A quick post. My chickens would not leave their run the last few days, and now I know why. I had a feeling something was a threat to them. It was literally watching them, so I may need to come up with a way to net the entire coop to cover their current run. I'm hoping it just moves on. Between everything needing done or going on around here, we have not finished the new coop yet (and I wish we had).
I picked these balls of yarn to decide on my next go-to project (with very limited free time). All of them were in my stash. The color on the left may end up a winter hat/scraf for my husband, and the right was chosen to crochet a new baby blanket pattern. My husband was shocked the white and pick were in my stash (huge on pound from Caron). Yes they were. I was an ambitious person when I did baby items for craft shows.
Current crochet project. A big thank you to Betsy at Blogspot The Simple Life of a Queen. She had shared her crocheted blankets on her blog, and graciously shared where to find the pattern. I don't think I have any blue in my stash, but this one is turning out stunning. Plus, my husband is happy to see me de-stash the stash. I'm not sure yet if I will keep this one, or donate it. I do like to have a few on hand for gifting.
A big thank you to Leigh for her post on 5 Acres and a Dream blogspot, for her Prepper Check post. We are currently working on more prepping. The hurricane, and everything else going on in this world, has us concerned. If you haven't read her post, it has some very good information.

Thanks for sharing the link to the giveaway, Kristina! I appreciate it and you've earned a second entry for sharing. Your current crochet project is lovely! Thanks for sharing the link to the prepping article. I have been putting a little of this and a little of that away for quite some time now and, if things don't fall completely apart, should be in good shape going in to winter. Joining you in prayer over all those in the path of Hurricane Milton. God bless you, Kristina! Blessings!
Those Bald Eagles are awful. Your baby afghan is a beauty!
Rebecca, you are welcome. I am still looking for a few items to prep with, but I think we are gaining on that matter.
Far Side of Fifty, most people in our parts love to see the Eagles, but not me. They will swoop up a chicken in no time. Thank you in regards to the baby blanket. I do not have a home for it yet, but I may just keep it for gifting.
Smart chickens. It's amazing how they know. The baby blanket is lovely. Such a pretty pattern. Someone will be pleased with it! And thank you for the shout-out. :)
Leigh, the chickens always seem to amaze me. Even my husband thought it was strange they would not leave the coop. The Eagle is still hanging around too. It would be nice if it moved on. Thanks, the blanket is taking a bit longer to finish, but I am happy to use up stash yarn too.
You are doing such a beautiful job on the baby blanket. Isn't it a fun pattern. Fairly simple to memorize but looks very intricate.
I hope that eagle keeps it's distance from the chickens, although they are beautiful, they can be nasty too.
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy
Betsy, thank you, and thanks for sharing the pattern location. I love it, and so far, those I have showed it to, love it too. Yes, the Eagle's can stay away from my chickens.
