Happy Saturday to you all. As many of you know I announced the Top Commenter for 2014 a few weeks back. With Corbin being here and being sick I'm just now getting around to getting something made for her (Lisa). I had several things in mind. However, after getting out my crochet hooks and watching some YouTube videos I ran across this gorgeous lacy, frilly scarf and fell in love with it. I thought the colors were perfect for her. It has all the colors she uses most of the time in her cards, she love Mermaids and these colors reminds me of the sea. So I made it using the same colors as Melanie from IHeartStitcing . Here is a Link to her video with step by step instructions. Ruffle Scarf I did not want to post the scarf until Lisa received it. It was delivered today. Lisa I sure hope you enjoy your scarf and would love to see a pic of you wearing it. Hint Hint!! Recipe: Crochet Hook Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable Yarn, Tidal Video Tutorail   Ruf...

Thanks to all my wonderful blogging buddies I hit my first goal of 250 Followers. I took my bath and came in and thought I would go through more of the comments. I just hit the back button and the page refreshed and I saw the number went to 250. I thought I would take a break and do this post. I post the WINNER's  later on today. Again, thanks to each and everyone of you. Hugs and Love Nana

Well my friends I was so hoping to end the 250 follower today. It's getting late and I have a busy day tomorrow so I must start winding down. I will check first thing in the morning. Once I hit the 250 followers (only 2 away) I will then proceed to weed out and delete all the comments that have not adhered to the rules. This afternoon I started this process and was AMAZED at the comment where people stated they were a follower and they are not, Comments they had shared the post or added my blinkie etc and they had not. GO FIGURE!!! Deleted over 75 comments today alone. Once that is complete where I have a true number of comment to choose from I will announce the winner. Most likely will be Tuesday if 250 is hit tomorrow as it will take some time to finish going through all the comments and I do have other things I must complete tomorrow. Hope you all had a great weekend. Hugs Nana

So close to the 250 followers needed to do the drawing. Who knows by days end maybe I will be able to announce the winner. Hugs Nana
