Witchy Doll and more

Today I received my Halloween Swap today from Sue for the swap at Denises Crochet Group.
Sue sent me a lovely Barbie Witch doll with a beautiful black witchy dress that she crocheted with thread and the cutest witch hat with spiders on it. Too cute!

She also send a skein of orange yarn, (perfect for this time of year) and a cute Jack o Lantern candle holder with candles.


Thanks Sue!

Halloween Goodie Bag Swap

I just received my swap items from the Halloween Goodie Bag Swap at Crochet Cafe





Everything is just too cute. Thanks, April!



Here is a close-up pic of the bag so the jack o lantern beads will show up better(hopefully).







Happy Crocheting!

Halloween & Christmas Crochet

I've been busy on Halloween items and Christmas Squares.
Here is a pumpkin patch pillow that I made for an Autumn Swap at Crochet Swap Buddies.


Another swap project was this Halloween Bag and little Boo Ghost that I made for the Halloween Goodie Bag Swap at Crochet Cafe.



Run for your lives! The Mummy walks the earth once more! Tee hee hee.

Somehow he really doesn't look all that fierce, does he?


The Mummy was for another Halloween swap.
See below what I received from my swap partner in this swap.


A kewpie doll in a cute cat costume. Isn't it just adorable? My wonderful Swap Partner Debbie sent this to me.

And here is the lovely corpse bride and her beloved ready to tie the eternal love knot.



I really had fun making all the Halloween items.

And here is another Christmas Square that I made for a swap (don't remember which swap.)


I'm off now to work on more projects.
Happy Crocheting!

Christmas Squares

I've been working on Christmas Squares. Some I didn't take pictures of before I sent them off, but this last batch I decided to take pics of.

So here's my parade of squares. all of them are in Victorian Colors, except for the last square pictured that one is in Traditional colors.


















I also made a dishcloth last weekend. In the picture it looks blue, but in reality it is purple!

Cheyenne's Poncho

I finally finished the poncho for my granddaughter, Cheyenne. I think she will like it.

It would look better on on a person so it would fall correctly. But I don't have a live model available. LOL!
I have been working on swap items, some Halloween things, Christmas Squares, etc. . .
I am terrible about remembering to take pictures and I am working to do better with that. I relaly like being able to see what I made, what yarn I used, who it went to, etc. . . This is the perfect place to log all that info along with a pic.
Well, I'm off to take the dogs out, water my plants, and then do some crochet today.

It's in the bag - Purse/Tote Swap at C'ville

I received my tote bag from my partner Stephanie at the "Ville.


I just love this bag, so pretty.






She also included some extras goodies.





Here is a pic of the bag I made for her. Unfortunately, the color looks all washed out in this picture. It is reallya nice Midnight Blue.
