Sew Crafty Friday

Yes I'm posting this on Thursday, but I'll be away Friday so that's why it is early. ;o)

Be sure to stop by Shereen's blog to see what crafty things other bloggers are up to.

Here are my crafty contributions for this week.

Another towel! I get bored with the same color after a while so I bought this hot pink craft cotton. I have another ball of verigated to use next time. Then I'll start over using up the leftover yarn I still have.

I was in the mood for making more cards this week. I was going to do my Christmas cards up but, I realized that I needed a few supplies replenished. I'll make that an August project to work on.

Instead I made these card fronts. I have to cut white cardstock for the cards and then the front is ready to stick on. I can't take credit for the design. My friend made simillar card and I scraplifted it from her. I have some other ideas from her too, so that will give me crafty things to make for Fridays.

WooHoo!!! I actually have something to share for 'Sew Crafty Friday' this week.

Stop by Shereen's blog to find out what crafty things other bloggers are working on.

I knit this towel. I just need to sew the button on it & attach the towel poem....

And these 2 dish cloths......

It took me a week to do these. Normally I don't knit that fast, but these are for a friend's birthday. Talk about getting cramped hands!! Ouch ! lol ;o)

It's Friday again!! :o)

This past week I made a Father's day card for my father-in-law. I think I may reproduce it and make masculine birthday cards. The cardstock is from "Stampin'Up!". The colors are tan, brown, and mellow moss. I can't remember the actual name for the colors, just that they are SU.
I had tried to start another towel using my own pattern. Not such a good idea! lol ;o) I'm going to unravel it....again....and start again using the pattern I used for the other one.

Here is what I've been up to lately in the crafty department. Knitting!! :o)


This is a towel. I still need to sew on the button, and then it will fasten on to the stove handle or fridge handle. I have a little poem that goes along with it.

I suppose you might be wondering
what this little towel is for.
You button it through the handle
of your refrigerator door,
or maybe on the oven, any likely place
It's just for wiping fingers
and not for hands and face.
So if you get them drippy
there's no need to frown or scowl.
Just reach across and wipe them
on this pretty little towel.

I've also knit 4 dish cloths. It takes me roughly 2 hours to knit a dish cloth. I'm not sure how long it takes me to make a towel, but longer than 2 hours. lol ;o)


I use Handicrafter Cotton by Bernat to make these. I have quite a bit of yarn still left so I've started another towel. This color is called 'Rainbow'.

This week I decided to knit some dishcloths. :o) I used the same color yarn for both, but in my pictures it looks like they are different shades.

The first one I did has 3 crosses on it. Go here for the pattern.


This is the star dishcloth. You can find the pattern here.


Hmmmm, I wonder what I will work on this week?? ;o)
