Thanks Mrs. Ingram wherever you may be
This is my first blog as you will soon find out. So I will start by letting you know a little about me. I have been crocheting since the age of 14yr. thanks to a home ech teacher. The class was to start off making a scarf but not me I enjoyed the craft so much I made a twin size afghan. The teacher was Mrs. Ingram at Bayside High in Bellville Ontario, Canada. She taught me alot from cake decorating, sewing, crafts and each thing she taught me has helped through my life. I'm married with 3 grown children and I work 12 hour shifts. I crochet every chance I get even at work while on breaks. For the past 6 yrs. I have been making baby afgans for family, friends, & people I work with. I just finished 175 lucky penny holders for a lady I work with that is getting married in July. She is giving them out as wedding favors. I'm looking forward to this summer camping with friends we sit around the campfire crocheting and getting caught up on what our next project is going to be then at night we walk the park with our camera's taking night pictures. Those of you that like to camp here is something for you to try. Take a 4-5 inch peice of copper and wrap a peice of nylon garden hose around the copper. Throw it into the fire and watch the beautiful colors. The more you throw in the more colors. But please be sure NOT to cook over the fire as the copper will penitrate the food. When the coals have cooled down use a poker and dig out the copper and use it again & again. This is entertaining for Children young and old.
