birthday gifts 2009

It was my birthday on Saturday and WM was a bit disappointed. He had been late in ordering books from the Book Depository in the United Kingdom and only one had arrived.

I think I'd like to make the wrap in the top left corner. It's done in filet crochet [a technique I've never tried]. You can see a bigger picture here; look under the "book" for the word copyright and click, you should get the page with the wrap.

Apparently I have three more books to wait for - my birthday will extend over several days I think!

    Happy Birthday for Saturday. How nice to extend it over a few days!

    Filet crochet is very easy (in my opinion!). Pretty much just trebles and chains. Good luck with the wrap.

    happy birthday Lynne! I love extending birthday joy. We have good husbands, don't we?

    Filet crochet is great. No shaping!

    Happy birthday! And I must admit that I kind of like extended present receipt -- it's sort of fun to make the day last and savor each one as it comes :)

    Happy Birthday Lynne, I hope you had a good one!!!

    PS: The Book Depository is great, isn't it? Much cheaper than Amazon or Fishpond!

    happy belated birthday.
    May you live long !
    a .50 cal bullet having your name on it is a nice gift idea to present on a birthday.
