My Week in Pictures; October 1-7, 2012

1. My finished one-of-a-kind Tamarified Scarf. (that I spent way too much time on, but loved every minute of it and each time I decided to add to it I couldn’t wait to pick it up and make the next stitch.) I’m happy to report that my sister is the proud owner of my one-of-a-kind Tamarafied scarf.
2. Tamarified sweater coat with hand-dyed flowers. I loved every minute of embellishing this sweater too. (I’m happy to report this sweater now belongs to a lovely lady that fell in love with the sweater and couldn’t live without it)
3. Added a spidery purple and gold flower pin to this sweater that I hand-dyed olive green. (this sweater is now owned by the same lady that purchased the flower embellished sweater coat)
4. Another camo earflap hat. (the proud owner of this hat is my cousin Jill’s son, Kace who looked so adorable in it and it looked like it was made just for him.) I wish I would have thought to take a picture of him. 🙂 Jills daugther Elika (sp?) is the proud owner of the purple variegated earflap hat with flower. Thanks so much Jill for braving the weather to bring your kids out to the Barn Sale, it was so good to see you again.
5. A crochet embellished purple sweater. (I still have this sweater for sale.)
6. Fabric bombed button on a sweater vest. (this one is still for sale.)
7. This sweater was just calling for some fabric covered buttons. (it’s for sale too)
8. Rack of sweaters.
9. Table of crochet goodies,
10. Another view of the table of crochet goodies, (the owl teapot cozies are still for sale)
11. More of the crochet stuff,
12. Me with the booth. (this look didn’t last but about 5 minutes and then the double layer of sweaters and a crocheted hat by moi went on) It was 43 degrees all day long with sprinkles and rain most of the day. Can I say I was very cold? (Well….I guess I just did) 😉
13. Cute shot of the mannequin with the flower embellished sweater.
14. I’m happy to report this sweater went to a beautiful lady who I didn’t get permission to use her photo so I’m not going to show you her face but I can assure you that she was smiling.
15. One of the barns that was on the property where the Barn Sale took place.
16. Open fire pit to warm your fingers and toes during the Barn Sale. (which I never had time to stop and visit; which was a good thing)
17. My friend Dena looked adorable in the purple hat; but I couldn’t convince her she needed one. Thanks Dena for coming out to brave the elements and to visit the Barn Sale.
18. My sweet friend Lanora who just had to have the dahlia flower embellished black hat. This hat looked like it was made especially for her. Thank you Lanora for stopping by to see all of my creations. It was so good to see you again.
19. This is my new friend Deb who braved the darkness with John and me setting up our separate booths with only the light of our van and flashlight. And who came over at the end of the show to buy one of my berets.
20. My crochet friend Lisa had a booth too. I loved seeing all her designs and her vintagey stuff.
21. I had a wonderful and blessed time on Saturday at the Kansas Barn Sale and hope that they invite me back to do the Fall show again. This was my look all day; I can’t believe I worked so hard on getting my hair just right and you should have seen it at the end of the day. To say the least I wore the hat until I arrived home. A special thanks goes out to my dear husband who braved the darkness, dampness, cold and me being grouchy all day. Also to the good people; Josh, Beki, and Stacee who put on the Barn Sale. I was honored to be a part of the sale.

So how have you all been? I’ve missed being here so very much and I love you all. I hope everyone has a wonderful week and now I’m looking forward to getting started on the crochet orders that have been waiting until after the Barn Sale. I’ll talk to you soon.
