I Like the Apple Watch!

Hello!  I am changing what I'm doing on this blog again.  The three posts a week was a good idea but it didn't work for me right now so I'm back to just posting when I can.  So today was a big day for Apple announcements and I think that the Apple Watch is a great!   Bigger screens for phones - a great improvement!  Apple Pay - probably an interesting idea but will I use it?  Not sure.  

So here is my picture of the day:


This is a notecard I recently made.  The bicycle was cut on the Silhouette Portrait.  The paper tape found on clearance at Target:)  Have a fun day!

Book Monday...

Well as they say "the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry"... So I am hoping that perhaps I will get at least one week done with my new plan:)  Since this is Book Monday I have changed the order and added a few things to the sidebar "Favorite Books".  Children's books have always been a favorite of mine.  One that motivated me to knit a pair of mittens is Sunny's Mittens by Robin Hansen.   If you or your children have any interest in knitting this is a great book.  Adding the thumb was the hardest for me but a good knitting friend can come to your rescue!  Another interesting knitting books written for kids but with lots of fun projects is  Kids Knitting by Melanie Falick.  I'm still hoping to try those spiral socks:)

Here is the picture of the day which really has nothing to do with knitting but love the colors:





Have a wonderful week and read a book and start a new craft!
