Why didn't I learn

how to crochet when my grandma tried to teach me. She would make socks for everyone in the family, we had scarves and gloves. She constantly would be in her chair knitting or crocheting. My mom only makes scarves. One winter she went nuts and gave all of us scarves. Maybe she can add a few inches to make a blanket. HA! Now I see stuff like this for $30+ and I hate that I didn't pay attention to the lessons. Thank God for www.etsy.com because my Lord there are some talented folks out there.

I have ideas brewing in my head for our X-Mas card and Announcement.
How sweet are these?!
