This part of my blog is all about the things I collect or the things I make myself. I love so many things, I paint and draw and want to learn oils and pastels. I knit and crochet but want to learn tatting. I embroider and can turn my hand to most things given a chance. So much still to learn and do. I live in hope of some day reading all my books, learning all I want to learn and now I am learning to blog. You will often find my original poems, poor as they are I offer them here. I also appreciate other people art and will feature things I find that I have enjoyed. That includes pictures of fairies and fantasy or maybe just anything beautiful.
I try to use my own photo's as much as possible, sometimes I borrow from the web. If I inadvertently use your picture without giving credit, please do let me know and I will either credit or remove it, I hope you will do the same with mine.
If you wish to leave comments on my blog you can do that by joining google if you do not have a blog yourself, please comment if you can I appreciate that.

A few finished projects..............

I finally finished Gerry's scarf. It's soft and warm and I made it from the yarn I got at Samaritan's Closet (2 dollars). I have began another and should have enough yarn to make a matching hat I hope. I love the colour.
I finally sewed together the hat I made with matching scarf. I had the yarn in my own stash. I really like the colours on that set.
I don't make a good model but I am not sure what to call these items. THey are a scarf but can pull up into a hood. I thought they would be great next winter when we go to the beaches etc. I can just have it around my neck and pull it up when its windy and pull close around the face. Great for under the hood on my coat as well.
I didn't have as much yarn for the yellow one but it will work for me. I would put it on the other way though so it fits better......I want to make more of these because I really liked them. I think they will be useful.
The other things I am finishing off are a couple of crochet pouches that I will show later I think I will line them and put closures on them for holding items in a purse.

    What lovely things you have made! That's a great idea to put able to put it around your head. I just made a new case for my cell phone but it is a bit too big. Will hang onto it and if I get a bigger phone, it will most likely fit. Like if I get a blouse that is too big, I hang onto it, will most likely fit into that one day! LOL! Take care!
