Crochet Quickies...

This is what I took to play with on my camping/hunting trip. Colorful yarns and crochet hooks.

While the boys were out roaming the mountains looking for a elk...

I made a bunch of these cute little flowers....I have many more to make and when I'm finished...

I'll show you what I'm going to do with them....I kept thier little tails on because I need them for my project!

I also made several sunflower scrubby's......perfect for my fall kitchen.

And more scrubbies in all kinds of colors....these are the first 4 that I made.

Aren't they cute? They're called scrubbie dots!

They were really fast, fun and easy to make and perfect for little quickie projects to take while on a trip.

Kassidy thought they would be cute for coasters too.

If you want to make your own...click on each scrubbie name to get the pattern)

We enjoyed the campfire...the outdoors and each others company on our last camping trip of the season...

Tutorial...waxed paper pockets!

We are getting ready to go camping/hunting for the holiday weekend.

With thier bows and arrows in thier quivers...the boys will be searching for a huge bull elk.

Mr. Honeys favorite to take up on the mountain is a salted nut roll.

A few weeks back, I was visiting Nan over to Pots and Pins and spied THIS RECIPE for Salted Nut Bars.

I thought he would like homemade ones better!

I knew they would be perfect for the hunt....so I made up a batch and they were a huge hit!

So yesterday I made up another batch to take on our trip....this is how I like to package for individual treats.

I cut waxed paper into 6" wide strips across the width of the roll...which is 12".

Fold a strip in half ....it measures 6" x 6".

Stitch around 3 sides with a colorful zig-zag stitch....leave the 4th side open.

Place the treat inside....

And stitch closed...backstitch to secure.

Sorry for the fuzzy photo!

I switched up colors to make it more interesting...

The packaging keeps them fresh and also makes them convenient for packed lunches....I also like to make these waxed paper pockets for cookies and brownies.

Thanks Nan for the recipe...these Salted Nut Bars are perfect for an after school snack!

I heart Dresdens...

I thought today I would show you some of my dresden blocks in various stages of finish...or un-finish...

I heart dresdens:)
