Latest Pattern News
I have finished the latest pattern!
 The Latest Pattern is:
Center Star Doily
This doily starts with a star motif, then has several rows of net stitch then it is surrounded by shells in a new color. It is fun and easy to make and would be a little bit of a challenge for a new beginner.
This pattern is for paid members but if you are not a paid member you can get this pattern for $1.99 or you can sign up to become a paid member and have access to all of the patterns on the site.

The next pattern is a scrunchie.
I am not longer allowed to crochet at work so the patterns, from now on, will be very short, quick and fun.

Helpful Hints
Stiffening Snowflakes
You can use sharp round toothpicks and styrofoam blocks to shape snowflakes when you are stiffening them. The toothpicks don't rust and are resuable for a few times. I use the blocks that come in packageing. I have also used foam board insullation which worked really well.

Coming Soon
Win 1,000,000 points!
Notice there is a number under the point tracker now. That number indicates how many people have hit a page with a tracker on it since July 19, 2009. From now on, when you get to a page with a tracker, and you have not already been given points for visiting that page, you will be given 100 points instead of 10. If you are the 1,000,000th person to hit a page with a tracker, you will actually get 1,000,000 points instead. When 1,000,000 has been reached, the counter will reset itself to 0 and the count will start over again. That way, everyone will have a chance to win the 1,000,000 points.
It send the winner and I an email when it rewards the one million points. Right now, at the rate the number is growning, it could take up to 2 years for the first 1,000,000 to be reached. So I am working on adding the tracker to more pages. I am only adding the tracker to pages that have large ads on them.
Don't forget, if you are a paid member, you can use the points to purchase items from the special store inside the paid members area. I will be adding some handmade jewelry to it soon. I have other stuff I will be adding also.
