Almost too Many Projects!
I have so many different projects that I want to do, sewing, knitting, crocheting, and spinning...all of it! I want to sew using a quilting kit I got a while ago, sew a skirt, finish knitting another shawl, crochet a different kind of shawl, crochet a large afghan, and get better with the drop spindle. My cotton-fields! SO many different things I'm wanting to do! It'll be so much fun, almost overwhelming though ;) haha
New Yarn...and FREE!
So, when we were in Tennessee, we went to Hobby Lobby. I got some fabric to make a skirt and was SO excited about it! Well, a couple days ago my sister, Tabitha, took me to Joann's because I wanted to get some yarn to make a matching shawl for my skirt, I couldn't find yarn to match it, so I bought a different color that I liked, even though I knew it wouldn't match my new fabric. OK, so here's the actual point to the story haha.... Today, my Gram and Grandmother came over to spend some time with us and work on some crafts. Gram showed us all of her finished shawls, one of them matches my skirt fabric PERFECTLY!! Then, Gram said she had 3 leftover skeins of that very yarn and that I could have them if I wanted! I was so super excited! It's the perfect amount to make a beautiful shawl to match my skirt! Now I can hardly wait to get sewing and crochet a shawl to match it! =D God is just so good!!!!
Update!!!
So, after I posted this yesterday my sister and I brought my grandmother back home, and guess what! She gave me several skeins of a sage type green yarn! It'll work REALLY well for the afghan I'm wanting to do....my cotton-fields, so much yarn was given to me yesterday! =D Couldn't be more excited! Praise God!!! |

What a blessing from the Lord to receive all of that yarn! He is blessing your efforts, Praise God!

DeleteHi krista!
ReplyDeleteWhen you talk about spinning it makes me think of Cami. We just saw Cami today, and Priscilla. We are going over Cami's house on Friday for the dress-up day, and maybe on saterday for the spinning meeting. And on Friday Chucky and Stacey are coming for 4 or 5 days! So we have a buisy time coming up.
I have been praying that the Lord will guide your dad to the way he should go.
I hope to see you soon!
Many Blessings,
Caitlyn
Caitlyn, I did get your comment, but for some reason it won't let me see it on my blog,only in e-mail. But, spinning makes me think of Cami too! =) The dress up day sounds like it should be fun, take lots of pictures! And thank you for your prayers! =D
