1/6/11 Something that makes me smile....

My mom tried so hard to teach me to crochet when I was a little girl...but I could never learn,....everything was always backwards for me. You see she was right handed and I was left handed, so I would always get frustrated and give up. I wish I had had more patience with myself and with crocheting. In the past few years I have come to absolutely love it. Although I have only finished a couple of projects, I tend to start a million. :) However in the last year I have gotten better at it. I am doing my best to finish the projects I have started before the end of January. I know that I can do it...I just have to put my mind to it....So when i finish this blog I am going to work on this particular blanket that is part of a Christmas present for someone very special to me. Now if I can just make the blanket look like the picture....(of course in different colors but you get the idea). I love love love my new basket that my honey got me for Christmas...now I can crochet ANYWHERE!!! I love him and he knows me well!  I hope you all have a wonderful night...and if you have something that you love to do....do it! The accomplishment is worth the fight!
