So many ornaments, so little time!

My sister Mary and I went shopping in Collierville yesterday. Our target was Charming Charlie's, a really must go to shop for everything that a woman wants in accessories. You name it, they have it....bling city is what I call it and at really affordable prices. (Commerical over) We had driven in kinda behind and to the side of the store and we were focused on that only.

An hour later when we came out, right before me was this display. Angels sang and clouds parted for the sun to shine down on these ornaments.  How could I have missed them? My second thought was how cool would this be to cover them with my patterns? Silly I know, but wow. I came up with all kinds of visions of us coming in the middle of the night to paint my patterns on them. I also wondered where do they store something this huge when not in use? Inquiring minds want to know.  I want to be there next year when they bring them in. Just so cool. Hope you all are having a wonderful Christmas season.

Book 3 Ornaments

Here are 2 of the ornaments from Book 3 coming out soon.

I had truly hoped to get these out before Christmas, but it doesn't look like that will happen. This book has been a long time coming, but if anyone knows me it must be right before I send it forth into the world. Ha.

I can say this, most of the ornaments in this book require more crochet knowledge, not that the stitches are difficult, but a little more counting than I am use to to, just not as simple as the first 2 books.

I really should dedicate this book to Sandra, you know who you are, who has written me every year asking when my next book will be ready.
