Chevron Socks for Chilly Toes

I just finished these cozy socks for the friend of mine who had the motorcycle accident. Thought she might enjoy something pretty and colorful to offset that hospital green and sterile white.

I took them to her today and visited with her, her boyfriend, and her family for a bit. She looked like she was having a pretty good day. Some days she's in quite a bit of pain, but is improving everyday.

She will be leaving the hospital on Monday and transferring to an in-patient physical therapy medical center where she will be busy getting stronger. In order to be able to go home, she'll need to be able to walk with a walker and get in/out of a car.

She's been in the hospital for over 7 weeks. Her recovery has been a series of miracles. Really. Everyone is amazed.

What a strong woman.

Baker John

Totally scrumptious, this bread. John is home from college right now and in-between hours of aimless gaming, he must be thinking of good food. He trolled my cookbook case and pulled a very old Italian bread cookbook out and VOILA....filled our house with the wonderful aroma of rosemary. His first loaf.

Big Birthday Celebration

Are you here having fun hopping along with 3GirlJAM in celebration of Julie's sister's big birthday year? What a great little cyber party we're having! (she's really a young thing, but she's having a great year) Well, if not, you should be hopping along (I'll tell you why in a moment). There are some really wonderful birthday ideas from all of us on the design team...and including Julie's two girls, who are also having fun celebrating their aunt's birthday. If you need to go back to the beginning, head over to the 3GirlJAM blog to get started. Otherwise.... Here's my card in celebration her special year! I used blue crinkle ribbon from the newly released Red,White,Blue Bundle. It's such a nice shade of blue! The white has bits of the red and blue in it (and I love the ribbon when it's like that)...and the red is also pretty awesome...like marachino cherries. The little button in the center is from Pinque Peacock (l

Stylish Gift Bag

Today I have the above project featured over on the Pinque Peacock blog. (go visit!) I love how it turned out. It is a relatively simple design, but is sturdy and large enough to hold a nice size gift. I put handmade soaps in it and I don't think it will have any trouble holding up under the weight! Anyway, hope you like it! Let me know if you'd like a tutorial and I'll get my busy little hands to work! In the meantime, enjoy your holiday. We are supposed to have some pretty heavy storms, but today, so far, it is nice enough (SUPER hot and humid, but very few clouds).
