I am back!
Yes, I am back! Oh how I missed you my friends and how I missed blogging, visiting blogs, leaving comments, writing new posts… I can say that I am back from a kind of hell! Everybody got sick in this family and when somebody was feeling better, somebody else was getting worse etc…we’ve been ill and then better and then ill again all of us :(… A special kind of very bad virus… I’ve been a nurse and a sick mummy at the same time and that was one of my worse weeks …Today, we are all feeling a little better, the girls are still at home resting…they are still very weak but today is a better day…
During this crazy week I’ve crochet a lot… yes, I crocheted between wiping runny noses, taking fevers and giving medicine to everybody…I crocheted when I was feeling a little better between a headache and another…The crochet was the only thing that was keeping me away from getting completely crazy and out of my mind…I’ll show you today some progress I’ve made to Love Birds…
I’ve crocheted 32 squares so far and I’m loving them…I’m loving each and every one of them…
and I’ve chosen two colors for the joining…wanna see?
I love this light turquoise…It is one of my favorite colors and it is beautiful in our room where the walls are light blue…mmmh…(Love Birds is a bed spread for our room)
I have a small idea on how I’m gonna joinall the squares with these two colors 😉 …Will make a small sample for you my sweeties to show you next time and I’m counting on you to tell me what do you think…
Have to go now…a lot of work is waiting for me…but before leaving I want to give a big BIG THANK YOU to two lovely ladies for giving me the versatile blogger award! Thank you so much Jill and Gramma Rita ! I am very honored to receive such a wonderful gift 🙂 You both really made my day!
Sending you lots of love, hugs and kisses…
See you very soon (I’m crossing now my fingers)

OOOOOOOO, poor you! Mummy’s have to keep going at any time, don’t they…… I’m happy for you that you got so much love birds done. Curious about your joining…I’m always on the lookout for the ‘perfect’ way, but haven’t found it yet. Good luck with your last ‘nursing’…. Enjoy your day!
I am very happy that you all feel better. I’m looking forward to seeing this blanket finished. It’s beautiful!
I’m sory to hear all of your family was ill but luckly the end is near. I know what you had to pas tro cause here in my family I felt like a nurse, also. My girls went out for shool today and I hope they’l come back in good shape. My husband also whent to work. Corss my fingers that everythings go alwright and I don’t have to pick up one of my family.
I’m happy to see that you still had the courage to do some corchet. Your coulours to joining all the love birds are very nice. I also love turquoise.
I hope everything go’s well and looking forward to see more of your works. It make’s me happy.
ah la la ! ma pauvre Angie je me mets à ta place, être malade, maman et infirmière en même temps, c’est vrai qu’il y a de quoi devenir “dingue”.
Heureusement pour vous si tout ça se termine.
Tu as bien travaillé dans tes moments d’accalmie, je ne sais si c’est vrai, mais j’ai lu sur un blog que le crochet et le tricot étaient bons pour la santé,
ton choix de couleur pour joindre tes grannies me semble bien sympa !
gros bisous et bon rétablissement à ta famille et à toi
bisous
Betty

You deserve the award, and any others you may receive 😀 I always look forward to your postings and to seeing what glorious work you have created.
Take care and stay well 😉 *hug*

Last week i broke my arm and now i am pity for myself but can still learn much of crotching from the internet.

Hope you are all on the road to recovery! The squares are fantastic!
So sorry you have all been ill. At least you were able to find time to crochet amongst all that illness. Lovely squares.

Glad you’re all doing better now. Lovely crochet as usual. Take care.
Glad you and your family are on the mend. One of the reasons I love crochet is how portable it is. So nice to curl up with hook and yarn. Looking forward to seeing your sample. The blues are very pretty.

Can’t wait to see the finished product of all of the beautiful squares! I am inspired to the nth degree to begin a project with granny squares because of your photos, I think! So sorry to read that you and family have been ill, glad to know all of you are on the mend now. My own household has been under the weather as of late, as well, and I also find that crochet is a good way to help Mommy cope 😉 Please continue on with your lovely blog 😉 Congratulations on the award!!!
I was wondering WHERE you were… it was not much like you! very good, Glad to see you back and glad the children are doing a bit better… KEFIR Angie, KEFIR! give them that, ever soooo good for the natural defences 😛
REgards and best wishes!

Hi. Just popped over from Lucy’s blog (Attic 24) and wow, am |I pleased I did. So sorry to hear that you and your family have all been poorly. I hope you are feeling muvh brighter now. Just want to say that I’ve been browsing some of your pattern links and for the first time I get to understand graphic patterns. So a big Thank You for making them so easy to follow. I look forward to dropping by regularly – you are now on my Favourites list! Best wishes.
So sorry to hear you and your family have been poorly 🙁 It fair takes it out on you. Good to know you managed to keep crocheting beautiful coloured yarns for us to ooogle. Glad to hear your are feeling better. Well come back! Love your Love bird squares. This is going to be another beauty! hugs Ellyx
I am having a hard time starting a new row.
I totally love your pillow cover you made and I love the gorgeous colors of your bigger squares. I’d like to tackle a pillow cover as it is a great start to practice on before doing an afghan, plus I don’t know if I can wait a year to finish a blanket I won’t be able to contain my excitement.
My excitement to learn crochet has come a bit too late as my gran could have taught me how to crochet but now her eyes are not so great and I ended up making my first little crochet item, a bright yellow cell phone pouch for her Tracfone SVC phone for seniors that she can wear around her neck, it has the large keys and letters on the phone screen.
I also love your bright little coasters and flowers they’d make a great bag or scarf.
