Robots...

For Christmas last year, I embroidered pillow cases for my nieces and nephew. Here are a few pictures of the robots I designed and embroidered for my nephew. On the back of each pillow case I put the verse:

"For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7

Spot, the Dog...

Well, I finished what I was working on and I think it turned out really cute.

And here he is, Spot the Dog...

Ta-Da...

The end.

Tomatoes and Flowers...


First off, on this beautiful Memorial Day, I would like to thank all of the Men and Women who have given, and those who still do give, their time, energy and lives to keep us - as a country and a people - safe and FREE! May God bless them.

I love the way my tomatoes are growing. It seems like every day I go out to look at them, they have grown a few inches taller. The two plants pictured below have so many fruit on them (the other two plants have a little longer to go before producing). I can't wait to eat them...


Cherry Tomatoes 
 
Grape Tomatoes 


I am also amazed at how many flowers I have growing on my hydrangea bush. The colors are so beautiful...

Another New Project...

So, this is something new for me. Crocheting this tightly hurts your hands after a while...

You'll see in the last picture that I have used a small coated paper clip as my stitch marker. I saw this at another blog and it really works out pretty good.
