We got married the Saturday before Easter. We have no idea what our actual anniversary is :)
9. I love rain more than the sun
10. Something crafted related maybe for my last one? I learned to crochet before I could talk really well. I learned to knit around the same time. I dumped knitting until I was out of college and only crocheted for most of those years. I picked up knitting then and have gone crazy. Maybe my craft life is a yo-yo?

Bowls With Boarders!

Image
There is this great blog hop that I joined. It is called bowls with boarders. Regina came up with this great paper piece pattern - which I used to stack them this high.  Please check out all the other bowls for today! Birgit H. Vicki B. Monika G. Scher (no post) Dorothea Rosa Patch.The Love Of Sewing Nuclear Knits Cottage-Quilt Cattinka Hill Valley Quilter Ninis Patchwork   I wanted a table runner but didn't want to keep stacking bowls - so I decided to take my favorite fabric and use it on the other half. After that I decided my love of hexagons had to come out as well.  This was an incredibly fun project!  You should check out the rest of the bowls on the site.  So impressive!

F.O. Stupidly Simple Shawl

Image
I love putting FO in the subject line. Makes me feel like I've done something good! Project Details: Started on March 6th and finished on June 5th. Longer than one would think - but this was the car or doctor's office project. Not something I worked on all the time. I used 6 skeins of Bristol Yarn Gallery Buckingham Fingering alpaca yarn held together. Well I held two strands together (not all 6 at one time). This gave me the weight I wanted and it still drapes well I think. The pattern is really only 2 sentences long. I used size 7 needles and didn't change anything from the pattern. It was really a fun project!

When Crafting Goes Bad Part II

Image
Well I did it again. No I didn't cut my finger with the rotary blade - but I might as well have. In an attempt to get my big spinning wheel working I was testing out some fiber - when all of a sudden the whole flyer and bobbin came off and slammed into my big toes. I'm pretty sure it is broken or really badly bruised. I've been icing it and it hurts to walk. Again the hubby wonders why hobbies are so violent! Ps - I know I have ugly toes...get over it, they are feet!
