Terrific Tuesday
Today IS Terrific!
Yes, after a bad morning
yesterday, there was light at the end of the tunnel! By NOON my day had
come full circle from AYE being 1/2 hour late (on a testing day no
less) to some great (private) news about a friend of mine. So, as you
all may well know, the day can change and life DOES go on!
I was talking to a dear friend of
mine over the weekend about a blanket I made a couple of years ago for
my mom's birthday (yes, I also crochet and knit). I spent about 30
minutes looking for the photos and then realized that I wanted to SHOW
it off to you. THIS blanket, by far, was the biggest project I have
ever done via crochet. It is done in Simply Soft yarn and the bed is a
CALIFORNIA KING (72 x 84 inches). It is also on bed risers! The stitch
I used is one that has been passed down via my Aunt to my Mom and then
to ME. I am not sure where it originally comes from or what it's name
is, but we call it Basket Weave. Very FUN and very SOLID stitch to do.

For over 30 years this talented wood carver has been perfecting her art. SandraHealy's studio
is amazing! Full of life and color. She craves over 250 species by
HAND and has researched and studied every one of them. Between all the
time she spends outdoors and the time she lovingly carves all of her
'creatures' it is no wonder that they are so so lifelike and beautiful!
Please go and visit all her links, leave her comments and enjoy her
creations!

Tonight is open house at AYE's
school, so for the thought of the day - enjoy your children. They seem
to come into our lives like a tornado - it is almost too AMAZING to
watch! ~KM
