Over a Year

Wow! It's been well over a year and I don't think anyone has read my blog. I'm a busy person, and it's so hard to promote. I'm thinking I need to leave more omments on other blogs, post more pictures and such. not such an easy thing for a mother of five. But I'm going to try harder! I'm also hoping to make more of my own patterns instead of making stuff other people design. I need to get my etsy store up and running again, but first I need to take alot of picture (something I'm not very good at. Plus my kids always turn into little hellions the minute I break out the camera. Staging - it's all about staging the photos. Nver enough hours in the day. If I'm trolling blogs and leaving comments, when will I have time to create? Always something huh?

My Bears Blanket

This blanket took me about a year to make. I used yarn I could only get at Hobby Lobby, so when I ran out (because I didn'y know how much I needed) I would put it aside until I had the time and money, or I could talk my hubby into going. (Even better if I could talk him into buying.) I also had to put it up when I was working on stuff for a craft fair. Then I fell and broke my ankle and I didn't feel much like crocheting so I read a lot. The picture isn't great, but it was the best I could do at the time. I made it large enough to fit my queen-sized bed, and with my bum ankle, I couldn't get a very good shot, plus my two-year-old wouldn't get off the bed. Well, I finally finished it last Friday, and I thought this could be my first new post. What do you think?
