Hello From Missouri

Hello Friends,

It's been awhile since I have posted a picture.  I have been working on my squares.  I have them bordered, and all but one blocked.  Life has just been so busy lately that I just can't seem to fit everything in each day that I would like to fit in.

I have made a Butterfly Chair set for a friend, and didn't want to spoil the surprise by showing it here until she got the gift.  So, now that she has gotten it I can share a picture with everyone.

I am sorry I can not share the website I copied this pattern from.  I failed to save the website, and have been searching for it, with no success in finding it again.  If you know where I can get this pattern again I would be ever so thankful to you.

Spring has finally come on the calendar, but we are still have cool temp's.  I see the flowers are coming up, and Easter Lilies blooming in spite of the cold. 

Ok I will share a couple views of the chair set with you.  This chair set is different than the ones you normally see in that it has a solid crochet up the middle of the wings like the body of the butterfly. 

Hope you enjoy my pictures.

My group has been making 12 inch squares together to make a Lapghan.  You are welcome to join us, and make your own lapghan.  Our 1st square is the Creeping Trebles Square. I will get my 6th CAL square Saturday, and I will add it when I get it made.  If you would like to join us, go ahead and start making your squares.

inspired to create your own.  Let me know if you make it too.

I finished the lapghan, and it is more the size of an afghan since I used the celtic lace join.  I have been trying to add it to my blog unsuccessful until I downloaded the firefox browser.  Hope you enjoy it, and have joined us in this CAL, and you are welcome to share a picture of your finished work with us.

Hello Follower's, close friends, and just who ever stops by for a visit.....

Hello Friends,

I very seldom write on my BlogSpot.. but today is a different day, and here I am talking.

Do you ever get really disturbed when you know something is not right?

I read a little story one time about an Indian that had two dogs inside him,
one wanted to do what was right and the other wanted to do what was wrong, and it depended on
which one he fed that won out.

Well, I am not having trouble feeding the right dog, but many do.  So as you go about your day feed the good side of yourself.  You will feel so good about yourself. 

Your friend,
Katheryn
