A Home-Made Christmas

This year I’ve tried really hard to get as many home-made gifts done for Christmas and I started earlier, like in the spring of this year, to accomplish this task. The funny thing is I thought I was finished when I completed my friend’s cardigan a couple of weeks ago, but then I got an […]

Some finished projects and bunches of books

I finally finished Grace! Now all I have to do is block it.

Fresco Top Class

Carol and Nancy came over yesterday and finished up their Fresco Tank Tops. I’m sorry I didn’t get a picture of their Finished Products to show, maybe I can get one at our next Love Knots meeting. I’m so proud of these ladies! They stuck to their goal and now have the skills to make […]
