Mother of 2, stepmother of 5, grandma of 5 and believe me they keep me busy! I love knitting, crocheting, beading, cross stitch, salt water fishing, camping, cats (I have 4) and of course any craft that happens to catch my eye. I tried but just cant seem to catch on to the world of scrapbooking. I would love to but I dont have the imagination (I guess)for being creative with pics and paper. However, when it comes to knitting and crocheting I change existing patterns all the time. I have never created a pattern, just changed whatever I am working on just a bit to make it mine. I never sell any of my work. I have a ton of family and friends to give it out to (thank goodness!) I am really blessed. My favorite painter is Monet and my avatar is my favorite painting.

craft interests: crochet, gifts, holidays, jewelry making, knitting

Re: How to Create a Matchbox Announcement

This is an awesome idea for a baby announcement! Very original. I can just imagine the different themes that can be used here. Thank you.

Re: The Big Step – Try Something New

Great comments about not getting into a rut. My problem is that I have a hard time finishing anything. I usually lose interest and put it aside to finish later. It does eventually get done just not in a timely manner. If anyone has a solution for this I would appreciate your advice. I love aran knitting. I have done 2 sweaters and am currently working on another one and just got the "Tree of Life" pattern for an afghan that I have been wanting for years. I can't wait to start. I have not mastered socks yet. I think all of you knitters out there will know where I am stuck, the heel. Oh well, one of these days I will figure it out and then probably slap my forehead and say duh! How easy! Such is life.
