Es ist schon wieder 'mal August!

Kaum zu glauben, aber es geht wieder mal stark auf Weihnachten zu. Hier sind ein paar meiner neuesten Handarbeiten.

Ich hab mich entschlossen meinen Blog mehr auf deutsch zu schreiben, weil ich im Moment in mehr deutschsprachigen Gruppen bin.
Letztes Wochenende war ich in Kansas City, MO und hab dort den 3. Geburtstag meiner Enkelin gefeiert. Sie ist immer noch ein grosser Elmo Fan. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Gabby!

I know, I should slow down some but ...

Had to start knitting patches for a new blanket and went back to crochet a bag.
I'm also working on a baktus scarf...

... and got this cute picture of Gabby and want to share it.

It's almost Memorial Day and I want to wish all of my cyberfriends a safe and happy holiday.

HAPPY EASTER!!!

to all of my relatives and friends here and in Europe. It's Easter and still cold in Virginia -- and I want it to be warm so I can get outside. I have new pictures to show and today, I finished a special cupcake. Is this cute or what?

Naturally, no holiday without my little sunshine. Here she is finding easter eggs. I should think she does pretty good. And she likes her new Easter dress.

It's Spring!

It's getting warmer outside and I am busier than ever. So much yarn, so many patterns and so little time, it's pathetic. Yesterday I became a member in a group for modular or mitred squares in Europe. I have so many plans for this year.
Talking about plans, I am making plans for vacation too. We will be in Kansas City in June for Gabby's 3rd birthday.

Well I have to get ready to leave. Hope to find time to be back here later on and post some newer pictures.

It,s Sunday

and I'm up early and feel a lot better than yesterday. My sister sent me this picture of my christmas present to her. It was not meant to be a tablecloth but looks nice I think. That is my version of the ONDAS available at Ravelry here: http://library.ravelry.com/KnottyLa/1491/Fibercrack.pdf?AWSAccessKeyId=1YZR91QYB6WCG3PM78G2&Expires=1237113614&Signature=zEmE%2FG5bkdBEXFimgfWVHHsPPxI%3D

Wow, this year is just flying and it's time I post a bit today. Comparing to the 70 degree weather we had a week ago one could say, that winter is back. It is raining and cold and windy and I don't want to leave the house today. I participated in a Newbie Swap and received a very pretty package from my partner today. That made my day.
I've been knitting up a storm since January and completed my Danish Shawl and am halfway done with my Lady Jane. I also finished a ton of washcloth, some hats, and started a mitred square lapghan. The picture shows Gabby at Chucky Cheese's. Seems her favorite place right now.
