Summer Vacation

Back in action after a little summer vacation.  It was so fun to see my family and spend some time with all my nieces and nephews.  It's good to be home and get back to my usual routine 

Picked up some yarn this weekend and got some work in on the granny heart I made last week.  I am making a more girly version than the last granny blanket.  Then I have to get started on another geometric lace blanket.  I am excited to make another.

OK I promise I really am taking a break.  But just wanted to leave you with my granny blanket.  I really played around with this one a lot.  I had so many ideas of what I wanted to do with it and in the end just a simple edging on the granny looked best.  I love how it ended up!  I think that light blue is my new favorite color to work with.  Blue is the new white.  Hope you all have a great week.

Small break for summer

I will be taking a break from the blog for a week.  So today you are getting a double post.  It's been a beautiful sunny morning so Mr T and I spent some play time in the yard.  He picked me all the dandelions he could find.  Each one was sniffed and delivered with a kiss.  Melts my heart!!

Colorful Hearts

Hmmmm.... I think my idea isn't working like I thought it would.   I still love both heart patterns though.  I will definitely use them again on another project.  

Scrappy Happy Granny

 My WIP's this week are simple.  Just a few Flower headbands and a granny square.  For the granny square I am using a smaller hook so the gaps aren't too big.  No color planned just using whatever color I feel like on each row, or whatever color Mr T picks out.  I love how much each row changes the feel of the square.  Let's watch it grow. 

Mod Baby Boy

 

It's so funny how much excitement I get out of each new project.  I am really proud of myself for trying something new and actually making on my "daydreamer" list.  I would definitely make it again.  

Modern Baby Blanket

 Took my crosses project with me today and snuck in a little work and finished the border.  When I was working on the Geometric Lace #3, someone had mentioned adding a boarder that changes color with each block.  When trying to decide what I should do with this blanket, I thought I would experiment with that idea a little.  I am happy with the little added touch that it adds.

Now to grab the weaving needle and hide all the ends.
