Craft It Forward.
My niece Melissa (howellherald.blogspot.com) had this on her blog and I decided that this would be a fun activity to join.
Craft it forward
The first three people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2- What I create will be just for you.
3- It'll be done this year.
4- You have no clue what it's going to be.
5- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
The catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 3 people who do the same on your blog. The first 3 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it! And if you could include your address with your post, that would be most helpful!
Now lets see if there are any takers!

More 2009 Finishes
It seems that there has been several babies born these last few weeks. I needed to get busy and make my burp clothes that are in great demand. Now to box them up and have them ready to take to the Post Office.My Project Linus Blanket
This is the Flying Triangle Blanket I did for Project Linus. It was a free pattern from the internet. I really liked making this but will decrease my needle size and adjust the boarders to 8 stitches instead of 10. Maybe!
My SIL sent this to me and I thought it was great. With my goal to stay more possitive and optimistic I thought I would share the 15 Maybe's.
15 MAYBE 's
1. Maybe . . . We were supposed to meet the wrong peoplebefore meeting the right one so that, when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift .
2. Maybe . . . When the door of happiness closes,another opens; but, often times, we look so long at the closed door that we don't even see the new one which has been opened for us.
3. Maybe . . . It is true that we don't know what we have until we lose it, but it is also true that we don't know what we have been missing until it arrives.
4. Maybe . . . The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
5. Maybe . . . The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; after all, you can't go on successfully in life until you let go of your past mistakes, failures and heartaches.
6. Maybe . . . You should dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go, be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you dream of and want to do.
7. Maybe . . . There are moments in life when you miss someone -- a parent, a spouse, a friend, a child -- so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real. So once they are around you, appreciate them more.
8. Maybe . . . The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
9. Maybe . . . You should always try to put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that something could hurt you, it probably will hurt the other person, too.
10. Maybe . . . You should do something nice for someone every single day, even if it is simply to leave them alone. Profound!
11. Maybe . . Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart; but if it doesn't, be content that it grew in yours.
12. Maybe . . . Happiness waits for all those who cry, allthose who hurt, all those who have searched, and all thosewho have tried, for only they can appreciate the importanceof all the people who have touched their lives .
13. Maybe . . . You shouldn't go for looks; they can deceive; don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile, because it takes only asmile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile .
14. Maybe . . . You should hope for enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enoughsorrow to keep you human, and enough hope to make you happy.
15. Maybe . . . You should try to live your life to the fullest because when you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling but when you die, you can bethe one who is smiling and everyone around you crying.
