Still Behind....

But, I'm going to try to catch up!  Honest!

Here is a better picture of the blanket for Aunt Jeannie's soon-to-arrive grand-daughter.

You can see the little roses better and then you can see why I chose to put knitted roses on the corners of the blanket.  The little roses came from Aunt Peggy.  She had them at her house and asked me one day if I would have any use for them.  I thought they finished off this outfit just perfectly and thought of her very fondly while I sewed them on.  I hope Lauren and her parents like them too!

This is the hat of the next outfit I made for the hospital.  I just liked it and thought you might like to see it up close!

And, here is the rest of the outfit.  Any of you who have known me for a long time will know that I have been knitting this popcorn set from an old pattern book that I have had since Mommy was just a little girl!  I've gotten more proficient at it over the years and pretty yarn like this makes it even better!

Here is Taffy showing off her relaxed, but chic, outfit for a cooler day this spring - just before we got our heat wave!

And.... this is the blanket I was working on in May - I have sent another one since then - and I will show you the picture of this one all finished when I get to that folder in my pictures (that means sometime "soon").  It is almost done in this picture, I just added a border and sent if off to the hospital with Auntie Cecile.

Poppa and Squeegie were taking a break - doing some jigsaw puzzles on the computer - Poppa loves doing that (and of course Squeegie helps him immensely!).

But - it didn't take too long before Poppa was outside working again - seeping up the sand that washed down from the road during a big rainfall .
