Color Crush


I am ♥ swooning ♥ over this color combination right now. I spotted some cheap terra cotta/salmon colored fabric recently when I was picking up supplies for Style School for only a few dollars a yard. I think I will make a frilly mini-skirt once we move and I'm able to dig out my sewing machine. I have a turqouise sweater with a bow on it that will match perfectly!

I also love the way the terra cotta looks with slate gray.

We had to dig ourselves out!!


No, really, we did!! There is a crazy amount of snow here. My body hurts from shoveling. I was snowed in all weekend! With my craft room being packed up and us being snowed in, most projects were forced to a halt. I did make a run for it after we dug out yesterday...I was on a mission to find Reese Pieces...Mmmm! Above is a crappy photo from my cell phone of my ride in to work this morning...that's the interstate. You can just imagine what the rest of the roads are like!!

I did manage to keep myself busy though. We watched a few movies and a Ghost Adventures marathon. I also spent a few hours, yes hours, tagging my favorites on Ravelry. I had 634 favorites saved ...with no tags. I am a bit OCD sometimes and I over organize. Soooo all favs are now tagged and easy to find. Woot!! Take a look...there's some good stuff in there.

My current blanket is awaiting more yarn. I searched 2 towns for a few colors from Red Heart and Lion Brand yarn to continue but to no avail. I ended up ordering the colors I needed and they should be here this week. So I began working on the kitty-square blanket. That was a quick crochet. I have to block and weave in my ends and I will share.
Edited: Oh yea, and I finally finished the Twilight Saga!! Breaking Dawn is by far my favorite. I love seeing through Bella's new eyes. ;) What is your favorite book?

And I've come to the realization that I have been blogging more often...maybe it's because I am blogging about nonsense and things that I want to make because I can't make anything. That's okay though right? Either way, I want to welcome all of my new followers from the last few weeks!! hi to you!
