Just Getting Started!

I have seen so many of my crochet/crafting friends starting blogs to list their own patterns, links, crafting info, and so much more.....so I thought I would jump on the bandwagon too! I don't know HTML, so I will have to learn as I go along. :o)

A little bit about me. My name is Juli. I'm married and live in NC. I have two sons, Mikey, who is 14 and Joshua, 6 months. I also have two step children: Steven, 18 and Sonya, 16. We just moved to a small town, Spindale, NC. That's where Elmore-Pisgah makes their famous Peaches and Creme cotton! :o) I plan to call them and ask for a tour of their plant -- gotta see where my favorite yarn is made!

I love to crochet, and I also do plastic canvas, miniature painting and embroidery/needlepoint. I don't do much in the way of embroidery anymore as it's so fussy and takes so long, but when I find a project I really love, I will buckle down and spend the time on it. My favorite hobby is crochet -- I work with yarn and thread, and have designed some of my own patterns. I haven't had many of them tested yet, but will get some of my wonderful crafty friends to do that for me before I put them up here.

I put up a picture of our house and one of Joshua. I will post some crochet and craft pictures soon!

Hugs, Juli

  1. Great start on your blog, Juli! I'm so glad to hear that you're starting one. I love to read fellow crocheters/crafter's blogs. So keep it up, girl! Let me know if you need any help. I'm still learning myself, but I can help with a little bit of stuff. Also a great website to pick up tidbits is Lissaexplains.com. It's a website geared towards teaching children to html. You don't have to read EVERYTHING at once, just what you want to know how to do at that moment. Let me know if I can help. And congrats on the blog! I'm going to note it on my blog. Now to get you a button...anyone volunteer to create one for Juli?
