Using Sugar 'n Cream Confectionary Colors 14 oz. I could make at least two more from this skein.  I love the way they name the colors in this collection.  I used the Cupcake (seafoam) and the Icing Sugar (White). I used my own design using Single, Double and Treble Front Post.  It's 12" wide X 9" high.

I love to crochet, but I also love to sew, paint, bead, scrapbook, quilt, really anything that deals with any craft.  I recently learned how to do stained glass.  I learned to crochet from my grandmother when I was 13, now I'm 39 (yes, that's my real age).  That's 26 years of learning from the basic granny square to actually learning how to read patterns and even making my own patterns.

I know how to basic crochet-I have made basic crochet strings for my cat-like a long leash and a braided string-a crochet play toy with jingle bells-tried to make a small crochet pocketbook-didn't turn out-I made some small baby footies in 1986. maybe some day soon I will learn how to make more crochet stuff. for now it's beads,plastic canvas and my banners I make with stencils,rubber stampers etc. I can learn other things but haven't had the time.
