Pilgrims Sampler Apron
Pilgrim’s Sampler Apron This apron idea came out of feeling inspired by all of the beautiful ways creators are using Granny Squares to make things like sweaters, skirts, jackets, hot pads, everything! I love the fun and retro feel that comes with adding colorful granny squares to a project. As I was crocheting the squares for this apron, I couldn’t help but think of my Grandma Sherrie, who taught me to crochet and who was also a wonderful cook. After making a few of these Granny Squares, I thought that combining the Granny squares into a sewing project for an apron would be a fun and creative fusion of crochet…

Waffle Stitch Pillows
As soon as the bustling excitement of Halloween is over, I find myself tidying my home and reaching for all of the details that add coziness and warmth. Cooler temperatures have crept in and my way of welcoming each season in its time is to create soft and comfortable spaces. Waffle stitch for crochet is one of my favorite stitches. It’s not too difficult to learn and once you have it, you’ll love it’s repetition and soothing texture. These pillows work up more quickly than they seem because we will only be crocheting the front panel and then using our sewing skills to make a zippered back. A sewing machine…

Harvest Grain Bin
A Beginner friendly crochet pattern Everywhere you look, at this beautiful time of year, you’ll see little reminders. Clues, that no matter who we are, we have abundance. Trees full of apples, peaches, and plums. Gardens heavy with tomatoes, corn, peppers, zucchinni, Zucchinni, and more zucchinni. Flowers blooming their last hurrah. Rainbow trout splashing at the surface of lakes and deer grazing in meadows with a kings crown of antlers. Stacks of firewood piled high and bottles of preserves and canned goods fill our home pantries again.

Make Lemonade!
There are likely few dreams as big as those of a tiny entrepreneur sitting behind a lemonade stand. The ideas of production and advertising seem to grow larger than life along with the list of summer luxuries that might come with “making it big” from lemonade sales. Pool passes, soda, candy, carnival, and movie tickets, fireworks! The possibilities seem almost endless. It seems that it can’t really be summer if one of my children doesn’t ask me, “Can we make some lemonade?” In recognition of the the hard work that goes into any big dream and the hope that we all might take a moment to stop at a roadside…
