Creating Beauty

There are so many beautiful things in the world and the ones that you create with your own hands are definitely a gift from God. Proverbs 31.....check it out! I will be posting the pics of the last two crochet projects I made and they are so adorable.  Wonders can happen when you follow a pattern. Happy Crafting everyone!

Create A Colorful Life


When you love color and light, color and light always surrounds you.  Make things in your life that support color and light. When you are crocheting or knitting always find a way to make sure the color and light shows through in your project!

My Latest Accessory



A smile has always been my best accessory, however yesterday I decided to spice it up a little. I wore this new scarflet to church and it was a hit.  Be daring, be bold, be you :)

My camera is not working


If only you could see the cutest little beanie I made for my two year old this weekend. As soon as I figure out what is up with my camera I will take a pic and make sure you get to see it.  That being said, please do not forget what the reason for the Christmas season is, Christ.  In the event you do forget ask your accountability partners to remind you so you do not fall prey to the commercialism of this holiday. Be the "little drummer boy/girl" and march to your own beat. Give personalized gifts and be thoughtful.  Happy Holidays.

Time to Stitch......Who has it?

Sometimes when you think about all the time you have, lol, what time?  Sounds funny doesn't it.  I love to stitch and most days if I get to it before 10pm at night consider it a blessing.  I have three children, three and under at home and I am a business owner and a stay at home mom so finding/making time to stitch projects for sale and pleasure is a challenge.  However, it needs to be said that I do believe that God has given me these talents and therefore I press on.  I have gifts already lined up to make for the holidays and if I do not get started soon, it will definitely be considered rushing to the finish.  Thanks for listening if there is anybody out there......Here are some pics of things I have made.

Intro to Sanity

This blog is being created to provide an outlet for the crafts I have taught myself and hone in order to sell or produce wonderful handmade things for friends, family and strangers alike.  I have known how to knit and crochet since I was a teenager however it was not until I was pregnant with my first child that I started to take the skill a little more seriously.  And then, after having 3 children in 4 years it became an outlet and something to calm my nerves at times when the sit in the bathroom tactic just did not work.  As I go forward there are so many things to show you but it needs to be said initially that I am noooooo expert at this and everything you see here I have either reproduced or wrote my own pattern for.  As I cite others work, I will post the links where it came from and of course I will do my best to post the patterns for the original work.  Enjoy and if I can answer any questions or help someone along the way I am more than happy to do so...
