Wednesday Round Up 7/9/14 ~ Love!

Here are the names and links of each pattern, along with a little something that each designer has to say about them. 1) Heart Coasters, Appliques, or Bunting by JessieAtHome This is a quick and simple crochet heart that has many uses.

Home and back to work

I will try to catch you up on the goings~on of the past couple weeks. I don’t remember when this was, but the girls were having a cute little tea party. I love Vada’s little pinky sticking up. I know I shared with you when the girls were going outside to make art. Here is the portrait of Kyla they made. When I went out to bring them lunch, Kyla was laying on the driveway and Vada was tracing her. … Read more

Farmers Market Hexagon Bag AKA The Grand Old Flag Bag

The town farmers market is finally open for the season! I LOVE going to the farmers market, and I love using re~usable bags. For years I have been using the tote bags you can buy at the grocers, but this year I am making a market bag! This market bag has a hexagon base, a mesh side, and a long shoulder strap on top! I have chosen the super simple chain and slip st mesh for the side because it works so well for market bags, and I like the look. On our first outing to the market with the bag this morning, my daughter Vada dubbed it the “Grand Old Flag Bag.”

There are so many things I should be doing today. I think I will make a new pattern instead.

Knit one, Crochet too.

Hello!! I have been knitting and crocheting like mad lately. I have been so busy that I haven’t written to you in a few days. Sometimes I forget to multitask. 😉 And let’s not talk about the fact that my facebook page is beeping like mad at me right now as the other Admins of the knitting group I am in are seriously distracting me with a conversation almost entirely in “stickers” (those silly little images you can add into … Read more

My-awesome-mail

I’m in print!

Remember when my Octie blanket won second place at the CGOA Design Competition? Well, I had a few publishers ask about buying the pattern. I decided to go with Crochet! magazine, as they are the magazine that all CGOA members receive, and I liked the idea of this pattern being in actual print, not only online. I wanted to be able to hand my parents a copy of the magazine and say “Look what I did!!” 🙂 Today I received a … Read more

Finishing up

I have been working on finishing up various UFOs I have floating about. I should have some fun finished items to share with you soon.

I should have the pattern up for you by the end of the month. 🙂 ©Copyright 2014 Jessie … Read more

Kyla-and-Vada-for-Red-Heart

Look for the good

I am focusing on the good right now. So let’s start with this. Kyla and Vada have made their Red Heart debut! They both helped me with some kid craft patterns Red Heart hired me to create for them, and we had so much fun. I took so many pictures that I was asked to use them for 2 guest posts on Red Heart’s blog. Pretty nifty. Vada helped me with the tassel necklace made with Red Heart Sizzle. Here … Read more

Join-as-You-go for joining Grannies

This is a great way to join your granny motifs while you work them, eliminating the extra time of joining them at the end, and cutting down on the number of ends you need to weave in!

Flower to Hexagon Granny Motif

Nearly 5 years after creating the Flower to Hexagon Granny pattern ~ my first pattern I shared with you ~ it is still my most popular! So I thought it was about time I made a video and a chart to go along with the pattern, as both have been requested several times through the years. I actually made a few videos. The first and second can be found here and are for the first 3 rounds that create the … Read more
