Mimi's Crochet

I have been missing lately and I apologize but if any of you lovelies ever need me, feel free to post to my wall here or message me! I do custom orders, like this photo, and I am happy to hear any ideas. Hope you've all been well!

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day and prayers!!

Happy Mother's day to all the mothers, expectant mothers, stepmothers, foster mothers, to the wonderful fathers playing both roles, and to those mothers who have lost a child, or are trying very hard to conceive!

Sorry I have been AWOL lately, but this blanket and another project that I can't wait to show you have been taking up all my time!

Loved taking this guy out today! This is the same pattern of the phoenix I posted a while back, but much better pictures!

I am so lucky to be living my dream and creating beautiful things!

Collective Evolution

Gave this little girl her wings this morning! Now off to the salt mines, everyone enjoy your Saturday!

Happy Easter everyone! I hope you are enjoying today with loved ones! Here is this little gem I shared a progress pic of a while ago, since it really is his holiday ;)

Sorry I have been AWOL lately! I have been trying to catch up on everything, and managed to finish this fella up! I am thrilled to get him off to his new home tomorrow! Wish I could have gotten better pics, but the weather has not cooperated!

Spent today on the deck working on this little guy!

Just finished this little guy, and he wanted to play in the grass before being packed up and shipped out!

This is the way I want to work on orders! Happy Monday all!

So how did everyone spend Pi Day? I worked my day job, read a bit, and worked on some more pieces to my Lego Blanket.

Any early guesses on what he is?

I am so sorry guys I am late announcing both the new name and the contest winner! I came down sick and have been trying to recuperate!

I did not choose any of the names suggested because I plan to offer the entire winter set of patterns, and none of them work for the entire set. I decided on the Allison Collection, currently including the hat, gloves, and scarf, but possibly more to come!

However, I did do a drawing and the winner was Anita Comte Hardesty! Congratulations! I will whip up your gloves this week and try to have them out to you by the end of the week!

Hey just a reminder, today is the last day to enter the contest for a free pair of the fingerless gloves! No more entries will be considered after 6 pm today, and the winner will be announced on Friday!

So my best friend just sent this picture of her little one in one of the hat and blanket sets that I made him! Thanks for letting me share Colton with the world Genny Heath. Without further ado, here is your daily dose of cuteness!

Wow! We soared past 50 likes yesterday (actually hit 60!). And now I would like to celebrate! I am going to run a contest (which is in no way affiliated with or endorsed by Facebook).

I need a name for these fingerless gloves, and I want your help! To enter the contest, you must be a fan of my page, and enter your suggestion in the comments on this post. If I choose your name, you will receive a free pair of these fingerless gloves. If none of the names "speak to me" I will put all the names in a hat and draw one out.

Contest is open for submissions until 6 p.m. on Wednesday March 4th. A decision will be made by Friday at 5 pm.

Today is my wonderful nephew's fourth birthday party! I finally got to give him something I have been waiting to give him for MONTHS! One is the pretty picture I took before I wrapped it, the other is him holding it after he unwrapped it!

Up late tonight, watching Criminal Minds and working on an order. Feeling a whole lot like this little fellow :)

I know we have more snow coming tomorrow, but today I am dreaming of SPRING! And of course, that also means Spring Training!

So my wonderful Mario obsessed nephew will be 4 in 2 short days! And it reminded me that I have not shared these lovely fellows with you all!

Here is what I was so excited to show everyone last night! Any suggestions for a name for the pattern on these guys?

I've been busy today, designed a couple pieces last night and today, using the yarn pictured below. Can't wait to show them off, but not until tomorrow! How has everyone else spent their weekend?

What is everyone up to today? I am running errands and working on my handsome nephew's hat in spare moments.

Welcome everybody! This is my first attempt, so please bear with me as I get everything set up!
