Gloves!

· categorized in Uncategorized,

One of my favorite things to design and make has, by far, been fingerless gloves! All I was lacking was the capability to be my own hand model and photographer at the same time. Well, my six year old has became my part time photographer and she loves it! I have to say she doesn’t …

Not Just a Crayon

· categorized in Kids, Miscellaneous,

Haha. I was so wrong. I said my last blog would be my last Christmas blog. Well, I forgot about this one. It’s not really a Christmas craft anyhow, we just used them for part of our presents for the kids’ friends and cousins. Besides, I got all my Christmas blogs done before February. I’m …

Bean Bags

This is my last Christmas blog post. Promise. Well, probably anyway. 🙂 I vividly remember looking at the presents under the tree each year when I was a kid, finding the biggest present first, then peaking to see if my name was on it. Likewise, when I got my pile of presents on Christmas it …

So… it has felt like Spring here these last couple weeks. So much so that we’re cleaning out our closets and I’m getting excited about gardening. The warm sun puts it into a person I think. I know we will likely lapse back into cold winter weather again, but, for now, here’s a little early …

Crochet Kitty

One of the kids favorite things in their Christmas stockings this year was the quickest last minute gift ever… ok so I must admit it wasn’t quick later but… it was Christmas Eve and I was thinking of the things I didn’t get made for them that I’d wanted to. So on with it and …

UPDATE 2-20-11: *The Droid Robot is available again at my store!* Drooooooiiid! This was a super fun project. I started it for my husband but after a few revisions I feel the little dude is ready to make his appearance. My husband loves his Google Android phone and here’s my version, in crocheted amigurumi form, …

Sweater Dress

Another blog about something a Christmas present. I got this sweater at a thrift store. It was made of an angora wool blend and was super soft and warm. The material was perfect for a transformation project! I finally decided to use it to make a hoodie sweater dress for my six year old. She has …

Ok, first, forgive the awful picture! It was late at night right before I wrapped up Christmas presents to head to the post office the next morning… hence the bathroom mirror picture.Now that you’re forewarned and informed that, no, I do not consider bathroom mirror pictures to be anything above lame… Finally I made something …

Basket Liner

· categorized in Sewing Tutorials,

For a while I had been wanting to give my 6 year old her own sewing basket. I thought she would love it and it would inspire her all the more. But I have to be honest that one motivation was to keep her from getting into my sewing stuff all the time. I got …
