I'm back from my stay at my daughter's house, taking care of their dog while they went camping. I actually came home Saturday night, but on Sunday Rick and I had a 45th anniversary party to attend. I have been busy most of today, but decided to take a break and do a blog post.
Behind my daughter's house, right now, is a gorgeous field of clover. And you know what that means, don't you? Butterflies! I was in heaven! lol
No butterflies in this first pic, just the pretty flowers!
Butterflies!
This Killdeer stopped by on Friday as I was getting their mail. :)
The bluebirds were quite busy getting food for their babies.
Even Ollie enjoyed the clover field!!
Laura's Columbine
My "helper" while I was there. ;)
Couple more pretty wildflower shots.
And last, but not least, the crochet I managed to get done while I was there. First up some dish/wash cloths. The pattern info can be found directly on the pictures. All crocheted items are done with cotton yarn.
Some coffee sleeves
And a few of the stretchy headbands. I put little flowers on these ones this time.
I also made some ice pop holders for the kids. This is a pic I posted on Facebook via Instagram. I'm anxious to see if the kids like them. I put the props back in Laura's fridge when I was done with the photo shoot. ;) There is no pattern for these. I just did my own thing. :)
Well, I best go work on supper. Thanks so much for stopping by! Enjoy your week! :D
Wow, you got lots of crochet done while puppy sitting! I love fields of clover, too. We have red clover here and huge fields of it. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
