Crochet in the Green

I finished my dad's Christmas gift, the green crochet blanket. I forgot to take a pic, Da! if you're reading will ya take a picture and email it to me?

I'm working on some much needed dish cloths and will sew up some tea towels in the next few weeks. I've committed myself to making blankets for all the kids. I think I'll sew some, knit a few and crochet... to shake things up a little and help avoid boredom.

My first Crochet Blanket!

Ok, it's not knitting.... hence the "ROGUE" in the title.

My plan is to line it with purple paisley cotton backing, and maybe adding a scalloped crochet edging when I'm done. Can't just leave it alone. Now be careful not too look too close at the squares as there are a few first ones that don't actually fit properly.... but like I said "It's My First" and I promised myself I wouldn't get all caught up on perfection.

I'm onto a new one, a massive green wool/acrylic yarn that crochets in minutes..lol

Earthy Birthy Mama Quilt

This project was put together by some very creative and special womyn! The smiles this quilt has inspired is crazy! My four month old babe loves to grab hold of the yellow squares, but also enjoys the different textures of all the other ones.


It's even more special knowing that the quilt is not only for me, but was created to honour my DD Cass. What an adventure we've been through these last years. The quilt is an extension of the thoughts and love that followed us on our way.

I'm sure the EB gals without even realizing it, created a timely piece that had such perk and pick-me-up value beyond imagination. Thank you gals for thinking of us.

BTW you've inspired me to create a crochet quilt. I'll post picks when its done.

It's been a while! I've wanted to post some pictures and projects, but guess what... have to complete them first.

Having said that, I am working on a wee baby sweater and pant set... with booties of course. Once I have done enough to show that I am working hard, I'll toss up a photo. In the mean while, I'm adding some sewing projects to the list.

Wish me Luck
