    Here is what I have been doing

    I have finished crocheting really big squares and haven't decided yet how to put them together. I have enough to make at least 2 matching afghans for my sectional. I am crocheting a pullover sweater from a crochet magazine someone has subscribed for me. I have never made a sweater for an adult but I have the back side done and am working on the front now. I had to go get some more yarn (needed more of the colors I am making it in.. shades of orchid or purplish of course!) I will post pictures when I figure it out how to. I have two new plastic canvas patterns that I want to try out. I received my puzzles from Mary Maxim today. They were all on sale (5 of them). I don't know where I am going to store them as I don't have much room to put anything. That other puzzle I was trying to work on is still not finished and I almost knocked it to the floor accidently last night. I wasn't thinking about how big the 5 puzzle boxes would be and they are pretty big. I finally set them on the night stand beside my bed. I have plenty of projects to keep me busy now! Love Patty

    Hi, Patty! You have a lot to keep you occupied. Hey, I like plastic canvas, too, and LOVE puzzles. I have several kits for crocheting some little Christmas trees and also have some kits for making some plastic canvas Christmas trees that are lighted. Every year I say to myself that I'm going to make those trees and every year Christmas gets closer and closer and the trees are still in kit form, LOL! Same thing with my crocheted snowmen family that I got from Mary Maxim last year! Someday, sometime, somewhere I'll get them all made.
    Freedom is not the right to do as you please, but the liberty to do as you ought!

    You sure have been busy I wanted to make some ornaments this year ffor the GC but never got around to it. Of course the don't take long maybe I can sit down some evening and crochet something for them, at least one each. With taking care of Tom and getting ready to move I just haven't had time to crochet. My mind hasn't been up to figuring out new patterns.
    I am glad you are getting something done. Maybe next year will be a better year for me.

    Hello, ladies. Patty, you DO sound busy! I have mostly been crocheting scarves for the homeless and lap blankets for people in wheelchairs. The Lord has put this on my heart so it's the only craft I've been doing this year.

    Hi Patty. You are a busy lady. I have 6 puzzles I still need to put together, i also have a lot of plastic canvas patterns. I am going to have to buy more plastic just to do them all. Right now working on a big plastic canvas snowman you can hang on your door or use as a wall hanging. I also have one that is a santa. I have a pattern for a santa workshop. I sold that one last year so will have to make it again. I have some lace angels I am going to put together and some clothespin reindeer and make some snowglobes out of jars. I have a lot of crochet patterns too and embroidery things too and some sewing patterns. I have a sewing pattern for a stuffed bear set. It is a grandma bear holding her little grandbear. She has glasses and is holding a book. I have enough to keep me busy all winter which is good.
