This week I’ve made up my mind. I am going to focus on finishing up three blankets. One is for my little Dylan man, and the other two are for Christmas.

All of the hexagons are crocheted, and stitched together in rows. The rows just need stitched onto the blanket, and then it needs a finished edging.

The granny-bursts are also crocheted and stitched together. I have just two rows to add onto the blanket, and then I need to crochet a finishing edge too .

After Dylan saw Agnes’ scrappy blanket, he requested one of his own. I have just two more colors to go, and a few more hours, and this one should be done too.

I also have another three projects in the works, and those are all Christmas presents too. Better get back to it. I hope to accomplish this goal by the weekend’s end.

June was a funny month. I think it rained almost every day, and that gave me a little more time to work on my ongoing projects.

I’m still working on a few Christmas gifts. I’m so close to having three of them finished.

The multi-hued Hexagon gift is coming along nicely.

This cozy grey blanket is so close to being done. We’ve been binge-watching The Killing on netflix, and I’ve been binge-crocheting right along with it.

I finished a few little projects. I’ve been working on a few more cushions for our bedroom.

I made a pretty African Flowers pillow, and then got to work on another mandala.

The multi-hued mandala is a perfect weekend project. They crochet quickly.

I made two matching ones, so I can make another cushion, whenever I get around to buying some poly-fil.

Mandalas are a great way to practice and learn new crochet stitches. I crocheted a triple crochet row, and then finished it off with a double-triple crochet edging.

Now to leave the house, get supplies, and finish this up. Maybe later in the week, it is going to be crazy hot today.

I also started and finished a scrappy little blanket for Miss Agnes.

I gathered up some scrappy yarn, crocheted till it was all gone. This blanket came together in two evenings, and it is pretty tiny.

The Miss was snuggling up in the blanket as I was adding the finishing binding.

This lil’ scrappy blanket turned out super-cute, and it is just right for Agnes.

Now if I can just convince her to take a little nap.

The month of May was spent working on ongoing projects.

Right now I’m working on three Christmas blankets…

The Granny-burst blanket is coming along. I’m down to crocheting the last four rows.

The extra cozy grey blanket is coming along nicely.

I’m crocheting hexagon after hexagon for a bright and cheery blanket.

I tried my hand at making a Mandala.

I think I’m going to turn it into a cushion. Maybe I’ll make a few more.

I finally finished the African Flowers blanket.

The African Flowers blanket took me about six months to complete.

It was a fun project to work on.

I love the bright colors along the soft grey stitches.

So that makes two blankets complete, and ready to go for Christmas. Just six more to go, well, maybe a few more…

I need to clean my craft table… It is getting a bit cluttered. So is the rest of the house, but who wants to clean when there is crafting to be had.

Looking over my photos for the month, I wasn’t working on any little projects. I have a bunch of Christmas present projects going on though.

I have four projects in progress right now, and three more that have yet to get started.

I’ve started working on a Soft Grey blanket for a gift. It is coming along nicely. I work on it a row at a time whenever I have a chance. I’m using RedHeart Grey Heather Yarn, and double-crocheting all of the rows. I love this shade of yarn, and I have used it on several projects.

I’ve also started another Happy Hexagon blanket for a gift.

I can’t remember if this is the third or fourth one that I have made. I love this blanket pattern. It comes together quickly, and the colors are random and fun.

I did (finally) get one gift finished…

The Mod Grannysquare blanket is done!

This one is a gift, but I love the look of it so much, I have to make one for our house too.

I started this one last year. I can’t remember just when I started it, but I really am pleased with the final outcome. The bright colors pop, and it is extra warm and cozy too.

I completed a few little projects during the month of March. I spent most of my time working on Christmas gifts.

The mod granny-square blanket.

The African flower blanket.

And the granny-burst blanket too. They are all coming along one little square at a time.

James and I got out of the house for a bit, and that called for a trip to Hobby Lobby. I stocked up on some yarn.

I like winding yarn balls while catching up on my favorite shows.

I did complete a few little crochet projects….

I made a cozy catnap blanket in cotton for the big kitty. He loves to sleep on whatever I’m working on, so I made this just for him, so I can get back to work. It is just a big granny-square, and I crocheted on it until I ran out of yarn, He likes it, and loves taking a much needed nap.

I also completed my “Walker Throw”

I started this throw in February, and I made it my Walking Dead project. It came together quickly, and the chunky yarn is extra soft and very cozy.

I made a little scarf for a very dear friend.

I made a few little projects for my Mom too.

I made a super-sunny rainbow scarf. It turned out really cute, I think I might make a few more.

I also made a Happy Hippie Belt/Headband

This little project was super quick to crochet.
