Television | The TygerLily

It’s funny how sometimes I think of projects I’ve done, and know exactly what was on TV or what was happening in the house when it was getting worked on. Well, last night will be no different when it comes to having a memory while knitting.

After spending the afternoon downstairs, ironing and knitting, Bill calls down to me and says “Father of the Bride” is on. He wanted me to come upstairs and watch it with him. OK, no problem, I adore that old movie. He, on the other hand, had never seen it. So game on, or once the old gal had one up on him as I’ve seen it a gazillion times.

The Aftermath.......

My dear one has walked both our daughters down the aisle, and he gets a chance to do it one more time this coming summer – and this movie truly moved him. He could understand every line and emotion Spencer Tracy was going through – even the nightmare of him trying to walk his daughter down the aisle. With all the conversation we enjoyed as we both sat at the dining room table discussing this movie, I will never forget what item I was working on:

Brown Sheep Limeade Tote

This project has sat for over 2 months without a stitch more done, but what a great way to get it back on the working table.

What memories are you making for yourself? Sometimes those are the biggest blessings of all. Happy crafting!

It’s been a fairly productive weekend as far as getting a couple more things listed in the Etsy Shop. Here’s a couple photos of the two new sets that went up today….

Retro Brown/Pink Trio

Spring Floral Duet

I’ve put away the JournalJunction’s decoupage glue, the drying racks, and washed the paint brushes. It’s time to go do something else, especially now that the laundry is complete and dear hubby is down for his Sunday afternoon much needed nap time.

There is a fleece baby blanket project sitting on the coffee table, with about 1/2 of the crocheted lace trim complete. So I’m off to relax these computer tired eyes and crochet. I’m sure there’s either “Snapped“, “Law and Order“, “NCIS“, or maybe even an old movie on TCM. I only listen to TV, ya know. There’s always too many other things to be doing than actually WATCHING it. :)

My Vera Bradley knock-off note keeper with mini expandable file is still mulling around in my head as to design. I have the perfect fabric and ribbon to complete it, but I want it JUST right. That will take paper, pencil and a ruler – none of which will get touched today. But really, keep watching – the picture is in my head and one day it will appear in the Etsy shop.

Happy trails to you all, until we meet again. ENJOY!
