Project Pinterest - Kindle Cover and Dishcloth





I finally found time to join in the fun!

Here's my Kindle Cover I made. (This was actually my second attempt as the first one was too small. However, the instructions are for a Kindle 3, which is bigger than my touch, so I miscalculated.)

I love how the inside fabric is so cheery.  I need that this time of year.

And this dish cloth is so cute and colorful! When I repinned these on Pinterest, 33 more people pinned them after me. I'm working on a few more besides this one.

More cheery colors!

Can't wait to see what everyone else is doing.

Balance

I've been enjoying my time not having to take a picture every day. I set crochet aside for the most part last year but can now be more balanced between the two.

I surprised my good friend, Kerri, with this handbag on Saturday.




She loves it and I love that she does! Being able to create/give things to my friends/family is a great feeling. For Christmas, I made mug cozies for some family members and they seemed to really like them. My brother-in-law, Kevin, even used his shortly after opening the gift, "To try it out." :)

I hope you are enjoying the new year as much as I am!
