Still crocheting

Since I ran out of yard for my first afghan, I have started a new one. Hobby Lobby is slowly getting more of the colors I need back on the shelves! I think I am only missing two now. In the meantime, I started this ripples afghan. I made quite a bit of progress on our trip to Fredericksburg this Spring Break. We spent 7 hours climbing around on Enchanted Rock. It was a wonderful day for being outdoors. Now I am sore all over from over use of otherwise unused muscles!
Y'all come back,

An egg theme!

 It is Pysanky time again. This is my second egg this spring. I should have taken it out to the patio for better lighting, but it was also windy. Wind and blown egg shells are not a safe combination. I use designs from books that I purchased at the Ukrainian Gift Shop online. 
 I just received this old egg from a friend. Any guesses as to what it is? 
 My total Pysanky collection. The egg on the far right with the acorns and oak leaves is the first one I made this spring.  I took some photos of the eggs as I made them with my cell phone. Maybe I'll share them soon. If you are interested, I have several more posts about Pysanky. Just look for Pysanky under labels on the left side bar.
I had to include one of my egg layers chasing Bella!  Blossom is top of the pecking order in the henhouse.  I guess she thinks she is over cats too.

I HEART...
