Cupcakes and Thrifting

I am a very big thrifty person. I believe that If we can reuse things than lets try to. So I was at my favorite shop and they had these cups and plates. I think they are form 40's and 50's or maybe 60's. I love the colors.




Don't ya love steamy hot chocolate muffins. I only made 5 cuz well my husband and I are trying to change the way we eat. I guess you could say diet. But I hate that word.
I have been crocheting. I made a scarf that I will post about next time.
Waiting for the next part of the winter storm today. Everything is closed due to ice and snow.
Don't the cups and plates remind you of spring????

Moda Bake Shop

I love to sew. But I am not that good at it. My lines are crooked. I really love sewn pillows and quilts and things. I have made basic curtains and a few tote bags. Nothing fancy. So I started to to collect patterns. Now Moda is having a Progressive Dinner. What Fun. They are giving stuff away plus you can meet other bloggers. This is my granny square afghan I made took forever . I love the crazy left over colors.

We are expecting more snow today. Yeah. We have had around 70 inches this winter. YUCK.
Are temps are around 0 at night. Verry cold.

The pattern came from Attic 24's site I love how big it is. I overstuffed it too. Pretty bright colors..My girls are soooo cute. Sweetie looks a little temper mental in this picture. I tryed to get them to wear there rabies tags but they kept chewing on them.
