Snapshots of love (1)

* Colors on my table…

* Colors on my nails: I don’t remember when was the last time I put some colors on my nails…maybe in 2006 ???? 🙂

* Our old phone: It is one of the objects I truly cherish in the house. It belonged to my beloved uncle who passed away two years ago…Every time I look at it I think about him and how good and kind and loving he was…

* The kind of books that make me happy…

* My sweet girls: The house is soooo very quiet when they are at school and I miss them a lot…They are the sunshine of my days…

* Baby Joe: He is already 4 months old and he smiles a lot a lot and that makes my heart sing with joy 🙂

* My actual work in progress: “Fall” in love : a blanket I am enjoying to the max 😉

* My formal living: It looked so cosy and warm this morning…

* My living with a lot of baskets full of yarn: My husband is always asking me why there is in this house, everywhere, sooo many baskets full of yarn… Should I answer or no?? 🙂

Have a warm week!

Sending you kisses and hugs…

P.s: I decided to make from time to time this kind of post with just snapshots and a little text under each one …Hope you’ll enjoy them!

Weekending

Hello!

How was your weekend?

Mine was good …at home…

I’ve made some progress with “fall” in love…8 rows already…

I always make a square with each color…without finishing the last joining round…and then I lay them all on the floor to choose the place of each color…

…writing the colors on a piece of paper…(very bad memory 🙂 )

I love how this blanket is turning out…

and while I was in my own paradise…the girls were coloring TOGETHER…yes together … this don’t happen everyday 😉 and it always ends with a fight 🙂

and baby Joe was gently napping …

I’m in love with his shoes 😀

Wishing you a happy week full of happy moments!

“Fall” in love

Hello my friend!
First post in 2013…
I hope you’ve had a beautiful holiday season and that 2013 will be a wonderful year for all of you!
We’ve had some great time together with baby Joe this Christmas and the girls are still at home…they will be back to school on the 7th …
We are still in “digestion” mode after all the food we ate during these 2 weeks…uuuuf…a diet is a must now…just water for two or 3 days hehe…to wash out all the not-healthy-at-all-food… 😀

To have a good start of 2013 I began a blanket 🙂 Yes, I am a blanket lover and I love making blankets…This blanket will be for a cousin of mine who’s got married in summer and who moved to a new warm and very cosy home…but she don’t crochet and a home without a crocheted blanket in the living room is not a home don’t you agree ? 😉

I have enough blankets for my home and crocheted bedspreads for every room so one of the resolutions for 2013 I’ve made, is to make blankets for the others, friends and cousins who do not crochet…I have to have a REASON to crochet more blankets … 😉

The blanket I started for N. is with the autumn colors…that’s why I called it “fall” in love…it will be a fall colors blanket…

These are the colors I chose…

I love these colors: Red, orange, purple, greens etc…they are so warm and they let me think about cosy winter nights in front of a fire 🙂

And this is the start of “fall” in love :

The pattern is the very classic square and the squares are joined together with a last round made with chains and s.c…

Next time I’ll post for you the very easy graphic to follow if you’re interested…
And I have to show you too the progress I’ve made to my granny shawl…delicious 🙂

2012 was a blessed year for us with the addition of baby Joseph to our family and it was a very good year for me in crochet talking as I’ve made two big projects two bedspreads (one for baby Joe’s room and one for ours) and many other projects too…thanks to your presence and encouraging comments to every post I write 🙂 You’ll never know how much I appreciate every word that you leave here my friend and I’m very sorry that I’m not able these days to leave a personal response to each and every one of you…
Hoping that 2013 will be a good year for you and for me…
Many many kisses and hugs…
