Tessa closed the door after the last of the children left the Craft Store. She loved the little tykes, but they were tiring. Not having children of her own, she loved holding the craft classes that were popular with the little ones. Today they made Christmas trees out of their hand prints in plaster.

The kind of…

Although I have an intuitive knack for picking colors, a color wheel is helpful to have a round when you are not just sure. Perhaps you have challenges with color combos. Nothing to be ashamed of. When I worked as a…
I was asked a few questions recently about the Horsies I have been crocheting. Although I think the person was just wanting to talk, I decided to go ahead and answer some here. How do you decide on colors? Well honestly, most of the time I don’t. The yarn I currently most often makes the decision for me. I personally…
