Every week I am astounded at all the wonderful crafts out there. But we are not limited to just crafts. You are welcome to post your link to anything you like.

This weeks top three most looked at posts:

1. Summerhouse Cottage

As you can see my Mandelitiz problem has not ended. Here now to show of Mandela #10, designed by none other than our own Lucy at Attic24. Who can avoid trying something out that Lucy has made? Not me, that's for sure.


As you can see, I made 4, all in different colors.




This last one I decided to make in red, white and blue and is this one
that is on it's way to England and Attic24 .
For Yarndale!


Hope you enjoyed my newest Mandela's.

Link-Yourself Monday #26 & Mandela #9

Hello my lovely Friends!

Once again Monday has arrived and with it our next Link-Yourself Monday. Are you all ready to join the fun and show of your latest creations. As always I am looking forward to seeing what you all have been up to in the past week. So let's get this Party started.


Here are this weeks most viewed Link-ups:

1. Crochet Kari

It's a very pretty Mandela and is on my list to make.



This is just cowlious, don't you think?



Such pretty colors and the pompoms are a wonderful touch.



This last week has been a busy one for me. Had several Birthday Parties to attend, than work of course and the daily things don't want to wait either. But I did manage to squeeze in a few crafty minutes here and there. I crocheted one more Mandela. The pattern once again came from Zooty Owl . This Mandela is absolutely huge. As you can see I am still a little behind on sewing in all those strings, but I will get there.








I am going to call this one my pink Rose Garden.
I am working on writing out the Pattern for Mandela #8
and should be able to post it in the next few days.

Mandela #9

Thanks for stopping by today. As you can see I am still on my Mandela kick. I just can't stop. And the more I want to stop, the more new patterns I see appearing and with that it is over for me. I am just plain hooked. Please come and help me get over this madness.

Here now is one I have designed myself. I hope you like it.

But first I thought I would share a little description of what the different colors stand for in a Mandela. Very interesting, don't you think?



The one thing that is crazy about a Mandela is allllll those strings.
You do have to do a lot of sewing in.






If you should be interested in the pattern please let me know and I will post it.
I should have written it down as I went along,
but sadly I didn't.
So now I am going back and doing just that, so I have it
as a future reference.

Wishing you all a lovely day!
Till next time.....

It was a real joy to make

Link-Yourself Monday #23 & Mandela #5

Happy Monday everybody! Hope your weekend was filled with the things you enjoy. Personally I had another super busy one. Hoping that after Easter it slows down a bit, so I can catch up with myself.

It being Monday, another Link-Yourself day has come around and I hope as many as possible of you will come and join us and show of your lovely creations. You are also welcome to link-up if you don't craft and have something else to show us.

Sorry, when it comes to the link-up button to put on your blogs, I have not been able to get one that worked right. Hopefully by next week that will be remedied. 

Without further ado, here are out top three most viewed Linkers: 







Please kind and show your Love by checking out their pretty blogs and leave a comment so they will know you have been there.

Now, yes this crazy lady has another Mandela to share with you. Mandela #5

Mandela Crazy

Good Morning my lovely Friends!

You will all say "She has gone crazy". So many Mandela's. And I would have to say "Yep, very true". I just can't seem to get enough of them. It's like an addiction, you just can't stop. So many different patterns, so many different color combinations, so much fun. Once I got started with them, I don't seem to be able to put them down.

Remember the other day I showed you my Mandela #4. Well at the time I didn't just make one. Nope, I made three, in three color combinations of the same three basic colors, white, pink and red. When I showed it off, I had only sewn in the string of one and so only showed you that one. So now, without further ado, I shall show you the other two and than all three together.








After all that, do you think there is hope for me
to quit this addiction?
Do I need to go to the Mandela addiction clinic
for rehab?
Help!!!

On that note I will leave you all today.
Make your day Special!
