    Very pretty, Kozy!

     

    My best crafts are at my Mom's house. I made her a grapevine basket, complete with a handle, and a grapevine tree. The tree, I actually weaved it around a tomatoe cage. She keeps it inside. She had a new porch built, and went and bought an expensive grapevine tree. I asked her why, and she said she wanted one out there on the porch, but, didn't want to put mine there. She wanted it in the house. She is hard to please, sometimes, so, it makes me feel good to actually think I made something she really liked.

    The basket she decorates with the seasons. I have a pic of making the basket, but, not completely finished.

    Here is a Christmas Wreath I helped DD make years ago. I have made many myself, but, given most away. I have two on the outside doors, but, too dark and cold to take a pic of. This one is on the inside door.

    All your crafts are so pretty!  You should all be proud....and tree.....I love your quilts.  "Raggy" is my favorite BTW!  I crochet afghans but give most of them away.  I'm working on one now so if this thread is still around I'll post it when I'm done.  Thanks for sharing!

    I found a pic of the grapevine basket on the computer. I did have one of it finished, with Quigley in it.

    It has a lot of green vine in it there, but, it drys out. They are easier to work with green. But, harder to find.

    Tree , your quilts are beautiful. Everyone's things are fantastic.

    Tree, the last quilt my MIL gave me was a Maple Leaf.

    I wrote this once, and have no idea where it went.

    These are scrubbies I have been making for many years. I've made thousands of them!  They are 3 1/2 inches across and  one inch thick.  I have made many crafts, but don't have digitial pictures of any others right now.

    Here are 3 knives my DH made and I did the scrimshaw on the handles.  The bear stamp on the blade is one I designed and my DH had it made into a stamp.

    Oh my, I am so impressed with all the talented people on here.

    Those who can post their pictures on here, have a talent all by itself. DH got me a digital camera several years ago and I've not used it. I gave it to dd so I will have to get her to show me how to make pix now, I guess. LOL

    Tree, I love quilts and quilting. I have several tops I have made over the years. I'm thinking I will get a quilting machine some day.

    Oldegirl, was it you who made the scrunchies? What are they made of? I like those, too.

    And all you cross-stitchers, embroideries, etc, I love your work. I don't go to the crafters area because I'm not that good at it. Thanks, Kozy for posting this here.

    Oldgirl:  What are they made out of?

    Can you give me the pattern?  Please?

    Re: Craft Your proud Of

    The scrubbies are made from nylon net.  I don't have a pattern---I just do them!    It's too hard to try to write a pattern, because I have learned some little tricks through the years, and I'd have to show you!  I haven't made too many since I got my laptop two years ago, but I got heck this year because my DD's dept at work were upset because I didn't send any for them to buy for stocking stuffers!   And I haven't had any for the gift shop that I sell them at, so she is a little upset, too! 

    So now, I have to get more net and get busy and get off this dang computer, I guess!   I can't make too many a day, because the net is really hard on my hands, especially in the winter. 

    I can't sell them on here, but you could PM me if you are interested.  Or my email addy is--
