Trying to Find My Way Back to Creating

all images from Pinterest

this color is a favorite

I have used it for many hooked rug backgrounds and birds...

need to pull some from my shelves

maybe it will inspire me to pickup my hook

 worn and loved are the best

 would love this for my kids

which they would probably ignore

Merry Christmas

Season 15 will be the last

need to hook mine this year

I might need your help color planning

that's the hold up

wanting a lighter background

the ricotta cake was a huge failure

in the trash today

these cookies are easy and delicious

only 3 ingredients

It's sunny in Ohio today!

No Santa?!

a sweet Santa image found on Pinterest

of all the rugs I've hooked

I can't remember hooking a Santa

maybe I should say finishing a Santa 

a few have been begun and reversed hooked

so tomorrow 

there will be a Santa on the frame

have you hooked Santa?

more than one ?

Back to the Frame

some images from Pinterest

to help me find the colors for my first Christmas rug 2017

not too hard to tell where it's headed...

I'll be making a few St Nick rugs for fund raisers...

a woman can't hook cats ALL the time

well, maybe some women

but not me

at least not now...

happy Sunday!

It Seems Like Forever

one year ago tonight

a little after midnight

my dear Dad passed away with me by his side

it has been quite a year

mostly so busy with Mom

I haven't had time to grieve

I thank him daily for so many things

miss him always...

Dad loved Christmas with his family

so tonight I've been looking

at vintage Belsnickles

checking out recipes for pfeffernuse

all things German for the holidays

tomorrow I am bringing mom home

for a few hour visit

praying it goes well

so it can be the first of many...

this morning she called to say

they took her and some other ladies to jail last night

weird because I dreamt someone kidnapped her

we really are on the same wavelength

quite often

we say it's because we are both the babies...
