Hi Folks



I am very happy, it is spring and most of all I am crocheting again!!!!  The last 18 months were a difficult time for me as my mother was experiencing a difficult time with Alzheimer’s and took up a lot of time.  Sadly, she died the beginning of July at 89 years, it was a beautiful peaceful passing and we are all grateful for that.

Here are some examples of crochet I have completed in the last couple of weeks
