Crochet Crafty Goodness

Well,  I have to admit it.  I  love to craft!  I really love all kinds of making. Cooking, sewing, quilting, knitting, crocheting and all kinds of paper crafting.  I like them all but I seem to do them one at a time, except for cooking of course!  But even  with cooking, I only tend be creative and adventurous with my dishes during the holiday season.  So this year, after a two year hiatus from scrapbooking, I jumped in again in January and have continued to do so up to now.  From there I got into some mixed media art as well as art journaling. I have been doing it all!

When I think about it, I have always liked making, ever since I was a little girl.  I wanted a holly hobby  oven and got a holly hobby sewing machine.  I picked weeds from the back yard and pretended to make soup out of them.  I took old jeans and cut them then sewed them up into a very primitive purse.  I just love making!

So now that the weather is turning cooler, even in Sunny SoCal,  my attention is suddenly returning to crochet and knitting. Here is what I made this week!
