Easter Time

Easter is just around the corner I made these cute ideas one is a Mason Jar cover which makes a sure little Easter basket or candy dish the middle one is a bag to hold Easter Eggs or treats and the smaller one on the end is a water bottle cover

I have been absent for awhile - been working on some Easter ideas and also working on more blankets and hats for a cancer fundraiser which I will be blogging on that later ...My fibromaylgia has been really flaired up lately - I am grateful that I can still use my hands to still to create and do the thing I truly love to do.

Sometimes in our busy world we get so focused on what others need and expect from us . We are the parents our kids need,the children our parents need.a sibling I need to be,employee our employer needs us to be. The one thing I love about crafting is I get to be the person I want to be. When I crochet it makes me think about women who helped me learn how to crochet -it takes me back to a much simpler time - a place in my life before I became a wife ,employee and a mother. Where I was learning about myself and about the world I was preparing for. Find your talent and embrace it and let it be your get away from the demands of the world around you.

Sunday thoughts

It is a quiet day here I was looking for something really exciting to blog about but decided instead this seemed more appropriate. Today we are taking it easy- I have 2 side kicks sleeping at my feet -- looking at crocheting patterns.The kids are coloring quietly together and hubby is taking a nap- seems as if we are refueling for the upcoming week.. I will share a few more items I made last night while watching movies with my husband while kids were asleep.
