sweet weekend wishes

 Happy Friday!!
Well, I have been working away on my sweet kitty embroidery project and I look forward to sharing with you very soon! I still have some hand stitching to do, and then the final touches will be made. So for now, I will just leave you with this teaser.
And, when I haven't been sewing up my hexie flowers, I have been working on this ripple goodness! I have been wanting to make a ripple crocheted blanket for awhile, and I was so inspired by sweet Helen's gorgeous blanket, that I had to make one, too! The pattern is from Lucy of Attic24, and it is fabulous!! You can check her neat ripple pattern, here. So, I am off to crochet, sew, and work on those little hexie flowers. What will you be working on this weekend?

 ♥Mother's Day is next weekend and if you are still looking for something sweet for your mother, there is still time to order from my little shoppe, and get it in time for Mother's Day. All orders placed over the weekend will be sweetly packaged and shipped first thing Monday morning! 

Wishing you a most lovely and creative weekend sweet friends!!

    Three little kittens, washing their mittens...a good example, those hard working kittens! Maybe I should have a mitten washing day too!

    Love the ripple blanket. Makes me want to pick up a crochet hook instead of my favorite crafting tool, the glue gun!

    Ohh, your sweet little kittens, they so remind me of my childhood and my poem books.

    I love Lucy and Attic 24, I haven't visited there for quite awhile, must stop by and see what she's up to..Your blanket is delicious, some of the colors remind me of popsicles, Yum!

    Have a sweet weekend. xo

    I love the sweet kitty embroidery. Those kittens ring a memory--although I can't remember if that was a book illustration when I was a kid or if it was someone else's embroidery. Very sweet.

    Hi Heather,
    I just stumbled on your blog via Vintage Mending and very much enjoyed my visit. Such cuteness! I'm your newest Facebook follower and Google follower. My Etsy shops are closed right now as it's been a busy few months with the arrival of my first grandson. But I'm hoping to open shop soon. I hope you pop by Cottage and Creek and say 'hi'. Enjoy your Sunday ...

    I'm sure your ripple afghan is going to be gorgeous! (I saw some crocheted eggs - vintage - over the weekend, and I have to say, yours were SO much better!)
