Plants in Winter

Reba pointed me to an Etsy site where there were patterns for crocheted plants. The ones that caught my eye were cactus, African violets and bamboo. Here is my first attempt at the Lucky Bamboo. I bought the patterns from the Esty site,
called PlanetJune. Take a look around.

The patterns are all very well written and the designs replicate actual plants. She even provides the scientific names. I started with a small potted cactus, Gasteria,  "Ox Tongue Plant", the little one on the table. I hope to have a collection of "pots" on my table. I also thought that they would be fun to take in the camper, put on the picnic table, and no worry about their survival.

Wintertime Project begins

As the winter progresses, so does the Garden Afghan or some such name. The colors of the Woolease
chunky yarn were selected for previous projects, rug, placemats, mug rugs, and others, but they are working nicely together so far. The colors also happen to coincide with duvet colors on the bed where the afghan will come to rest. Twenty blocks like the 4 seen in the picture will complete the piece. Hopefully spring will come as I wrap this up and get back to weaving. 

Valentine Love Birds

With Valentine's Day coming up soon, I decided it was time to make a new Valentine Card Print.  There's something about birds and tree branches that I've always loved, so I came up with this design.  If you would like more information or to see more views, you can visit my etsy shop at: RebasPrints.etsy.com
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY EVERYONE!
