Back and Gone Again

Well, I came back from visiting family and friends and now I am gone, again!  Summer is wonderful, but ooooh so busy.  I wouldn't change anything either.  I loved visiting everyone and I am currently loving the beach.   The ocean is absolutely beautiful and the weather is perfect.  We had a little rain the first couple days, but today is gorgeous.

The unfinished card swap is well underway.  I think I am the only one who hasn't completed the cards yet.  My mind is racing with ideas and these cards are at the top of my 'to do' list when I get to my cave.

One of my summer projects is to start crocheting Christmas presents.  Crocheting is another of my hobbies and passions and I crochet almost every day.  I love these coasters.  Last year I made twelve and sent them to my sister so all the residents in her assisted living facility would have a coaster at the dining table for the holidays.  This year I will make sets of four green wreaths with red berries for my friends.





The coasters were crocheted with a cotton yarn that has a silver thread going through it.  The cotton yarn absorbs moisture and is washable. 


I'm also crocheting a smaller coaster for my car cup holder which I'll post as soon as I get a picture.  These coasters are so cute! 

Ok, that's it for now.

Take care,
Kathy
