Happy Valentine's Day!

Hope you all have a great Valentine's Day! 

I was a winner of Poppyprint Creates giveaway and Saturday received my winning "Stitch" magazine from Krista Hennebury.  She was fortunate and has her appliqued Orchard Pillow featured in this magazine.  There are 36 projects in this issue, with directions on making them all!  I'm so excited to get started on the pillow project and several others.  Thank you Krista for drawing my name!

Also have been busy with other projects, just finishing a small table runner and a couple of hot pads made out of the scraps.  They will be given to a nephew and his finance for a wedding shower present. 
I like how it fits our table, so might have to make another one.  It was very simple to do and I did the meandering on my own.   Now to roll it up and get it ready for Brad and Jamie.

Also delivered a few hats that I got done.  Now have put the yarn away for awhile.  But I do enjoy crocheting while I'm sitting watching tv.  Hubby gets irritated with me, because I don't always have my eyes on the tv and miss some important parts, then asking "what's happened"!  Do you do that?  He sure gets irritated when I do!!!!
  I love these little hats!  So fun to do. 

Now on to a reupholstry project for a nephew.  He has 4 cushions that need to be redone.  They must have come out of a travel trailer, and he uses them now in his fish house.  I'll have to take pictures or this project.  Want to get that done, as it isn't something I want to keep thinking about.  He is overseas in Kwiat now until summer.  Want to get them done, so I can deliver to his wife when I drive to Minneapolis for this wedding shower in March.

Hope you're all keeping busy and have a wonderful day with your loved ones today. 
Happy Valentine's Day!!!!    love ya all,

You are always busy on projects. Praise God - - you make good use of the time HE has given to you.
As you can tell, I am playing catch-up on reading blogs. We have been busy around this house -- - painting, yard work, etc.
