Ready with a Gift

I always seem to need something for a baby shower so I decided to make up some baby hats and booties so I always have a gift ready to go. The hat is not my design but the booties are.

Cranes Corner

Heard today on Cranes Corner, his blog is not updated yet but here is the link....for Ed Crane's Crane's Corner(local morning news anchor on KFBK)

He was mentioning something about truck drivers (long haulers) having to wait sometimes days for their return shipments and he was saying some have taken up sewing and knitting. Can you imagine(yes, I can) these big burly truck drivers knitting and sewing? Wonderful, I loved it. He said some even take their sewing machines with them. Check out his blog later today and I am sure it will be updated with his post.

I do love Ed Crane's commentaries and try to catch them everymorning. 7:18 am and then 6:18pm.

Working on baby hats for Charity now. The ripple ones I did not design but the preemie one(pink) and the other off white one I did. Ripple hat pattern courtesy of this site

My First Blanket I Ever Made

25+ years ago

and last but not least more ripples.......

this one I just made to make

this was just a fun square one, but doing motifs takes too long, I prefer doing one piece blankets

and even more Ripples

and the one for my daughter to match her bedroom.

and more Ripples
