Christ is life, love (family, friends) is essential, reading is sustenance and crochet (or quilting) is everything else! "Love the Lord your God. Love him with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength." Mark 12:30 Message "Take your everyday life-your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking around life - and place it before God as an offering." Romans 12:1 Message

New vest and Cell Phone Purse or "Extra Pocket"
I love to crochet and I love vests! I don't make very many things for myself but I do enjoy making vests and small purses. This wk I made both. The vest from "I love this yarn" Pomegranate stripe (3 skeins) from Hobby Lobby and the purse in an "expensive" yarn - at least for me - Berocco origami - 1 skein (50 gms) for $8 from Hill Country Weavers in Austin.
Vest Pattern is the x and o stitch or Kisses and Hugs interspersed with dc. Sample on earlier post, row of double (or single) crochet followed by cross or X stitch (kisses), row of dc (or sc) and row of dc, ch1 (hugs)
Purse is sc magic square slightly elongate (25 sts), with row of dc X stitches 6 or 7 rows below top.
