class picture in web albums

that class picture is from mrs. riplogals (spelled wrong probably) 1st grade class at catoosa, ok elementary somewhere in early 1980. i'm the one on the back row in the red sweatshirt... yes... i looked like a boy... i was a tomboy. i've got it posted for some friends to see.

pics of new baby blanket

finished baby afghan for teacher's first grand baby. used the crazy stitch with that red heart banana berry multi yarn and a J hook. turned out real cute and it was super quick. unlike that one i did with the bernat baby softee and a G hook using the catherine wheel stitch! never again! both pics are in the photo album.

Funky Flower Bag

FUNKY FLOWER BAG
This is like the basic hand bag, but i've given it a form to keep it from stretching. the flower patterns are copywrited, so, either use your own pattern or buy "a dozen snazzy doo dads for your kitchen" from annie's attic for the patterns used here.

NOTES: used and H hook and black worseted weight yarn.

row 1: ch 1, 12 sc in ring. join to ch 1 with sl st.

row 3: ch 1, sc in next 2 st, 2 sc in next st, around (24 sts) join with sl st to ch 1.increase 6 st to each round until you're doing sc in the next 10 st, 2 in next sc.

BODY

ch 1, sc around once using front loops for right side to show or back loops for wrong side to show, join with sl st to ch 1. using both loops, go 27 rows up. end off. using plastic canvas, cut a circle to fit the bottom and a strip to fit the side. sew side piece together to form tube. sew circle to bottom to make form. put form inside of purse and whip stitch around top to keep in place.

STRAPS
