Hiatus much?

So I dropped this blog obviously for over a year. I got busy, got a job, got a different job and got yet another different job only to be back unemployed a year later.

All those ribbons that I previously blogged about, yeah, they are still on the spool. Nothing ever has come of them yet. We'll see. I've started getting crafty again as a way to spend my quiet time.

I taught myself how to crochet and am currently working on two blankets. One for Aslynn, hers is a hexagon granny motif and Braydens is various granny blocks.

In between I've crocheted some pot holders. Some for myself, my mom and my sister, which I need to complete and ship and deliver. I've fallen in love with the Sugar N' Cream cotton yarn. What can I say :D

I also just got a sewing machine. I completed my first project which was a roll-up crochet hook holder. I'm rather proud of myself and how it turned out. I'll get pictures up of it in another post.

I'm also planning on sewing Aslynn an Easter dress as well as for her 2nd birthday in June. I took advantage of Hobby Lobby last week having their McCall patterns on sale for $1.99 each. Can't beat that at all!!!
