My Friday Finds . . .

 

 

 A few of the things I find each week that pique my interest and inspire me to want to do, create, become, etc. Maybe they will also inspire you!    

 

Premeditated Leftovers.  A Knots and Crosses game in a bag.  Cute!  Tic Tac Toe! 


 


Simply Crochet.  A beautiful Crochet Necklace.   

 


From Craftsy, a free guide to knitting stitches you need to know.  I love free.  This is a great resource! I love Craftsy!  

 


From Sarah Janes Craft Blog.  Some really cute Alcohol Ink Washer Necklaces. Also a very simple make.   

 

From Ravelry. A Crochet Sampler Blanket, designed to give practice to beginner crocheters for a multitude of stitches and techniques.

I love any kind of vignette done in a tin.  This looks to be a Christmas card done in an altoid tin.  I could not find a source for it, but I love, LOVE it. Its that mini world thing that I love so much. I think it came from Art From The Heart, but I could not find it.

Sometimes people haven't apologized
because they are ashamed.
Forgive them anyways. Sometimes
you have to be okay with a sorry
you never got. Forgiveness unlocks
your blessings.

  5. I see lots of cute finds today. I love the game in the bag and all the crocheted items of course. Really loved the crochet Sampler blanket; it's cute.
    Many years ago, I made Crocheted afghans for my mother and mother in law in the pattern of the mile a minute baby Afghan. I was working in an ICU night shifts as a nurse and another nurse helped me learn how to do it. Often it would be quite enough to work on these. Regretfully, I haven't got back to doing crocheting. I keep hoping too.
    Baking pan conversion chart is awesome.
    I really loved the links to the emergency preparedness stuff; thank you! The felt butterflies were adorable.
    I have been trying to keep up with our daily blogs and then my husband is admitted to the hospital last Monday night with Covid symptoms. Luckily, he tested negative. However, he ended up there until Thurs. He has Bronchial Pneumonia. Now the challenge is to keep him from overdoing so he recovers well. We feel blessed it wasn't Covid.
    Sending loving thoughts and hugs your way!

    1. I saw where Roger had been ill on Facebook LeAnn. I’ve been praying for you both. I am grateful it wasn’t Covid, although pneumonia is bad enough, so the prayers continue for a complete recovery! You need to take care of yourself also LeAnn! Keeping you both in my heart and prayers! ❤️😘

    1. I have a plan to do just the same Barb. We will see how far I get. Now I have absolutely nothing so there is no better time for me to start doing things like this! Love and hugs, xoxo
