{JMSQ's} My Simple Gnome Pattern
We leave Gnomes everywhere we travel. I make them in all color combinations. Aug. 14th 2010 we left the traditional colored gnome (M) in Silon Springs at the hotel we stayed at, then on the 16th we left the multi colored Blue (R) in Eureka Springs at the hotel we stayed at. The Green one (L) my Sister Stacy is enjoying. We love to leave them with a note of thanks for the wonderful stay and clean room along with a tip for the house keeper. I often wonder what they think when they find them. I also tell them to have fun with their gnome traveling & that they love having their photo's taking along with their new owners...smile
Skill Level: Easy & Fun
Size G (US) crochet hook. Two 6 mm safety eyes. Polyfill for filling.
You need 3 colors for your Gnome.
color #1 for your hat
color #2 white for face & beard
color #3 for body
For a traditional colored gnome, you would use red for the hat, white for face & beard & blue for the body, BUT, this is your gnome so make it whatever color you like best.
Stitches Used:
ch = chain
sc = single crochet
inc = increase
sl st = slip stitch
sts = stitches
NOTE:
Do NOT Join, use a marker to keep count of your rows

Sew bottom to gnome body (matching stitch for stitch) about 2/3 of way around.
Stuff firmly with polyfil. Finish sewing around and fasten off.
Beard: Cut 8 - 6" strands of white yarn, following photo, attach beard yarn (like you would fringe) between rows 7 & amp; 8 (as in photo above). I place 2 x 2 strands in middle between eyes, and 2 on each side of eyes. slowly un-twist yarn, now you have 4 single curly yarns that create a natural looking beard.. enjoy

Koffee Time - My Girls Only Date with Rhonda
Yesterday (Wednesday 8/25/10) My Precious Daughter Rhonda came by and picked me up and she & JesseAnne (Rhonda's Daughter - Our Granddaughter) went to Lunch at Western Sizzlin (BEST SALAD bar in Harrison). Jesse went home to study, and Rhonda & I went to Branson.
Our first show was at 1pm, we went to the "Fountains of Faith" Gospel Show At Waltzing Waters Theater, Branson MO. and enjoyed Tucker and Susan Hudson-Carman show. Oh how I loved listening to them sing and enjoyed the water show behind them.. AWESOME time. I Highly reccomend going to see their show if your ever in Branson.
I was also Blessed to buy some CD's and enjoyed listening to them on our drive back to Harrison.. Thank You to both to Susan & Tucker for brightening my day and also for Blessing our Beautiful Daughter with both your Friendship, Love & Kindness.
Then Rhonda & I went to Cold Stone and enjoyed a dish of ice Cream, YUMMY
After this, we went to RKO or RTO theatre and enjoyed an American Indian show. (I can't remember the official name of it) but it was another great show. Full of music, dancing and a story line. Good time by all that were there.
It's now 5pm and were heading for home, but I have one of my brain storm idea's, so we discussed it and I called Ron and told him we'd be home in 1/2 hr, have coffee and we'd go out to dinner. Then we called JesseAnne and had her meet us and we'd all go together. We did, and you guessed it, we went out to Western Sizzlin again for dinner. I'm telling you, They have the the best Salad Bar in Harrison and the rest of their food is good as well.
After such a wonderful day out with our daughter I hated to end our fun, but we did call it a night, gave lots of HUGS & KISS'es and am still smiling over our wonderful Mother/Daughter date in Branson.
Thank You Lord for Blessing me with such a Wonderful Thoughtful Daughter. I'm ever so Thankful & Grateful for her, our Rhonda. She has a heart of Gold, She's our Bright Mourning Star, and she lights up the lives of everyone she comes in contact with, and goes the extra mile to help others. How BLESSED we are that YOU LORD gave her to us to Brighten our Heart's & Lives. I Love spending time with Rhonda, just be together, How Blessed we are..AMEN

Cross Prayer Cloth (Crochet)
Crochet Prayer Cloth
What better way to honor our Lord then to create a Prayer cloth with His love & Prayers to remind us always of the ultimate Love He gave for us.
I’ve created this Prayer cloth with the Cross filled with X’s & O’s {Universal sign for Hugs & Kisses} and am pleased to share this with you.
Prayer Cloths are Scriptural, {Acts 19:12} “Some people took handkerchiefs and clothes that Paul had used and put them on the sick. When they did this, the sick were healed and evil spirits left them.” (NCV) {I like the NIV & KJV as well}
SPECIAL STITCH: X ‘s & O’s Stitch:
ch 1, skip 2 sts, 1 dc in next, then work 1 dc “BEHIND” dc you just worked and into the front of prev. st, ch 1, skip next dc
H hook
Row 1: Ch 28, 1 sc in second ch from hook, & in remaining ch’s., ch 2 and turn
Row 2: {ch 2 counts as dc} 1 dc in each st across, ch 1 turn

