Baby Blanket Done
I finished a blanket to sell at the store. I crocheted this one, pretty easy pattern.
I think this photo will show you the “true” color… It’s the Lionbrand Homespun Inca… LOVE IT!
Scrapbooking with Dell
We have not posted a lot of our scrapbooking lately, so I thought I would show some of the stuff I did at scrap club on Monday night.
This week, we learned about working with metals (Thanks to Jeff… he noticed I accidentally wrote mentals!!!) Here I used aluminum and a die cut machine to ake this flamingo. The page really needed something, and this just did it!
This is just another Snooplahoma page from the OKC Zoo. Found something similar to this layout in Creating Keepsakes magazine:
What I liked is that it was really simple but still had the look of something that took me a lot of work and time.
Erin’s Gonna Kill Me
I bought a blow torch.
For scrapbooking.
And it’s really cool.

More Blankeys
I have made a couple more blankets to sell, made out of fleece with fleece binding. Here are 2 of them:
Fleece Blankets
I have also decided to make fleece blankets for the store back in NY. My first attempt, however, sucked! I had rounded the corners, so adding the fleece binding here was NOT easy! Therefore, this has become a new blanket for Kasey.
It’s almost as if she knows she should pose for me…
60% Off Starting 10/2
Tracy just forwarded me this from the Scrapbook Barn:
“Mention this email today and receive 60% off of your purchase, otherwise, effective tomorrow, Thursday, October 2nd the official percentage will be 60%.”
Screw eating!
Heather’s Scarf
Heather wanted a new scarf for the winter, so I made her one in purple (her favorite color) with Lion Brand’s Thick & Quick Chenile. This is a one-skein scarf that I crocheted, about 4 1/2 inches wide. It is sooo soft!
I treid to take a photo of me with it to share online, but all I kept getting was my head. So I used my normal “model” to pose this time around:
Scrapbooking Squad
It’s been a long time since we got together to go scrapbooking at a late-night crop, and there are more people in the little Bad Girl Scrappers club than just Adelle, Al, and me. We’ve practically taken over the crops by now! Yes, we’re in the lovely romper room again. Anyway, expect to see these people around more and more …
You know this charmer. That’s the back of her friend Vicky’s head. We like Vicky.
It’s Done!
I am 99% complete with Gregg’s afghan! I am sooo looking forward to not looking at this damn orange color ever again!!!
I started weaving in the ends from changing yarns last night. What a long, tedious process…

Art Time with Al
We are redecorating our living room with a Parisian theme and in search of some art for the walls that is french without being food/alcohol related . . . a difficult task! So, during Lili’s nap, I dug out my paper, brushes, and Rose Art watercolors and voila!
here is the photo I based this painting on:
