I went to another Giving Artfully Charity Crafting Night this month.
I had a great time being with some really nice people, making things for charity, and enjoying some good snacks.
I made some baby booties, which came out really well. It took me a few tries to get it right, but I got it in the end.
Here are some pictures of the booties I made.

Meetup #3: Making Hats for Preemies and Pillowcases for Cancer Patients
Today was the third Meetup event I went to. It was a charity craft event, where we made hats for preemies, and pillowcases for cancer patients.
I hadn't done any knitting or crocheting in a while, so this was a perfect excuse for me to start up again.
The women there were very nice, although I think I was the youngest one there. But, I had a good time.
I crocheted a hat, and it came out pretty good, although I made a minor mistake during the process. Here is a picture of the finished product:
Purple is my favorite color, so that's why the hat is purple. It looks pretty good, seeing as this is only the second thing I've crocheted.
All in all, today was a good day, and I am so happy that I was able to make something for someone in need.

Sorry For the Long Pause in Posting
Easter was on the eighth, and I celebrated at my sister's house. I had a good time. I absolutely love seeing my niece and nephew. I just wish I could see them more often. They live an hour away from me. But, at least I get to see them as often as I do.
They loved their Easter baskets. They had a lot of fun looking for Easter eggs, too. My brother-in-law asked me to hide the eggs out in the yard. So I hid 2 dozen eggs for my niece and nephew. It was fun watching them look for the eggs.
One thing I gave my niece and nephew were this micro kites, which were mini kites. I played around with my niece's kite for a bit, and had a lot of fun with it. So, the day after Easter, I went to Walgreens (where I got the kites), and bought one for myself. It's in the shape of a butteryfly. I haven't used it yet, but I will soon.
This past Tuesday, I had a friend over for some knitting/crocheting time. Besides that, we also cooked and ate quesadillas and watched a few episodes of Gossip Girl. She also taught me how to crochet. So now I will be doing some crocheting for a while.
I haven't been feeling well for almost a week now. It doesn't feel like a cold, but my nose is stuffy/runny, and I'm tired a lot. I really hope I feel all better soon. I hate feeling sick.
Well, that's all for now. More to come later.
