    That was fun…seeing my girls together out and out. It breaks my heart to see those beautifully made blankets at the thrift store knowing that someone took a lot of time to make them. Hopefully they will find a new wonderful home. Thanks Glenda, mom and sis for letting us tag along with you. Stay safe and be blessed ❤

    Hello silly girls, I love you all. I'm really quite silly myself. Ok you need to get that afgahn.
    We can tell how much she loves this and all the attention. I took care of my mom and dad until they past. Towards the end it got more and more challenging as my physical condition got worse. They were terrified of going to the nursing home so I promised them if I had anything to say about it, They would never have to worry about that. My sister is 16.5 years older than I & her husband was the executive of the whole works. They live 1.5 hrs from here & would only come for about 1 hour to visit them or her after dad passed & she wanted them to be alone with ty them. I will never regret all of this special time with them. So I really appreciate you are both with your mom every week. God bless to all.❤❤❤

    Very pretty blankets. So sad they ended up in the thrift store, however. My grandmother (who taught me to knit and crochet) used to make exquisite doilies, bedspreads and tablecloths.

    I made twenty baby blankets last year and put them in Goodwill so a new mom who doesn’t crochet could afford a beautiful crocheted blanket for their baby . I hope they went to good homes and were loved .

      Karen Dionne, instead of donating to the thrift store, consider donating to a battered women and children's shelter. My church did that, and every single blanket went to a mom or child in need. Look online or ask your church charity minister for names of organizations you can donate to.

    Oh yeah since I started to learn to crochet I had no idea how much we put into each item we make also with the amount we spend to buy the yarn, needles, hooks, etc. Its a shame that they end up at thrifts stores and sell them for pennies. I recently went with a friend to a estate sale. I got to talking to the young man that was selling all the items. He said that his grandma had passed away and she left him every thing, but he was going to sell everything inside the house and buy everything new, but he was keeping the house. He was selling everything cheap. Me and another lady went straight to this room where we saw alot of yarns, needles, hooks, threads, material etc. Ho my God she had everything you needed to do every kind of craft you wanted to do. Well me and that lady took 3 of the large (30 GALLONS) bags. And he just gave it to us for $15.00 for all 3 bags so I paid $15.00 and that lady paid $15.00 for her 3 bags to. We made a steal. I felt so bad cause here we are we make all these items and once we all get old or pass away our kids or grandchildren dont care to save our most precious thing and they sell it or just donate it to the Goodwill or other thrift stores, cause they want all new things. But as I was walking out I turned around and looked at the house and said Dear God thank this beautiful lady for all these beautiful yarn and other items she has provided for me and another lady. Tell her it's not going to waste nor will it be found in any thrift stores. We will put it to good use AMEN. And me and my friend left. She also had 3 bags, but I dont know what she got. I was having a ball in that room. I felt like I had hit the jackpot. Ok well good bye again and you all take care of yourself😊.

    I enjoyed watching the 3 of you going to the thrift stores. Crystal at BOD would have been in heaven with the doilies. She definitely would have bought all of them at those prices. She loves using them. The prices on the blankets were amazing. I hope that someone gets and cuddles with them. You're right so much work, but at least available for someone who can't do what we can. Hugs 😇🙂

Thay will also keep me busy. Thanks for taking all of us along to the thrift stores. It's to cold to get out here today, we are in the 30s our Texas weather changes from one day to the next. You can never tell with Texas weather. You all take care of yourself and God Bless you all bye.😊

    That crochet thread, a kid or teenager who likes to make friendship bracelets it would be good for them. I know I used to use crochet thread to make friendship bracelets when I was a teen because I could get a lot for a little and make a lot for cheap. Even when I taught my daughter to make them that's what I bought to show her how to make them.

    The doily with purple around the edge reminds me of some doilies my grandmother made. She was always making doilies or bedspreads. I never enjoyed using the thread to crochet but I made myself make a set of doilies. I have made several over the years with a very light weight yarn and I made them very large. I think when I finish projects I'm working on ( baby blanket for great granddaughter) and a poncho for the other great granddaughter) that I would do some doilies again. I enjoyed this video to see items others have made.
