Enjoyed your podcast 😊
Enjoyed your video
Where do you get your basket patterns?. I want to make some. A woman, I know, has arthritis bad. Her doctor told her to crochet or knit every day in order for her to be able to continue using her hands. I love your baskets! Your Chatalane is beautiful! Beautiful stitching as always. Have a terrific week.
Love those baskets. You are very talented.
Loving the Big Bird Basket lol
Karla I could swear I posted a comment yesterday! I love your baskets, both are very pretty, I really like the yellow and orange one with the different yarn that’s a different texture-it’s really beautiful. I think maybe YouTube deleted my comment because I mentioned a store. I know you can find those crochet things really cheap from an online store. They have 5 for less than $2, there’s a lot of different colors, and sizes to choose from. I’ve been buying from them for over a year, no shipping charges (some things have shipping charges). I’ll email you more info. You can buy just about anything and if you don’t like it, it comes broken or you get the wrong item they usually give you credit and tell you to keep the item. I hope you check it out . All your WIPs are pretty. See you next Sunday-have a great week Karla.
Thank you for coming to lunch. Was great to see you ❤
Hi Karla! Sounds like you had a great retreat luncheon and great company. What a sweet gift from Rachel. I am so happy that you are enjoying your basket making. I really like the one made from the eyelash yarn. The colors are working up really nicely. Beautiful stitching and nice progress. Hi Delilah! Beautiful collar on her. Looking forward to seeing more of your progress. Take care. Love and hugs to you and Delilah. Dawn in TX
Playing catch up enjoyed seeing all your projects and hearing about the retreat have a wonderful evening and happy stitching 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
