Beware Of Landmines ~Poo Sign For My Backyard

This is my big fur baby, Cricket. She is the best dog, ever. I mean that! Every morning I get cuddles, whether I want to cuddle or not. She puts a smile on many faces. 
I find tho, with larger dogs, the poo situation is not always under control. So I made a sign to warn friends of her landmines. 




I received a large pile of old slate a few years ago when the church in my town had their roof redone. The Pastor was very kind to offer me the 300+ pieces of slate to do with as I choose. For a while I had no idea what I could do with them. Until just lately... I have been coming up with different crafty ideas.

Free Crochet Pattern ~A Silly Hat For My Silly Dog

She is so adorable sleeping in her new hat! She didn't like it on her head until I added the braided ties.
I would say this hat is easy to make.


It involves some front post double crochet, as well as single crochet, double crochet and half double crochet stitches, skipping stitches, and decreasing.

Crochet Flower Rug by Niftynnifer

My most recently finished Rug.

I picked up some of that amazing disconinued ''Nylotex'' from a local Second had shop(and a 9MM hook), and came up with this. You could always use rags too! Do you know how to start your rag rug? It is accually a pretty easy project and like this piece, can be one of a kind!
