A Winter Purse


My mom recently remarked that I have a lot of purses, and I suppose I do.  But when I can make them myself, or buy them on sale, I am not too worried about it.

What do you do with the things you create?  Do you keep many of them for yourself?

Triangle Prayer Shawl



This fuzzy shawl was quick, made in one day.  When I finally figured out the pattern, it was easy.  I had to restart it too many times to count, but I think it was worth the hassle.

Bunny Hat and Sweater



This pattern was from the Crochet-a-day calendar I got a couple years ago.  It was originally made with white, yellow, and blue, but I wanted to use shades of pink.  What colors would you use?

Valentine Prayer Shawl



I designed this from a one color scarf pattern.  I like how the colors worked together, and I think I am beginning to understand a little about what a painter does when painting a picture.

Icy Ocean



Snowbound again, I was inspired by a beaded bracelet made previously, and I decided to make a necklace to match. The colors reminded me of the ocean and one of the seed bead colors listed is Icy Blue, hence the name.
