Where did I go?

Whew!!! I'll bet I have the worst blogger award on record. Where does the time go? It seems like 2 weeks ago it was summer. What have I been doing with myself?

Well. I worked on Angela's quilt top:Hung the lights in the kitchen:
We did a walkway and a deck in the backyard

Added 2 arbors:
This one is my favorite
I crocheted a couple shawls, here's one of them:

This one is the Pineapple Shawl and the pattern can be found here at Caron International
The other shawl was from Naturally Caron :
I did this one in blues and tans
Made several pairs of slippers:
Made a bazillion pot holders and hot pads and dish towels:
I love to crochet and I am waiting for this book to come out, the cover shawl is beautiful:
I think I found a new favorite Kristin Omdahl
read about it here: If you like to crochet you must visit Doris' blog. I love Doris Chan patterns!!! Here is the last book of hers I bought:
Worked on Alpine Seasons: (I am beginning to think I will never get done)
Martina's patterns may take a while to stitch but she is my favorite cross stitch designer.
Add because I am a glutton for punishment and am in a race to accumulate as many cross stitch patterns as I can I joined 2 of Marina Weber's classes.
