October 15: Eggplant - COMPLETED

Pattern # 288:  Eggplant

Happy Friday!  Today's pattern is a pretty purple eggplant.  I still do not know what to do with them cooking wise, but they sure would look cute in our cornucopia!

---------------------

Updated November 15, 2012: This is the last of the cornucopia series for me to post about. This eggplant turned out super cute.

October 14: Apple - COMPLETED

Pattern # 287:  Apple

Today we have a fruit for our cornucopia -- the apple!  You are the apple of my eye. ;)  haha I crack myself up sometimes. Happy Thursday.  Thursdays are now my Fridays -- and I LOVE it!

----------------

Updated November 14, 2012: This little apple is so cute. I actually finished the whole cornucopia series over a few nights of Matt working 24s. Oh the joys of quick little projects!

October 13: Squash - COMPLETED

Pattern # 286:  Squash

Wow.  I just realized I have 49 followers on blogger.  That's crazy.  What started as my own little personal challenge has grown!  So cool!  So readers, what keeps you coming back for more?  Is the sweet patterns?  My random little comments that go along with each one?  Let me know :)

And today we will continue working on our cornucopia with the next veggie - squash! We sure have lots of this around our house.  Do you know how easy it is to grow squash & zucchini?  Very easy!

------------------------

Updated November 14, 2012: Another veggie off the hook. This little cornucopia set was a lot of fun to crochet!

October 12: Corn -- COMPLETED

Pattern # 285:  Corn

What better to go with your cornucopia than an ear of corn?  Two ears of corn?  Or maybe -- Indian corn!  I wonder how this would look with a multicolored yarn.  Thoughts?

-----------------

Updated November 14, 2012: This little corn is so cute. The whole cornucopia series is great -- and it sits on my entryway. So fun!

October 11: Pumpkin - COMPLETED

Pattern # 284:  Pumpkin

This is the second piece in our cornucopia.  How cute is this tiny little pumpkin?  Wanna know a secret -- I already crocheted this!  Like last year.  But I'm gonna stick with my challenge, and make another one for this complete set.  :)

-----------------

Updated Noember 15, 2012: I'm calling this done. I really do not like this pattern anyways. In fact, I threw the pumpkin away after this picture of the cornucopia series. I much prefer the other pumpkin pattern!

October 10: Cornucopia -- COMPLETED

Pattern # 283:  Cornucopia

I put these patterns in my delicious account many many months ago.  As in, last fall.  I would love to have my own crocheted fall decorations -- wouldn't that be cute?  I think so!  Today's pattern is just the cornucopia part of the picture, not all of the veggies & such.... those are each going to have their own post later this week!

I think cornucopias are more Thanksgivingish.  So I am going to make this week all about gratitude.  Each day I will discuss something that I am greatful for.  Today I am very greatful for my husband.  He is wonderful and meets (almost) all of my needs!  He encourages me in my craftiness, and is really pushing me to start my own business!

What is one person that you are greatful for?  And, is it spelled greatful or grateful?  I can't decide!!

Updated November 15, 2012: This cornucopia was pretty easy to crochet. Most of the stitching was done in the back loops, to give it that basket look. I love unique patterns like that! The rest of the cornucopia series can be found here.
