It’s not the best picture quality for my insta, but hey, I had to. The husband as been fixing up a mustang (@dawhitecar), and he’s finally gotten to a place where the inside of the car isn’t gross. So, I can sit with him comfortably and work on my stuff too! 🤣 It’s all about the quality time, am I right ladies 🤣? So, while he’s out there buffing the car, I’m sitting comfy inside crocheting. . . On a side note, can you get a buzz from polishing compound? 🤣 . . . . . . . #makerofthings #stringwizard #qualitytimewiththehubby #betterthanlawnchairs #itshumidthough #lifewithacarman https://www.instagram.com/p/ByWDuLaBt2A/?igshid=1s908juipleqi

Hey y’all!!! So, I finally broke down and made the beautiful llama everyone on my personal facebook page has been tagging me to since it came out, lol. While I am SUPER happy with how he turned out, it was a bitch to get to the finish line. Not because the pattern was hard. Not at all. But because it seemed like it took FOR-EV-ER to finish. By the time I was halfway through, I knew I wouldn’t be making another one, lol. Apparently, I am BIG on “instant gratification” or as instant as you can get with crochet/knitting. Who knew?!

All these little guys had a get together on this beautiful day! I wish I could say that I’m out here enjoying it with them but, my kiddos had soccer games today and my youngest had pictures. I had to be there an hour before her game to get them taken! So, I was outside from 9am to 12pm today, which resulted in a wee bit of a sunburn. That may not sound like a biggie but if y’all have seen the few pictures I’ve posted of me, y’all know I’m a super pale person. I’m a pale person because I burn easily and even once a burn tans, I still keep burning over that tan until that burn tans and so on and so forth. So, add that to my body naturally drawing the attention of any blood sucking vampire insect in my vicinity, and I’d rather stay inside, therefore keeping me a super pale person. Needless to say, these adorable crochet bugs are the only kind I like. 🧶 Fun fact #1: I’m scared to death of stick bugs. I woke up to one trying to climb inside of my ear when I was 16. Fun fact #2: I HATE June bugs. 🤷🏻‍♀️That damn noise they make when they fly into things and their creepy sticky legs *shiver*. They’re the only other bug I hate other than mosquitoes. I don’t even hate cicadas and they have sticky legs too, so who the hell knows? People are confusing, lol. . . . . . #yarnaddicted #makerofthings #amigurumi #stringwizard #crochet #crochetbugs #amigurumibugs #whydoiburnsoeasily #beetlesandbugs #yarnart #springiscooliguess #crochet #knit #yarnporn (at Capon Bridge, West Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwfrcbyhTBi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=f02h64nmhlwh

I’ve been trying to crank things out to restock my inventory. Around Christmas I started clearing out my stock to start over with something different. I decided on home decor and stuffies because they’re faster to turn out. I found Lalylala’s book at JoAnn and it’s been worth every penny! So far, it takes me a day to make one little bug, but it’s oh so fun. I’ve found that I get bored easily with super simple patterns, and these are a perfect mix of simple and oh I need to look at the pattern again to see what changes. @lalylaland I’ve already told you, but I’ll say it again, You are a Goddess!!! . . . . . . . #amigurumi #crochetersofinsta #knit #iturnstringsintothings #laylaland #bugs #butterflies #beetles #hookerart #yarnaddicted #makerofthings https://www.instagram.com/p/BwULdplhiKi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=la7d49z9898a

Worked up another pattern! It doesn’t need much of an introduction because the words on the pillow explain it enough! How do you like it? . . . . . . . #redwhiteandblue #iturnstringsintothings #godblessamerica #ingodwetrust #rememberwhy #crochetersofinsta #knit #happyhooker #stringwizard #havefaith #americaproud #handmadehome #handmadehomedecor (at Capon Bridge, West Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwK41sXB-yn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1uzhaq33ubros

So, I’ve been MIA a lot here lately, I’m sorry about that, I was in a funk. But then a friend of mine wanted me to design and make something for her. That’s right guys! She wanted this BEAUTY right here! I am SUPER proud of this make. I had to Math a lot, because HELLO! what is a flag throw if it’s not as dimensionally accurate as you can get it?! I damn near cried when I had to finally let this baby go to it’s home. But do you know what the best part of being a maker is? I can freaking make another one! 🤣 “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country!” JFK 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 #americathebeautiful #godblessamerica #americaproud #patrioticdecor #patrioticcrocheter #betsyross #crochet #yarntherapy #iturnstringsintothings #redwhiteandblue #historicallyinspired #knit #crochetersofinsta (at Capon Bridge, West Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvh8_4Xhzui/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1n9cnjx6xhq13

I know I’m late, but it’s been a busy day, lol. But, I wanted to say a big MERRY CHRISTMAS to all of y’all! From my family to yours, much love to all! This Christmas was alittle different for our family, because on December 13th, our beautiful golden retriever fur baby Leisea, crossed the rainbow bridge. She was almost 11 years old and my husband and I haven’t had a Christmas without her since we’ve been together. So, yeah, it was a wee bit different, but we made it through. But, enough sad crap, lol. Today is the day to remember the birth of our savior and his life of sacrifices, so we can live this beautifully tragic life, and be forgiven for our sins. May God bless you and yours and may you have a Merry CHRISTmas! 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 #merrychristmas #merrychristmas2018 #christoursavior #haveyourselfamerrylittlechristmas #ohchristmastree #awayinamanger #lovethygod #rememberthereasonfortheseason https://www.instagram.com/p/Br1fSYmgXX2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9a311rzknnse

I made this for my mom weeks ago! But, I had to wait to post it until I could give it to her because she didn’t know I was making her anything! 🍁🍂Can I get an amen from my fellow makers that love fall too? Fall is my Mom’s favorite season, as is mine but I love winter too. Big shout out to @littlemonkeysdesign for the beautiful pattern! . . . . . . #falldecor #crochetislife #yarntherapy #fiberfun #autumndecor #wallhanging #surprisepresents (at Hampshire County, West Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp74o8YgpXr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1eninjgizvg28
