I am moving this blog.
New name and new address is perfectly Knotted @  http://perfectlyknotted.blogspot.com/
My focus no longer is painted items, I am branching out with more about crochet, sewing, cooking, and of coarse always painting.  My blog will hopefully become more useful to folks who read it and more fun (for me and you).  It also is meant to coordinate with my Etsy shop perfectlyKnotted.  Come on over and by all means bookmark the change.  See you soon at "perfectly Knotted"

Such fun making "stuff" for the grand daughters, this is a dress for JuJu and I made a similar version as a shirt for Ally. You girls are such fun. Need to get working on some new crochet items and increase the shop inventory.  I really think I want to add some adult items. I'm thinking maybe cowls and head bands.   This is going to require some serious thinking.  Or maybe not, I should just add them and see what happens.  What do you guys think?   Right now gotta go enjoy the summer sun and heat. Enjoy your weekend.  God keep you safe.

My domesticity continues. I have been sewing some baby blankets, crocheting edges on other blankets and now I am dabbling in baking. My new fav is cupcakes, this flavor being Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Yummy to be sure. Chris loved it, the folks at work liked them and I am amazed with the aroma.....again yummy.

Projects I've been up to...

 It was Julianna's birthday....had to buy toys but so wanted to make her something as well.  Well this is it.  I really love it and she sure looked cute in it.  Wear it well sweet girl.
Blanket auction at church seemed like just the time to try out these two new projects.  Raggedy quilt so cute with the owls and flannel and this fleece blanket with crochet edge.  Both projects I have been waiting to try and a good cause to boot.  Hope everyone else is as pleased with them as I am.

Meet Parker

My newest grandchild.....meet Parker David.  Weighing in at 9lbs 4 oz he is just to cuddly for words.  Sure is the apple of his grandpa's eye.  This makes 4 grandchildren, 2 boys and 2 girls.  We are truly blessed.  This has made for a very busy week and also a most joyous one.  Better get busy with a boy design for my crocheted hats. 

Speaking of crochet and scrapping and painting and sewing....I've been thinking this blog needs a new name.  I am not sure what blogger does in terms of name changes but I really need to look into that.  Sue Paints no longer fits my personality....guess my attention span is just to short for only one craft.
