Happy Valentine's Day!!!!

I hope everyone has a good one! When I woke up this morning, my honey left me a huge Tweety Bird Balloon, a wonderful card and a little stuffed animal with candy! It was so super sweet!!! I made him one of the "Love Bugs" that was offered in Annie's Attic free pattern of the day a couple of weeks ago, a card and got him a mug that says "World Poker Tour" with poker chip candies...

Well I finished my Cream Cotton Shrug for the crochet olympics on Sunday!!!! It turned out smaller than I imagined but that's ok as it's not for me! My digital camera's batteries ran out and I need to buy more so I can take pics.

This weekend I also finished my "Felted Bag set" which included a tote, cell phone cozy and accessory cozy. I am going to make several more of my cell cozies and send them to my DB and SIL... Everyone in their family has a cell phone so I think they'll enjoy them...

I've been working on the "Heathers Jacket" from the Feb 2006 issue of Crochet World and doggone it if I didn't run out of one of the pink colors I was using. Worst part is I only need enough for 2 more rows and here I have to go buy a whole new skein for that!!! Even though my gauge is right on, I know this is turning out too big. Oh well, I've put way too much work into this to frog it now!

Keep those entries coming in my Kitchen Contest! I have been so pleased with the entries thus far but need lots more in order for it to be successful!!! Please e-mail me your entries so you have a chance at one of the 2 gift baskets I'm giving away!!!
