Hi Cheryl! I’m back 🙃! Did you say that you are doing the UnderwaterTailsCAL? I was just wondering how it is going. I am doing that as well… And am behind. What else is new?! Thank you again for your sweet sunflower. ❤
@@GumboGirl13 Hello 👋 I’m doing the Under the Sea CAL from @repeatcrafterme. I am behind as usual lol. I haven’t crocheted much this week . I did make a cupcake and some earrings. Hope you get caught up on your CAL
Hi Cheryl! I'm also behind on this CAL, but decided to just do the US book to give me more time. Your sunflower looks fantastic! As a new crocheter, this one is going to take a bit for me, but I will get it done 😁🧡
Hello there 👋 Thank you, it wasn't too hard, just kind of tedious in that you make each pedal separately then sew each on the middle piece. The rest is pretty easy. Thanks for watching 🥰
Hello Cheryl ❤ I enjoyed your video! So glad you also read the quotes so far. Your sunflower is lovely, and I 'm glad I have a few of your projects in the journal already. I'm also not quite up to date with all the projects...😅
I bought that book back when it came out, but didn't get serious about learning crochet until this year. Knitting is easier for me but I really want to make all of the things! Lol! Sewing up the pieces might be easier than trying to do a tiny tube.
@@Curlymoosecrochets That was a game changer! I can't figure out how to fix lace but learned how to put in a lifeline. Haven't tested that yet, but will do a sweater soon. I might change my confidence during my first sweater HAHA!
@@AntisocialAuntie Oh that's awesome! I'll have to watch some videos on how to do the life line. Maybe that will help. Good luck with you sweater, I'm sure you will do great.
Her name is Stella. My daughter in law got her from a shelter in California when my son was stationed at FT Irwin Barstow. That is why she has the scarf. She’s a beautiful dog!
Stella is Aussie/husky mix. Archer (grey dog) is Aussie/German Shepherd mix. At least that is what we were told when we got them as pups from a shelter.
@@St4ange-Humān Yes! We love them. They are actually our grand doggies. My daughter in law found them at 2 different shelters bc she just had to have dogs. Then she had her 1st child and it was too much for her lol. Grandma to the rescue.
I love your craft room mine needs a redo but I have Ben very ill and haven’t been crocheting very much so when I am well again I will start to talkel it
Oh my goodness you're such a hoot. 😂😂 Taking about gas, baby birds, zoo trip.... Julie got me on her books too. Gllay your looking forward to the crochet book sneak peaks. by the way those birds draped on the playpen look so cute❤🤗
Hi Caroline! I’m really looking forward to your sneak peek videos! I got that bird throw blanket at Big Lots. I have a shower curtain with the same print. I bought them at least 4 yrs ago.
The animals in the book are darling! I have never seen that book before. Hope you will try to make one of the animals to see how working from a chart is. Your little baby birds are so much fun to see. It's sweet that the momma bird decided to make her nest in your wreath. How perfect! And the trip to the Animal Park must have been great. Seeing all the animals, and especially Arthur the hippo. Glad to hear about your day there. Don't worry about the Ninja Turtle. I'm sure your grandson will love it. Enjoy your day! 🌸
Hi 👋 I do want to try one of the patterns. Hopefully soon! There are so many things I want to make lol. The baby birds started flying today! I want to make another video of them but I don’t want to scare them away too soon. Thanks for your comments 😊 have a great day!
Your ninja turtle looked cute, whenever I try amigurumi projects they never turn out right. Sewing everything together is my main problem. Share your progress with the persian tiles afghan, I am sure it will be beautiful. 😊
Hi Cheryl, really enjoyed your video and chit chat. I was at the San Diego Zoo in the mid 70's and it was really nice. Your ninja looked like a lot of work and I think it turned out really good. What a good grandma, your grandson sounds so cute 😊 Good luck with the sugar, I know my arthritis feels much better when I don't eat it.
Hello there👋😊 That was the first time that I have been to the Wild Animal park. I could have done a better job with Ninja but I will do better if I ever make one again ha ha. I love my grand kids so much. I need to get healthier so that I can keep up with them. Thanks for sharing 💕
The book looks good to me. I don’t mind sewing pieces together. I also knit and Alan Dart’s toy patterns are like that with lots of pieces to sew together and they always come out really cute. I think your ninja is awesome. It makes me want to make one myself. Good luck with fasting. I hope it helps you. I started some fasting because I was working so much that I didn’t have time to eat and it made me realize that I actually feel better when I do that. It seems to help with inflammation in my joints. My name is Anna, BTW.
Hi Anna😊 I was going to link the Ninja pattern, but that seller isn’t selling on Etsy anymore. Maybe I can find the website for and then link it. Thanks for your input regarding creating toys in flat pieces. I don’t knit well at all, but I’m slowly working on it. I have been intermittent fasting, I even fasted for 38 hours twice so far. It does make me feel better. I started listening to Jason Fong MD and I also bought his book. Check back to this video bc I’m going to add the links in the description today. It’s so nice to meet you 😀
Hi Cheryl, so fun that you got those books and thank you for mentioning me! 🤗 That little slipper is adorable you made, such a cute book! I love the sweater you made, so very pretty ❤️
Hi friend.. what a cute little slipper. I struggle with them too. Cute lil pouch. Awww, cute little cardigan. I have the same problem with my mom.. she 98 See you next time
Hi Cheryl ... Kelly from "Crochetma4Life" gave you a shout out. Your doll turned out really cute. Maybe try putting a mouth and nose on her to camouflage the bumps. 😊
Hello Cheryl wow ...yoou cut your own hair? You are brave. Your doll came out so cute. I really love that nana doll from that book. I enjoyed getting a look through, I tend to forget what's in the book.
Your chocolate bunny and your little doll are both cute. I recently tried an amigurumi project and I realized that I need more practice sewing pieces together. 😊
Hi there! Thank you so much 🥰 I'm not that great at sewing pieces on either. I used a knitting needle poked through the dolls head and into her body to hold it in place as I sewed it on. Sometime a curved needle is helpful. Thanks for watching.
Hi there, I'm sorry about the sound quality. I'm new at making videos and I forgot to turn up the volume when I was recording. You will have to turn the volume way up, but then remember to turn it back down before you watch something else so you don't get blasted with loud volume.
Hi thanks so much! The yarn is Mandala Baby cake in the color way Echo Caves. I use two cakes. I started each hexagon with separate cakes so they matched.
You left out the fact that you and dad watched the grand babies the day before Valentine’s Day while we were at Disneyland with the boys! We were all too exhausted to care about valentines this year 😂
Cute hat! I love peter rabbit..you did a great job! I dont care for Vday either..I bought me new purse lol Hubby said i need to get you flowers n candy..I said I already got mine lol. Now my grandbabies reminded me do I did get them something but honestly its not my holiday at all...Im such a slow crocheter too..I shouldnt have bought all this yarn lol
Your mushroom hat is adorable! It looks complicated. You did a beautiful job on it. Peter Rabbit is one of my favorite characters. Love yours, even with the legs as they are. 💕
