July's Squares
Made these funky fun squares for July's CLGSX. I really like the green combo, and I also made 2 for the Dafghan, of course, and 2 more in reverse colors. I hope to get that big project done soon... and I already know what kind of 'ghan I want to make next with my exchange squares. Swaps are fun!

Prize Purse
Every summer after the spring round of CLHBX I do a drawing for a goodie stuffed handbag, and this is it for this year. I made it out of some interesting fun fur coupled with size 5 thread and a J hook.

Few things are sweeter than watching your lovely child chase bubbles in the yard....

Prize Doily
I really enjoyed this little thing. It turned out smaller than I thought it would, but it's really darling. I got the pattern from 99 Little Doilies, which is a great book full of neat, smaller doilies, which are perfect for CLDX. And besides, I like anything with a spider stitch in it... : )

July's Dishcloth
Here's my dishcloth for the CLDCX2. I used 'Diamonds and Bars' from 200 Crochet Blocks. It was fun to make. : )

Those silly little words...
No one means all he says, and yet very few say all they mean, for words are slippery and thought is viscous.
