In my blog I plan to chat about nature, crafts, baking, gardening, beekeeping, family, and whatever else seems appropriate at the time. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Granny Bees

I thought I'd show you some pics of things that some of the talented women I hang with have made. This group is known as The Granny Bees.

This cable knit sweater was a work in progress when I took this pic, but it's now done.

Blog stalker Beth P. can finish a project like this in a few days. Rumor is she can knit in the dark.






knitted lamb with shawl...I want a shawl like that! I believe BP made this too.




fingerless mitts - RJ were those yours?



grannies by RJ



hexagons by Margaret





Then, last week on Wednesday and Thursday, Ali Strebel came to our town and taught a rug hooking class including several applique' techniques. I didn't take the class, but I stopped by to say hi and visit a bit. This was one of the pattern choices. I didn't get a pic of the other one, or the completed projects...did anyone complete them?



And these are some of the rug hooking and applique' projects that these women brought for show and tell.









This is something I made...



No silly, not the whole thing...just this little scrabble bunny tile. (calm down Blog Stalker KE...I wasn't going to take credit for your bunny!)

















Talented ladies, huh?

    I think these gals need me to be BFFs with... They are soooo talented and surely can only make so many things for their loved ones...if any of them (especially the quilter or the cable knit sweater maker) need a new BFF to give these beautiful treasures to I am so available :)
    maybe Hubby & I should move to K... :)

    Love the rugs - I would hate to use them so as not to get the ruined - and yes, your tile def. completes the bunny...and i think Beth P. has made some knitting soul swapping deals somewhere - that knitting is GORGEOUS!
