Happy Windy Saturday Afternoon!

Hi and happy Saturday! As you can see I have another addiction!

 

Crochet!

 

I think outside the box, don't follow a pattern, actually I can't follow a pattern, lol , and I'm kinda a free spirit! So my designs are one of a kind and unusual for sure!

 

Many pictures of my version of the "shawl" or "wrap this around your neck, and put on your jacket or sweater" scarf! lol

 

This one you won't trip over, and it will not get in the way of your other clothing!

 

For years when I worked I had to wear something around my neck and face for the frigid weather I was exposed to and the scarves were so long, sometimes they were just choking me!

 

So I came up with what I call my "bulky knit" look, using the largest crochet hook I can find and my imagination. I know they are straight lines but humor me!

 

some have one button that can be utilized or not. The scarf can be wrapped in lots of ways around your neck. I like that part, never a dull moment! haha

 

I am happy with these, I have many, and am going to start selling them! A girl can't have too many scarves but I do so there you go! lol I enjoy the process of crochet, the texture of the yarns, the colours and just holding them. I am being taught by two sisters that allow me to play my twenty questions with them on some of the how-to!

 

Have a wonderful Saturday, partyin over at My Romantic Home later today! Here we go! lots of pics!

 

 

 

 

Fall colours, so lovely!

in the top pictures, the large afghan was made by me many years ago it is about six feet by six feet with fringe! I love that thing!

 

hugs and have a great day!

Relaxing Organizing and watching the Weather

Good mornin all! Well as you can see I am fascinated by the cloud formations lately, so pretty here in the desert! The wildlife is also loving this monsoon season as well!  I am loving the cooler weather, the cloud covers and the colours of the sky.

 

The humidity is up to 71 per cent, all I can say is wow! lol

 

Enjoy the rest of your week!

Hey Happy Friday!

Hello to you today and happy Friday, all I can say is relax and enjoy the day, humidity and all! lol

I happened to find this little lovely, and I mean lovely, I don't understand Spanish, but this was so very cute that I just had to share it! I've watched it over and over! Enjoy!

And since I have three of these little amigos, well, they are a very cute breed! hugs to you, kat =^.^=

To quote Elvis!

 

Hi everyone and happy Monday! Well I thought it was! I apparently have a "critter(s)" out in the back 40! lol Ick ick ick and double ick! ok enough of that! I'm itching over this and became the Queen of all Drama Queens today for sure! Hey, I was entitled!

Film at 1100!! lol

 

Anyway to quote Elvis, here is one " hunk a hunk of burnin love!"

 This is a way vintage Singer and she is a gorgeous piece of machine! And in working order! I have found a lovely sewing machine repairman here in my little city, he comes up from Henderson once a month, to visit our fabric store,  and I got all my vintage babies fixed! Can you say, yet another obsession, I mean, collection!

 

Anyway, she works, and I love her! the decals are gorgeous! She will sew a lot of layers too.

 

She is sitting atop my latest find.

 

There she was, "the big girl"  standing on end, another one on end! hum, (found my vintage 1940s couch that way too! lol), anyway 9 drawers, with the dust covers, oh my goodness, and she fit just underneath all my fabric shelves in my spare room. All 6 ft 3 inches of her!

 

I hit her with Howards Furniture Refinisher, does wonders for real wood, makes like new. She houses my craft items that might get too hot in the "fashion wear house" a.k.a. the garage, so this will work out perfectly for me for the organization part, which I am still working on!

 

Here are a few more pictures of my latest find, the big girl dresser!! Have a wonderful rest of the week!

hugs, kat =^.^=

 

 

Vintage hardware! Oh my goodness!

Dust covers, oh be still my heart!

 

Normally I paint everything, but she is too pretty and handsome, inlay and character, wow! Did I mention heavy! Solid wood! Oh my ackin back! lol

 

Isn't this bad girl purdy!

 

Even a jewelry tray! In perfect condition I might add!  Gimme a break! s.c.o.r.e!!!!!

 

Hurry up kat, she screamed, as it started to sprinkle! That was a day! humid, hot and of course the minute I got her outside awaiting help to get her into the house, 6, count em, 6 rain drops all landed on top of her!
