The Season Of Fall

Fall is well on its way. Here are some things that come with the season.

The changing of colors, in the leaves of trees and bushes!



Lots of leaves on the ground!


Don't you love this photo? I wish I took it, but my camara is not that cool! :)
Rain.... Some times is a not so fun when it doesn't stop,

But other times I feel like this about the rain.... especially when you sing in it!! :)

The fall makes you want to wear these. Which I have just made, but that is a different post that is on my other blog!

One thing I could live without during the cold months is a cold, which I have at the moment. :(

Which makes me drink allot of this!!   But drinking tea is one of my favorite thing to do when it is cold out side, especially when you are reading a book!! Fall is beautiful and comes with a different way of living, compared to the summer months. And in a way I am excited for the change in weather but in other ways I will miss the sunshine and warm weather activities. So here is good bye to one season and Hello to the new!! Thanks for Reading ~RebeccA.

JoAnn Update

As of last Saturday, I have become a Joann's class teacher!! I have been an "instructor" for about a month but none of the classes that I was to teach had any one in them, until Saturday. Where I had 2 classes to teach
A knitting class, called knitting 101. Where I had 7 people I was teaching. That was a little challenging, because of the amount of people but it went well.

I taught them the basics like how to, cast on, knit stitch, purl stitch, and biding off. Some people got it right off the bat, and others it took them a little more time. But over all I think that every one was at least knitting by the end of the 2 1/2 hour class!!

The next class I taught that day was Crochet 101. And for those who know me, know that I don't really crochet or at least that is not what I really know how to do. Well the reason I taught this one was the gal that normally teaches it, wanted the day off for her birthday. So I learned the basics of crochet, in order to teach this class.

I had 4 people in this class, which was the perfect amount for something that I don't have allot of experience in. I taught them how to chain, a single crochet stiich and a double crochet stich. I think that I was able to teach the ladies in the class all that I know about the subject and it seemed they all were able to get the concepts down!
I will also be teaching some sewing classes of all different kinds of projects and patterns. But no one has signed up for those ones yet. But I am thinking that since fall weather has started to come, people are going to want to do some indoor crafts. So I am sure I will be teaching them soon.
Until next time ~RebeccA.

Esty Store

Well if you have seen on my other blog, A Couple of Crafty Gals. I have started an esty store!! I have been wanting to start on for quite some time, but  I just never did it.  Until now!! What I have in my store at the moment are some Binky holders I have knitted. I started these last fall, to sell at the Christmas Bazaars, but I never finished them in time. So after a while of the unfinished project sitting in my craft bin, I finally decided to put them in my store. Here are some of the projects in my store.



As you can see I have made the two Binky holders, the elephant and the flower in different colors. And this is hat I plan to do for a while, make them in a variety of colors!! Check out what I have in store on the right side of my blog!!
Well that is all that I have been up to besides working. But it seems summer is coming soon!! With my schedule getting busier, and more Church gatherings being planned :)
