Just wanted to share...

I just wanted to share some of the items I have in my new shop... 

I started making these cute flower coasters and have fallen in love with them... I have been using "I Love This Cotton Yarn" from Hobby Lobby and it really is super soft and easy to work with!

 You can never have too many cotton dish cloths. I love making these Granny Square ones. They work up so fast and it is fun to change the colors to alternate the designs...

I am not sure how long it will take me to get my first sale in my shop but I am so excited to see what happens. Maybe it will be successful enough that I can stop working my second job... Who knows, I can hope, right?

Rub-A-Dub...


I needed a break from the big BYU afghan project... so, I made some more dish cloths... 


I absolutely love working with cotton yarn... It is so soft, and the colors are so bright and fun!


I love making these little gems up because they are finished so fast... 


and, they always come out different one from another...


I have big plans for the bright tri-colored ones... We have a wedding to attend this weekend and I already have an awesome gift! Woo hoo!

The Picot Stitch...

I learned a new stitch! Wonder of all wonders... The Picot stitch is so fun and easy to use to add boarders... I worked this cotton wash cloth up fairly quickly in light blue cotton and then added the edging in a fun orangy-red color. I simply love this wash cloth... Not sure if I want to use it, it is so pretty...






I made this cute wash cloth the other day and added the Picot stitch around the edge and it just makes it look complete... I think I will finish off my afghan with this cute stitch along the edge...


This stitch is so simple all you do is single crochet around your project and then single crochet, chain three and insert the hook into the first chain... then single crochet into the next space, and then begin again... (I know that might not make complete sense to beginners and for that I apologize!).
