Messy house = Happy kids

My house is full of signs of good play time, cherished memories and a little something special in the works.  I am going classic with granny square in fall colors with heather grey.  I love grey blankets.  It's only two squares and I already love it. 

October

Ok ok ok, I don't know quite what happened to the month of September.  

It was here, it was gone and now the same has happened to October.

BUT I did manage to write up a new pattern, make my sons Halloween costume, keep the kids fed and clean, and kept up on housework for the most part.  So at least I did get something accomplished.

I also made quite a few hats to start stocking up my booth at the local shop I sell in.  So all in all I think it was an OK month.

Here is a peek at some of this months happenings.

The new hat is SO cute!  I am really happy with how it turned out.

I just posted it on RAVELRY and ETSY check it out :)

September

HELLO!!  September is here and Fall is just around the corner.  I will be working on a lot of fun patterns and posting links to them here.  The two little ones have kept me so very busy this past year.
I have done a few projects recently and got back into my groove.

I made 2 baby blankets and am working on 3 more.  There are lots of little babies on the way in my family.   I loved the "V STITCH" it was very fun to make.  I have used that stitch for a bag but never for a blanket before.  I kept seeing Le monde de Sucrette post about her V stitch blanket and I fell more and more in love with it.  After all the blankets are done it will be the perfect time to make new sweaters for the kids this fall.
