I have finished the Bobble Baby Blanket! Isn't it pretty?
I am so glad that I purchased this yarn and decided to make this blanket on a whim. No, there is nobody expecting in my family. I have decided to keep this blanket to either save for one of my own future grandchildren or give to a little one I meet along the way or eventually donate. For now it is residing in a closet with the Butterfly Baby blanket.
I have already begun another crocheted baby blanket. I made this about 16 years ago for a friend's baby and vowed I would make one for a future grandchild. Again there isn't one on the way yet. I want to be prepared.
I also planted the flowers for my front porch pots. I had thought I would change things up this year, but I returned to my tried and true geraniums and sweet potato vine. I do think that they look pretty. I have plenty more plants to pot today. Yesterday was spent washing the windows in my living room.
I also planted the pots on Mom's front stoop. These were her Mother's day gift from me.
I am joining Kathy for some Slow Sunday Stitching. Pop on over to her site and see what other bloggers are stitching. Today I will be planting my pots, but I hope to stop and add more Santa stitches this afternoon.
Thanks for stopping by!
Oh the blanket is beautiful , so are your flowers .
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Sunday.
The Bobble Baby Blanket is precious! Such a beautiful pattern in the prettiest of yarns. Love that sweet elephant; perfect for a baby blanket. Just look at those pretty flowers in pots; and your azaleas are looking a treat. Azaleas are always stunning when in full bloom. It looks as if spring is performing beautifully there. You have done a lot of stitching on your Santa. He is a jolly fellow.
ReplyDeleteThe azaleas are amazing, we forget about them and then they flower. Absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful flowers on the azaleas,! I have a pink one in our front garden. We gave my MIL flowers for her porch for Mother’s Day too, we also plant geraniums on our porch. My FIL used to grow geraniums for us from seed every year. Santa looks great and the baby blanket is very pretty. Looks like the new blanket will be a fun project too. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteYeah! the elephant is perfect for a baby blanket, so pretty. You are smart, when baby is on the way the blankets will be ready ready. I love geranium and azalea flowers. Great progress with Santa's cross stitch. Have a wonderful week, Cathy.
