I'm pretty sure I can't actually sum up all of my projects in a single blog post. Maybe I'll just pick out some notable ones and share some photos. I only made one quilt (I think) which was for my parents' 50th anniversary. I made a handprint quilt using prints from every child, spouse, and … Continue reading 2021 Project Roundup

Yarn Along for August
[regular blog post at the bottom below the Yarn Along post] So these are some of my recent projects.

Miniature Sweater, Bonnet, and Booties

Red Eggs
These crocheted versions are available at Cozy House Curios. Interestingly, I am also in charge of dying the real red eggs for our parish at Pascha. I'm glad I don't have to crochet that many!

But by our own low standards, winter was here, and now we're bracing for summer. Spring is usually wet, but February saw us receive twice … Continue reading Signs of Spring
