chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	I have to smile the biggest smile at that sweet little angels happy face, she is actually posing and so adorable, Grandma too! Thanks so much for the beautiful pictures Angelika...I hope the colors were close to what you wanted and am so grateful that custom officials didn't mess them up when searching through the box... I looked again and noticed the words at the top of your pictures and they made me tear up. I wonder who gets more pleasure with these creations of mine, me, or the recipients? I adore being her Aunty Chatty, thank you... Edited by chatty lady (06/02/08 10:57 PM) _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	I got an email from Edelweiss early this morning at 3:12 a.m. and she stated that Anaiya, her grandbaby, took her afghan to bed with her tonight and the last words she said as she snuggled with it and fell asleep were, "my afghan." Now it doesn't get much better than that ladies...I am on cloud nine.

Sandpiper Member Registered: 06/19/05 Posts: 1158 Loc: Kissimmee, Florida	Chatty you are filling the world with love. Your afghans are simply beautiful. EW and granddaughter are happily enjoying your creations. You know, my twin sister crochets ripple afghans for family members and close friends. She fills them with happy thoughts while corcheting. She has had so many tell her that they know it's filled with her love because they feel it. So I know how you are filling the world with love, girl! _________________________ Sandpiper "Kaleidoscope Memories: Childhood Stories That Celebrate Family Life" - 2008 http://kaleidoscopememoriesbook.blogspot.com www.tidedancer.com

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	I so enjoy sreading the love sewn into easy stitch. I can't even remember how many are out there in the world now. I have to make a list. If you have an afghan made by me, add your name to this list: JJ Chickadee Dotsie (2) Kelly Bregal Dancer (4 so far) Mountain Ash Edelweiss Baby Anaiya Diamond Lola (2) _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Was going yarn shopping today until I stuck my head out the back door where the thermometer read: 104* and that was at 10:30 a.m..... So back inside I went, will go late tonight when and 'IF' it cools down some. I hate this heat! _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

Sandpiper Member Registered: 06/19/05 Posts: 1158 Loc: Kissimmee, Florida	Chatty do you have a portfolio of all the afghans and items you've made? My sister and I keep pictures of all our craft and handwork items and put them into a portfolio or photo book. It's a nice feeling to be able to look back at them for our memories of those we created them for. Your afghans are so beautiful. You can tell from the pictures that you create them with love. _________________________ Sandpiper "Kaleidoscope Memories: Childhood Stories That Celebrate Family Life" - 2008 http://kaleidoscopememoriesbook.blogspot.com www.tidedancer.com

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Nope, Sandpiper, I never saved any pictures of them. the only pictures have been posted on this forum. I am such a dope but never thought it would turn into the demand it has. I was just making them for fun, now they even have me making Ponchos. I wll save pictures of all the ones I have here however, JJ is also talking about making me a slide show website or something but we have to find the time needed to talk about it. Thanks, I'm so glad you like them. I have a half dozen of really beautiful, soft, babygans packaged up for sale eventually too. Plus a red, white and green, Christmas color lapghan if anyone needs one for a gift. _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

Songbird08 Registered: 06/03/08 Posts: 134 Loc: Massachusetts, USA	Oh Chatty dear! You are a special! I admire you, friend! I love to crochet but haven't enjoyed it for a few years now! I used to crochet baby blankets and sweaters, doilies and any gift I could think about. At times, I'd come up with my own designs too! So I know the work involved and all the love! I never made one for me, thou! Maybe someday I'll stop and crochet again! It was so relaxing and enjoyable! _________________________ In His Service, Songbird "Call me and I"ll answer"-Jer. 33:3 http://expressionpublishingministries.com http://inkspirationsbyrhodi.blogspot.com

Anno Member Registered: 09/15/05 Posts: 4434 Loc: Minneapolis Minnesota	Add Dennis' name to that list, too. Chatty's lapghan for him arrived today. (Picture, soon) Dennis grinned big and was trying, once again, who Chatty is and why she was sending him this present. Then I read the note she sent along. Quote: I make them filled with love. I love Anno, she is my sister boomer, and she loves you so much, I love you, too. Dennis had tears in his eyes. Thank you Chatty for having so much love in you and for your willingness to share all that love with so many of us. We love you, too. _________________________ Follow our story of living, loving and laughing with a debilitating disease: http://www.multiplesystematrophyandshy-drager.blogspot.com

chickadee Member Registered: 09/26/04 Posts: 3910 Loc: Alabama	Chatty, I was thinking today as I was making a candy corn wreath...wouldn't it be nice to make an afghan with those 3 colours. Very Fall like. It would even make a great Halloween costume for a little kid.

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	Either chick needs to give her wreaths to DD, or DD needs to give her afghan to chick! Or maybe chick needs to order a matching afghan from chatty... chick, the wreaths are precious. Do you put them outside? I once caught a squirrel on our door nibbling the apple on our wreath. I'm sure they'd go for the candy. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Those wreaths look so neat and I bet they take a lot of time to create and patience too. Do you sell them or use them just at your house? YOu have to admit, trhey do go good with that color aqfghan. Funny story it started out to be a scarf for dancer but didn't quite make it. Not a round afghan now but a rectangular one. Looks great! Perfect color scheme for Dolphins new home decor too. _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/