{“1,2,3 Trim”}
1 sc around cloth except in corners, work 3 sc in each corner, join, sl t into center sc of corner, {1 sc, ch 2, 3 dc in this st} *sk 2 sts, {1 sc, ch 2, 3 dc in next st} *Repeat Around. Join & Finish Off, tuck in tail

Adult Hat with Ribbed Brim
Dedicated to "ALL" of our Q-family,
Ron, Rhonda, Ronnie & Lance as well as "ALL" our Grandchildren.
This is another of my old (1989/90) patterns. It's truly easy and works up quickly.
I Pray your family is Blessed by it as ours has been over the years...
{© 2007 JMSQ}
Materials:
I Hook
SPECIAL STITCHES: {For Brim} FPHDC & BPHDC
These stitches are done with hdc, by working around the post of each stitch in the row below. Here's how:
Front Post Stitch: yo (yarn over) your hook; starting from the front, place hook from front to back to front around the post of st (stitch) in row below; complete as a hdc (half double crochet).
And the back post stitch is just an opposite of that ...
Back Post Stitch: yo, starting from the back, place hook from back to front to back around post of st in row below; complete as a hdc.
Directions:
Ch 5, join with sl st to form a ring
Row 1) ch 2, work 11 hdc in ring (12 hdc)
Row 2) ch 2, hdc in same st as ch 2, 2 hdc in each st around (24 hdc)
Row 3) Ch 2, *2 hdc in next st, hdc in next st *Repeat Around (36 hdc)
Row 4) ch 2, * hdc in next 2 sts, 2 hdc in next st. *Repeat around (48 hdc)
Row 5) ch 2, * hdc in next 3 sts, 2 hdc in next st. *repeat around. (60 hdc )
Row 6) ch 2, * hdc in next 4 sts, 2 hdc in next st. * Repeat around. (72 hdc)
{If your count is different then 72 sts, continue with increase until you have 72 sts}
Row 7 - 19) ch 2, hdc in each st around, attach to top of ch 2. Do NOT Fasten off after Row 19
Rib BRIM:
Row 20: ch 2, {fphdc in next st, bphdc in next) around. Join with sl st to top of ch 2.
Rows 21-25) Repeat row 20. At end of Row 25, fasten off.
NOTE:
I change colors for a different colored brim after row 17 and then continue with pattern as written above.
For larger hats, use larger hook, for wider brim, add a few extra rows of Row 20, for smaller hat use smaller hood
If your Blessed by this pattern, please consider making some hats and sharing with someone less fortunate then you are and whom will be Blessed by your Handwork & Love

Oat Bran Muffins
2 1/2 c. oat bran cereal (or any all grain cereal)
I use Bob's Red Mill 100% Whole Grain, cereal $3.49 (1 Lb 8 0z) bag
10 Grain Hot Cereal. The grains are: Wheat, Rye, Triticale, Oats & Oat bran, Corn, Barley, Soybeans, Brown Rice, Millet, & Flaxseed {Heart-Healthy}
1/4 to 1/2 c. chopped nuts (I use pecans, but reguar walnuts would be good)
1/4 to 1/2 c. dried fruit (I use raisins & cranberries)
1 TBS. baking powder
1/4 c. honey or molasses (I use Sorghum)
1 1/4 c. milk
2 eggs
2 TBS veg. oil (I use a mashed banana)
350 degrees, spray muffin tin with Pam cooking spray or us muffin papers
mix all together, bake 15 to 20 min
NOTE:
There is no presertives so you must keep in your refergator or freeze them. I freeze mine and we take them out as wanted for breakfast.
Also for normal muffin pan, this recipe will make 12, BECAUSE I use a "muffin TOP" pan, I usually get 15 or 16 at a time and they are BIG.
Come-on now, you know when you eat a muffin it's ALWAYS to TOP you eat first, right, well my Precious Mom found in some catalog called Muffin TOPS ONLY pan and she bought all of the women in our family one. We love and use our always. It's the greatest invention sence an electric coffee maker
