America’s Heroes – Thank You!

Posted on by Hope

Hi Everyone!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank your!

Farmers,
Truck drivers transporting products from state to state, town to town, suburb to suburb.
People creating videos that put a smile on your face,

Sewing, crocheting, knitting, weaving, knitting loom, needle point, embroidery. People are creating items to help others.
These items are not only useful but put smiles on people.

If you have a green thumb gather seeds, dirt, peat moss, starter plants, pots, water, and a lot of love. People love to watch things grow.

Have a great day! Hope

Worth

Posted on by Hope

Hi Everyone!

  • Is worth only about money?
  • art work,
  • gold bars, dollars, coins of value,
  • cars with everything included, top of the line, famous names nobody else can effort,
  • real estate, have a house everywhere you want to visit, New York, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, England, Paris, Brazil.
  • Or is worth about love,
  • friendship,
  • doing for others, don’t forget about animals, birds,
  • offer assistance to someone, that no one else will give them the time of day,
  • have a conversation with someone no one else will take the time to listen what they have to say.

Listening to others is the hardest thing for people to do. Listening to what others have to say, is important to them, since no one else will take the time.

To me this is where we have lost the art of a craft, product made by hand, that was done for eons and now is lost because no one wants to listen. Yes it takes time, patience, understanding of what they accomplished in their life.

  • keys – stores now have machines. Sorry I find a store that still makes them by hand,
  • clothes – where do you go to have your clothes made the way you want,
  • boats, canoes, – where do you find the hand work and design,
  • product cuttings – item received not made correctly, hopefully you have a store that can trim it to the correct length or width,
  • Crocheting, knitting, embroidery, cross stitch.

Have a great day! Hope

What I Like?

Posted on by Hope

png_kid-53108-094Hi Everyone! png_kid-53108-173

What I like;

  • Daisies. Most people may say roses, but to me they remind me of a wake
  • Fresh Air. Of course when you live in a city the air is not as fresh like forest air
  • Colorful items;
    • clothes
    • socks, don’t forget the crazy designs
    • furniture
    • sheets, pillow cases, blankets, 
    • front, dining, kitchen, bathrooms, etc, walls
  • Friends “You got to have friends” (song from Bette Midler) since blogging I have made new friends from all over the world.
  • Knitting I love using Multi-colored or Variegated
  • Creating cards – birthday, get well, holiday, etc. Why you ask when you can buy a card? Because it keeps my imagination going with designing for a specific person
  • Blogging working with multi-colored/variegated yarns
  • Learning new things like WordPress “Gutenberg” Yikes!!!! It kind of reminds me of the ancient printing press. 44880_guten_press_lg
  • Watching Ink Master, Marvel movies, Pirates of the Caribbean, Netflix shows, Gotham TV show, Flash. I guess you can say I like movies with action, unusual, scientific, mystery, fantasy, wonderment, and wow shows!
  • woman detectiveInvestigating or as my son would say noisy. I prefer to say curiosity.

Have a great day! betty boopHope

Hello Knitting!

Posted on by Hope
Knitting-Yarn-3Hi Everyone!
Have you ever created something made out of clay, canvas, paints, yarn, metal, wood, fabric or your choice of favorite material.
I like to knit. When I start off adding the yarn to the knitting needle, it looks like – don’t have a word for it. kittens yarn
Then the next row, looks like no word for this one either.
Have now added another ten (10) rows, it’s looks a little like a whole bunch of yarn that has been knitted in a few rows.
Another ten (10) rows added, hey looking good, still don’t know what it is.
Another ten (10) rows added, look at this, I think it’s going to be a hat.
WOW! Can’t believe it!
After adding quite a few more rows, here it is
my “HAT”!

WOW crazy hat 2018

Have a great day!knitting clip artHope

Hi Everyone!
Did you enroll for the flower arrangement class?unusual flower 4
Knitting-Yarn-3Hope: I just enrolled in a knitting class for intermediate. Hope I do okay. You know me I’m still all thumbs with the knitting needles.
Dot: So why are you taking the class?
Hope: I’m getting bored with the beginner patterns.
Dot: You know you just might surprise yourself. Keep me posted.

Abby: Hey Hope! Did you enlist in the swimming try outs?
swim suits vintageHope: No I didn’t. When did they post the information?
ABBY: Last week. Not too many showed up, due to the 6 inches of snow.
Hope: Since some of the snow melted I better get my butt over there. Can’t we enlist online?
Abby: That would be the easy way, especially with the snow. 
Hope: Guess what I just checked online and no more spots are available. You know what I’m going to come and be the cheerleader for our group.
Abby: The next time when I see something posted I will double check to make sure I read the fine print. It would have saved me a trip to enroll with this goofy weather. Better yet I will have you check online for me.

Have a great day! photo-chicago-exhibit-supply-company-photo-for-arcade-card-woman-sitting-profile-on-beach-with-elaborate-bathing-suit-tinted-1920s This is my style.
