almost a month again
And the best part of what I have been doing lately is..... admiring my beautiful brand new goddaughter!!!! Jacie McKenna was born 11-8-08 at 10:05pm weighing in at 8lbs 1.75oz 20in long. I seriously couldn't be more in love with the precious little girl even if she was my own. I thank my bestfriend sooo much for letting me be there for the delivery and being in her life as her godmother... I seriously was balling my eyes out as soon as she was out of her womb.
My mom also just sign the sale agreement for her house, which still houses a lot of my belongings... so I have been there quite often going thru stuff and moving things out... I would just like to know how someone can acquire so much STUFF!!!
So that is where I have been, I will get some pictures up soon, have lots to show!

the weather is getting cooler, do ya need a scarf???
Here are the scarves I completed and attempted to sell... sorry I can't remember the exact color of most the yarns used, I don't have the labels with me or my notebook with the details so I'm just guessing on most of them! (I can't even begin to tell you what the homespun blue was really called or the berella 4 either)
I made two of these, lemonade homespun, thin and short, perfect for a little girl...
Red Heart Baby, green
Granny Squares!!!
A few months ago I was part of the Spring Secret Pals Swap at the ville and in the begining they asked us to donate at least one square for some end of the round prizes and I think a ville gahn too... I donated 10, after I did the first few I just flew thru them, I followed a few patterns for the first couple and then after that I made some up as I went along...
all images are clickable...
Other than that I made the squares for my gaint granny #2 (as mentioned in another post and earlier in this one) which were just your basic granny. Which I thought I had pictures of in my photobucket so I could add them while here at work, and I don't! That stinks...

I've got stuff to show!!!
I've also completed the afghan squared and gifted it to a very deserving bride-to-be! I just love these colors!
On the checked of list (doesn't really exist, but it gives me an idea) scarves out the wah-zoo, my intention is to set up a table/tent at a few antique car shows this fall and sell some of my handmade items, scarves being one of those items. This is just one of the many I completed last week, with many more to come!
Well that's what I've got for now, I am still working on the up-down stitch afghan for an xmas present (about 75% done), the 2nd Afghan Squared (with a granny twist), A new 4.5 hr afghan for my new living room and I just started another xmas afghan, this one a ripple in two shades of blue and a med-dk brown. I'll be sure to try and keep us with this a little better showing more pictures too! Enjoy.

Another Lame-O Update
I hadn't been crocheting all that much but now that we are almost settled in the new place I am making time for it and I've finished a few projects and started only one, but I feel the need to start something new again! hehe I promised a good friend of mine that I'd make her new baby a christening outfit, I've never attempting anything wearable beside a beanie so I think I want to start one and give it a try before the baby is here and it's time for a christening and there is no outfit or it looks horrible (with her first child her bf's mother had someone make the christening outfit and it was horrible, so she's afraid of another homemaid one).
I've also just started taking my cousin's senior pictures, I sat down and edited the first batch last night, I'm so excited she's letting me do this for her, it's so much fun and I love being able to get the experience. We decided to do them in batches instead of trying to get them all done at once... this way we can take a look at the ones we did first and see what we want to do differently for the second batch and so on!
So that's where I'm at, hopefully I'll remember to get some pics up here. Take care!
