Its been a while since I have made a blog entry! Was beginning to think this was another project that I started and never finished, but I am determined to keep this going.

Over the past couple of months I just never had the time to post anything. The reason being is that I work at UPS as a package handler and during Thanksgiving to New Years Eve we have our Peakseason which is hell for us. It is just unreal on how busy we are. Between starting at 1:00 and going until 9:30 so we can load the trucks up for the drivers then meeting up with the drivers later in the day to help deliver packages just tires a person out and leave no time for family life.

Maybe next year I shouldn't start something right before my busiest time of the year, haha!

Just taking a little snooze while waiting for more packages to arrive, 2:00 AM was just to early for my friend here.

My trailer only 1.5 hours into my day, only 6 hours left to go. Had to load over 1000+ packages into this sucker that morning.

With Peakseason 2014 finally finished I can get back to my crafts!!!

Until next time!

Happy 2017!  I have been on a VERY big coffee cozy/sleeve kick, I love them! I mean, why not everyone loves coffee. Here is one of my "Valentine" styles. My plan is to make at least 1 coffee cozy design for every major holiday!  I make with red or pink hearts. Band colors are grey, black or white!

Letters for William

Next month is my baby's birthday. Can't believe he will be turning 1 in a matter of weeks! I never had a party when my oldest turned 1 and I wish that I had so I am making up for it now. So I am going all out! The theme is Mickey Mouse. Instead of having a traditional "Happy Birthday" banner I am going to make one using the following charts.   I however don't care for the gap between the black and red, so I will be filling in the blank row with another red. You can find many more Mickey inspired letters at this link  "Mickey Letters"   I will be posting more photos of the big party as I complete them. Until Next Time!

Hexagon Motif Pattern

Hexagon Motif Pattern: I know there are so many different patterns and tutorials floating around already for a basic hexagon pattern but this is mine. Like any other crochet pattern out there, there is no "right" or "wrong" way to do to it! Here is my personal preference on it: Round 1: Start by making a magic circle, (you don't have to start your motif like this, but this is my personal preference when starting a "in the round" project) chain 1 to secure magic circle ends, single crochet, chain  4(counts as a double crochet and a chain 2 gap), *double crochet twice, chain 2* repeat from * to * 4 more times, double once more.  (You will have 6 clusters of two double crochets and chain gaps)  To end the round, single crochet into top of first double crochet (Second chain of first 4 chains) You can end rounds anyway you want, again this is just my personal preference! Round 2: Chain 2 [always counts as Doubl...
