My Crochet Stars and Info About a Giveaway

First, I want to let you know about a giveaway hosted by Lynn of  Happiness is Cross Stitching http://happinessiscrossstitching.blogspot.com/2011/08/my-third-anniversary-giveaway-ooooo-la.html .  She has been blogging for three years and is celebrating with this giveaway:

Isn't that a sweet collection?  Best of luck to you if you enter, but I hope I'm the lucky one:)

On the subject of giveaways, I want to thank Donna of So Sew Crafty http://sosewcrafty.blogspot.com/ because I won her first ever giveaway recently.  It's a gift certificate so I will enjoy shopping and then making something pretty.  Thanks so much, Donna, and hugs to ChaCha.

I've been working on the crochet stars and such for my Wreath Quilt.  It takes me a few hours to make one of the big stars, although I 'm getting faster now that the pattern is familiar.  I love crocheting, but I wish I could do it walking around.  I've been listening to books on tape and sitting on the sofa all week.  When I'm sewing I do a good deal of standing, walking to the machine and shaking out of fabric, so it feels more active. 

A few wonky points, but that should straighten out when I block them.

God Bless.
