I was surprised to find how few pictures I had of projects I’ve made. Only recently have I begun to keep a record and even then it is sketchy. So my latest inspiration has been dish towels. I love working with cotton. They work up quickly and are such fun to give as gifts. Here are a few of them.
This fall I also made an afghan for a friend’s wedding. This is a large throw, almost bed size, from an original pattern. The colors are actually a beautiful gray and blue, but the picture turned out yellowish and I am not good enough at photoshop to fix it.
Our two youngest went to Texas A&M as did our nephew. This was the third Aggie afghan. This one is crochetted. I wanted it to look retro, like a grandmother made in the ’50s.

I believe I have already said you were an artist . I like the crocheted afghan held by your son .and also the one made for a friend ‘ s wedding . Good choice of colors .
Compliments for those art works .

WOW! You have some very nimble and talented fingers! I really love your work. I crochet a little bit, but it is almost a family joke because all the hats I make turn out ugly. When our newest son in law joined the family, I had to make him an ugly hat for Christmas. It is a tradition! LOL!
