Fall ?

Can you see the small touches of color in the tree? Fall officially starts at 11:09 pm Wednesday.
But it sure dosn't feel like it here. Atleast not during the day. We are still hitting the low 90's. Was 93 out yesterday. And we are close to hitting a record here. The record was 88 days at 90 or above during the summer. Right now we are sitting at 82 days.  We shall see what happens..
I am really hoping for a cool down soon. I am really ready for Fall.


A couple more pictures of the trees. I don't think you can really see any of the touches of color in these last two.

I have been working on some new dishcloths. Here is what I have finished so far. Can you tell I have been thinking about fall? :) The dishcloths are done using my own design. The colors are Country Red, Sunburst Orange, Gold, Jute and Celery.





And here are some coasters I finished also. These are made from my own design as well.
The colors I used for these are Lilac and Tangerine.


Have a great day everyone!!!

Knit one, purl two or something like that

While my mom was here last week she showed me how to knit. So above you see my first official finished knit piece. I know, my ends are still hanging out and its not exactly straight. But I am happy to have finally done something with knit. Thanks mom for showing me how.

Here is the start to another knit item. My mom wrote out a dishcloth pattern for me before she had to leave. I had to start over a couple of times on this one, but I think I have it now. Excpet there is a missed stitch on it allready. Thats ok though.
I am working with Peaches and Cream cotton and size 8 needles

And here we have a crazy looking pile of pouches. Well a few piles. LOL!
Over there in the top corner with the pink one on top is a stack of finished pouches. The others are just waiting for me to sew them.

Cotton Candy

Cotton Candy Bath and Shower Puff

This is a brand new bath and shower puff. I used what was left of a couple of balls of WW cotton that I had. there wasn't enough of either color to complete a puff. So I thought I would try mixing them together.
About the afghan in the previous post. That pattern is called Lacy Blocks and was in a Leisure Arts Crochet book. I don't remember the exact name of the book. I didn't actully make that one. It was a gift from a friend of mine. It is one of my favorite afghans.

Pouches


I had mentioned before that I was working on some more pouches. I make these for Amy all the time. Above is a picture of the most recent ones. Alough the picture above makes it look like there is more, I only have a total of 19 finished.
I have a new digital camara and was playing around with the settings. This is just where I took two photos and stitched them together on the camara. I am still trying to figure out this new camara. So I may show some more funny looking pictures. :)
Also, my finger is healing quite well and fast. I had really thought it would take longer... But I have been fortunate in a quicker healing process. :)
