Happy Valentine's Day
Tell your Sweetheart that
you love them!
With this super easy
Valentine's Day Banner
Turn an everyday cake plate into a
pretty candle display
I also added some pretty plastic
ruby's and some white cake doilies!
ruby's and some white cake doilies!
I would take the ribbon off when lighting!
The Banner is really easy to make:
Ch 2
Row 1-wk 1sc in 2nd ch from the hook, ch1
Row 2-wk 1sc in each st, ch 1 turn
Row 3-wk 2sc in each st, (4 sts) ch1 turn
Row 4- wk 1sc in each st, ch 1 turn
Row 5-wk 2sc in the first st,
1sc in the next 2 sts,
wk 2sc in the last st, ch1 turn
Row 5-sc in the next 6 sts, ch 1 turn
Row-6 wk 2sc in the 1st st,
1sc in the next 4 sts,
2 sc in the last st, ch1 turn
Continue repeating your rows.
This is just a matter of increasing your stitches in every other row.
I ended my triangle with 28
stitches in my last row,
you can make it as big or
as small as you want!
When I had it as big as I wanted,
I sc all the way around. I did mine in red, so you can't see it very well...
I think it gives it a really clean look!
I made a long chain using red and
white yarn together
I chained about 280 or so, then
I sewed each little flag on.
The letters were just sewed on
after I chained them.
after I chained them.
I made some little curly Q's by
chaining about 20 and
chaining about 20 and
sc in each stitch, I made
3 all different length's.
3 all different length's.
You could make it for a party,
a baby's room,
a baby's room,
a big team flag for a little boy's room.
This would be really cute at a baby
shower for babies name reveal!
This one I sc all the way around, ch 2,
wk 3hdc in the 1st st,
slip stitch in the next,

repeat all the way around.
This is really pretty and perfect
for a little girl!

Happy Crocheting!!

This video is so cute...little boy eating ice cream cone
A friend of my husband has a grand daughter who loves
"Hello Kitty"
her grandmother found this pattern online...so I
made it for her...she is also having
a hard time because her baby teeth are coming out...so
I put a pocket on her little dress...now she can
put her tooth in it before going to sleep at night!
Now she can sit Kitty on her night stand and wait
for the Tooth Fairy to come!

Christmas in Leavenworth Washington
What do you do when the kids can't come home for Christmas...that's
what my husband and I had happen to us this year...this was our
first Christmas alone...so we took advantage of the
situation...we packed our bags...and visited
one of the most beautiful places in Washington!
Leavenworth
The drive was amazing...snow suddenly
surrounded us...all you could see was
snow...for some people it's no
big deal...but I was raised in
Southern California...all we got there
for Christmas, was sun and more sun!
So I was in heaven!
Leavenworth is a city in Chelan County, Washington.
It is part of the Wenatchee-East Wenatchee Metropolitan Area.
The entire town center is modelled on a Bavarian village.
This little town is like being in a real
Christmas Village!
The shopping is awesome and the
food is even better...
Our first dinner was at a wonderful Italian restaurant named Visconti's
The food was so good!! If you go make sure to make a reservation.
We had a wonderful
romantic dinner for two
Lemon Chicken
For dessert we had a delicious Tiramisu!
(Notice how my husband has his hand on the spoon already!)
The gazebo is the heart of Leavenworth...
They play Christmas music all day and at night
the lights come on and it is truly an unbelievable sight.
Our second day there was
gorgeous...the sun came out and it was
a picture perfect day!
You can take a carriage or
sleigh ride!
There is a Nutcracker Museum
I have never seen so many
nutcrackers in my life!
My husband looked at every
nutcracker with me and
never complained once!
This is a statue near the place we
stayed...I only came up to the knee cap!
See what I mean...this thing was massive!
Right after this picture was taken, I
fell trying to get out of all that
snow...my husband had just
turned off the camera...
Thank goodness
He also said "don't fall"!
On our first night we were walking back to
our room...and we hear this pretty music
and we looked down the road and
there was a church and they were
doing a live Nativity!
This was magical...snow was lightly
falling and we were watching
this beautiful Nativity!
On Christmas Eve we
attended the Christmas Service...
where we sang all those
wonderful Christmas Songs!
Before the Christmas Service we had
another great romantic dinner this time at
Cafe Mozart's
The food was fantastic
but again if you go make a reservation!
If you've never been it's a place you should
go...it really is special!
I bought these in Leavenworth!
This is my one weakness...when I
found these little guys...I just had to have them!
She is one of the dolls from the
Byers Choice Collection
"The Salvation Army"
and he is the changed and happy
"Mr. Scrooge"
Happy New Year
Connie
