American Diabetes Association

Hi Friends & Family. Diabetes is a disease that affects many of us in some way shape or form. I have found myself lucky that my friends and my family who have diabetes have lived very manageable normal lives because of the wonderful achievements found through diabetic research. Please support me on this Sunday's Ste...p Out: walk to fight diabetes!

There is not such thing as a small donation. Every dollar helps and every thought, prayer and dime is appreciated.

Craft Sale (overdue)

The craft sale was basically unsuccessful.  I don't know if it was because we didn't let people know enough, because the weather was rainy and cool, or if it was just because no one liked my stuff.  I don't mind.  It just reminds me that I'm doing this because I enjoy making items.  I enjoy giving them away.  I enjoy wearing them.  Selling them would definitely help fund some of the yarn I purchase and give more purpose to projects I do with no idea whom to give them to... but oh well.

Here are some photos of hats I made the week or 2 before the fair to try and bulk up my inventory.  I really liked many of them.

I think they came out good.  I ended up keeping the larger of the browns and blue one above.  I liked it so I wore it on a rainy day.  Now that one is mine.


Here are some pictures of my display at the fair itself.



I thought it looked great!
