You Are 10% Yankee, 90% Dixie

You're completely Dixie all the way. You've possibly never even met a Yankee!

Are You a Yankee or Dixie?

Happy Saturday

Howdy! It's been awhile since I updated here. Been busy I guess, not anything dramatic just life in general. You know how everyday things can keep you going at full speed! lol

I've been busy stitching (of course)! I received my first rr to stitch on for the artecy rr we've started on the forum. I'm excited about it, this is the first time I've done an rr. If it goes well, I'll definitely do more of them. I like to stitch for other people, it's a good feeling when someone gets excited over something you've made for them.

As for my crocheting, I'm working on another round ripple afghan-this one is called Aztec Sun round ripple, I'm using black, green and yellow for the colors in it. I'm about halfway done with it. I've got lots of crochet projects planned, but I'm being very good and not starting them all at once! (it's hard though, truth be told the only reason I haven't started them all is lack of yarn lol!)

The weather here is starting to turn cooler, time to start getting ready for the winter weather. Dh says the almanac etc. says its supposed to be a cold and wet winter. Yuck. Have I mentioned that I hate cold weather? Anything below 70 degrees is bad in my opinion. Guess I'll just have to stay busy inside. My SIL brought me more books to read so I have lots to keep occupied with.

Here is my first round ripple finish! I just love these designs,

and plan on making many more~

Tada! Here he is, all finished! Ready to join the pack of wolves

that I've got going on~lol, what shall I stitch on now?! I only

have about 9 other wip's going lol

Cry Wolf
(The first book in the Alpha and Omega series)
(2008)
A novel by
Patricia Briggs



Now Briggs begins an extraordinary new series set in Mercy Thompson's world - but with rules of its own.

INTRODUCING THE ALPHA AND OMEGA NOVELS...

Anna never knew werewolves existed until the night she survived a violent attack.and became one herself. After three years at the bottom of the pack, she'd learned to keep her head down and never, ever trust dominant males. But Anna is that rarest kind of werewolf: an Omega. And one of the most powerful werewolves in the country will recognize her value as a pack member - and as his mate.

This was a great read, I didn't recognize the author at first but then realized that I've read her before, Hobb's Bargain was a book that my sister-n-law loaned me and I loved it as well. Patricia Brigg's stories are well written and I will be following this series as it unfolds~

my h-bag

Here is a crochet bag I finished up today. It's from a free pattern I found on Ravelry called Inga's crocheted bag or hakelbuten(sp?) I made mine with red heart worsted yarn, in light sage and blue. I really like it and am using it as a project bag. It's holding yarn for my next project, 6-pointed star afghan. It's an Annie's Attic pattern that is so pretty. I'm doing mine in pinks and browns, I'll try to post a pic when I get further along with it~

As for my x-stitching, I'm still working on artecy's wolf 2. I've only got 3 pages left to do and he will be finished! I find that I am able to stick with just that one wip since I've started crocheting again, it seems to keep the startitis in check, lol!
