AUTUMN SWAP RECEIVED

I was in the Autumn Swap, from my Group CrochetSwapBuddies, and here is what I received, from Sabrina!

I think: the throw pillow is just to cute,I will leave it on my couch, through Thanksgiving,gives the couch a homey feel, I think.Of course the towel,mitt and pot holders, will decorate the kitchen.Thank you; so much Sabrina, I love it all!

Sorry, I do not have a picture, of what I sent her,hopefully; she takes a picture, and then I will be able to post it here.

Kitchen Swap

 I was in another swap from CrochetSwapBuddies.The Kitchen Swap and here is what I received from Lindsay.

I know the round one, is supposed to be a dishcloth, but I think I will use it as a doily, under my spoon rest, it will be just perfect.I love the braided cloth! I have got to get that pattern.Thank you so much Lindsay I love it all.

OK: Well, here is what I am sending Lindsay. She said she wanted deep red,This picture is to bright ,because the red is not this bright,it is more of what I like to call blood-red.Anyway I think she will like it.It goes out in tomorrows mail,so I hope she doesn't check my blog,before she gets it.lol

Coaster swap

These are the coasters, I received yesterday from Joni for the coaster swap from CROCHET SWAP BUDDIES GROUP.

These are the ones I made for Julee.

SPECIAL OLYMPICS SCARVES

Today; I have started on a scraf, for the Special Olympics Scarf Project .It is a project through Ravelry, to make scarves for the special olympics.They are trying to get 5000 scarves, for the participants in the special olympics, and I am more than happy to help.Because; I feel these are really special people, who really need our love, and support.So if anyone out there is interested, just go to the Ravelry web site, and go to; Special Olympics Scarf Project's page, and get on board, and crochet or knit a scarf or two, for the special people in these olympics.The scarves are being made in Red Heart Super Saver-White and Delft Blue.

I will post pictures when completed.

TODDLER BED BLANKET

I started on a blanket, in tunisian crochet for Donivan, and forgot I had it.lol Well I am continuing to work on it,I will turn it into a toddler blanket.It is blue,green,white,and yellow.Tunisian crochet, just takes longer than regular crochet, and I get bored easily,so I have other projects going at the same time.So if I get tired of  working on the blanket, I can work on something else.I am working on a pair of socks,a doily,actually I have 3 doilies, I am working on,lol. I am also working on dishcloths, and washcloths and a tote bag.

So I have a lot to do.I am also working on an Autumn Swap and also a Christmas Swap.

Well that's about it for now,hope everyone keeps themselves safe from Hurricane Ike.

Hope to update everyone in few days.

Monster Socks

OK I know they are ugly.lol And yes; those are my ugly legs.lol The socks are supposed to be ugly. I made these in a group I am in ,in Ravelry,Called (Monstersocks)you are supposed to use scrap yarn,meaning left over yarn, from other projects.This is exactly what I did,I used the pattern (The Ultimate Socks), and leftover sock yarn, and a size F crochet hook.

These were fun to make, and guess what they fit, and are actually comfortable, and will be warm, on those cold winter nights.
