Hello......

Greetings from the foothills, Y'all! We're still offline, but I knew I'd have an opportunity to post today so I brought along some pics in hopes of getting you caught up with what I've been up to lately (other than the howse sale.) I made these coasters from a tutorial over at All Things Heart and Home. Actually, I did them last year but didn't get around to posting them. My sweater, Iced is finished! That is except for sewing on the buttons and making the button loops - it's blocked and ready though.
I found these cool buttons at JoAnn's, a turtle and a fish in case you can't tell what the shapes be.
Lastly, a baby hat using another free pattern here.
Final note this visit...I've been able to keep up with your blogs via my phone, and it's wonderful to be able to do that, but unfortunately I'm not able to leave comments using the phone. Until next time...have a great week and see you when I can...the good Lord willin'. :)

    So glad to hear back from you! Hope you can read these comments from your fab phone. Mine is not that smart though ;-)
    Pretty sweater and even prettier buttons, I must say. And that baby hat too, of course - I have also been making some baby clothes lately, I would have choosen to knit this cute hat had I seen your pic before. Maybe next...
    Take care and enjoy these last days of the autumn season.

    Oohh... I've been looking for a "simple" (not lacy or cabled) cardigan I could wear to work. This one could be IT!

    Hello!! I was so happy when I checked your blog and found something new! :-) Love, love, love the sweater. Hopefully, mine will turn out half as lovely. The buttons are perfect.

    I made the apple cake ... superb. I plan to make another soon. Thank you for the recipe.

    Hope all is well with you and the family. Are you snowed in? I was until a friend shoveled a path to the car for me today. So far, there is about 5 inches of snow with another storm on the way Thursday night. Winter showed itself a little early this year.

    Merry Christmas!
    Your West Virginia friend,
    Lesley Ann

    I love all the knitted wonders. And the buttons are the cutest, aren't they. I am a button fanatic in addition of fiber, fabric, and all-thing craft.

    Thanks for stopping by this morning and your nice feedback on my toque ^.^ Happy Solstice!
