Getting into Hearts and Flowers for Valentine Blogging hasn't been as easy for me this year as last!
I've been trying to figure out why!
So far I've come up with ...... Nada, Nothin', Not A Thing as the Reason for not getting into the Season!
It's not that I don't have LOVE in my life or a LOVE of My Life! I DO!
Which I said to HiHoney when we got married Forty-Five years ago....
except it was Translated to...Si, que hago.
Our Love Story and Mexican Weddin'
And....I DO have the most LOVEABLE GrandKids.
Four of them. They are Sweethearts, and HiHoney and I LOVE them Dearly!
We have been In LOVE with their Daddy...Our Son...for nearly Forty years.
I always think of LOVE when I think of my Mom.
She has a February Birthday and it's a perfect month for her because she is the HEART of our Family.
Last year about this time I started The Crocheted Pineapple PinCushion Project.
As with most of my projects, it grew from wanting to make One or Two to making one in every color of Crochet Thread out there.
Which lead to a Ribbon Collection, a Crochet Hook Collection, another Basket Collection, and a Lace Collection...which thankfully, I already had.
Oh, I almost forgot...a Vintage Crocheted Heart PinCushion Collection!
I'm really getting in the Hearts and Flowers mood!
I'm ready to Finish the stack of crocheted HEARTS.
I'm ready to Start my Bloggy LOVE FEST!
I'm ready to Link this post to...
Beverly's Pink Saturday
As Aways...Thanks Beverly for making Saturday Pink!
I'm ready for another HEART Shaped Box of Chocolates!
I LOVE your post....

Love your crocheted hearts. The quilt in the background isn't too bad either. Sunbonnet Sue's are so cute and appropriate for a gal named "Sue".
ReplyDeleteI "LOVE" your hearts!! Your February dollie is so cute. Happy Pink Saturday! Hugs and Kisses Grace
ReplyDeleteGood morning Sue, we are supposed to be in Florida celebrating our dear friends 50th but nope, Bill came down with the flu. Sigh. The bright side is I can visit my pinkies today. I'm lovin' it!
ReplyDeleteYou definitely made me smile with your heart post. See, posting just brings latent feelings in us. By the time you finished sharing your stunning heart pillows etc. you were in the mood. Your mom's photo is special, I miss my mom and dad soooo much. Finally, I am jonesing for a heart box of chocolates too. I better inform my sick hubs. Smile!
Happy pink Sat.

Your hearts are beautiful, Sue...they gave me a tug at mine; remembering my Texas grandmother and her hearts and pineapples and other things crocheted.
ReplyDeleteYour crochet hearts are beautiful Sue-Happy Weekend:@)
ReplyDeleteHELLO AND HAPPY PINK SATURDAY~I SO LOVE YOUR CROCHET HEARTS MY DEAR GRANDMA USE TO MAKE THEM TOO :)
ReplyDeleteI love your crocheted hearts. I try to buy them when I see them as they sell really well...I guess lots of folks love them. Glad you are feeling the Valentine Day spirit. I will find mine when it is above freezing (ha). Have a great week and stay WARM!
ReplyDeleteDenis
I feelin' the love! and I love all your crocheted hearts! It's almost time for some chocolates in a heart shaped box. :)
ReplyDeleteOh!!! I just love you hearts! So pretty and just love how very different each one looks!
ReplyDeleteLOVE these pineapple heart pincushions, Sue! I've been straying a little from my crochet work for the moment, as I try my hand at scrapbooking, but I am hoping to crochet a pretty pillow for my bed, sometime soon. I bought the pattern ages ago, and just haven't gotten around to it yet.. Funny, as I was just watching the movie "Never Been Kissed" with Drew Barrymore,.. (Have you seen that one?).. Where the main character's bed, the poor dear, was practically buried in handmade pillows?! LOL!.. Well, anyways, hoping you'll find that Valentine holiday spirit, as the big day gets closer.. Have a great weekend! ~tina
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday!
