Ha, I think I've mentioned before that I started adding beading to my crochet projects? Well here are a couple that I've finished. The white one on the left is a little too large for a thimble pouch but perfect for a small amulet pouch and oh soo girly. Now the gold one on the right is a bit bigger then the thimble pouches that I showed you earlier, but still perfect for a thimble or an amulet

Well I'm officially down to just two employers now ... but both of them have been keeping me hoping like crazy the past couple of weeks ... With Christmas fast approaching the demo scheduling has me frantic to find new demonstrators and to get all of the demo's booked ... and of course the US Census for our town decided to hold a last minute job fair ... well one of the TV stations came out and

A few weeks ago I ran across a picture and crochet pattern for a Thimble pouch or Tiny Amulet bag. I just fell in love with these sweet little pouches and even though I haven't done much crocheting in nearly 20 years I didn't let that stop me. Of course the first couple didn't turn out the best, but I was on a roll and kept on going. I actually ended up by modifying the original pattern to suite

Well it's been awhile since I last posted ... lol ... sometimes my life gets very hectic or I go off in tangents and do something else. Last March I started a new part time job which is based out of my home. You know those demo ladies that you see in the stores on weekends? Well I'm working as a scheduler for one of the demo companies. Which means that I'm responsible for making sure those demo's

A Ditty Bag can be any size or style and is used to carry or store a variety of items in. This style can also be used for an old fashion reticule for everyday or to use for reenactors. They make great gift bags that will become a cherished keepsake. If you walk to work or weather different shoes during bad weather, you might want to make one of these in a size that will work for you to hold her

Hanger Cover From Vintage Pillow Cases This is a wonderful way to use those single or damaged vintage pillowcases. You can enjoy the beautiful embroidery and crochet work and use them for a very practical purpose.
