If you remember last month I mentioned that my good friend was about to have a baby. Well, I think it’s funny because that VERY day she was in the hospital giving birth to the cutest little guy! I made this little hat for Troy a couple of weeks ago out of a pair of…
A couple weeks ago I got a pretty funny request for some escape proof pajamas. My sweet little niece likes to takes her clothes off and play with her diaper, and it’s smelly contents! We like to encourage artistic expression, but needless to say, my sister was getting tired of cleaning up THAT mess. (Juniper…
Juniper and I went through my fabric last weekend. I attempted to organize it, and she played with each piece. Some of them became princess dresses, some forts, and one became a baby that she carried around for almost an hour. (Oh my goodness have I got a funny story about that!) I, of course,…
I cleaned up my craft room last week, and having everything put away always makes me want to make something! So I used a pattern from my Craft Hope book and made a pretty doll for a certain little girl who just turned 1. And I really couldn’t get away with NOT making one for…
Once again I find myself well into the new year with a small pile of Christmas gifts that still need to be mailed. (At least it isn’t June yet!) That apron took me SO long! If I ever make another apron, it will definitely be a simpler pattern. I’m hoping to finally have everything wrapped…
This blog is being guest posted on by Crystalyn’s evil genius husband. Now I know what most of you are thinking: “Hey, I know her husband, he’s not evil, and he’s defiantly not a genius!” Well, I have always taken the Columbo approach to my evil geniusing: Make em’ think you’re a bumbling idiot and…
We stumbled across this cute dress up crown tutorial tonight, and Juniper just had to have one. She even helped me pick out the fabric and sat on my lap while I sewed it together. Needless to say, she is sleeping with her new crown on, and I don’t think she’ll take it off any…
We woke up to a pretty surprise today, our first snow! So fun! And yes, those are socks… I don’t own any gloves yet ha! We celebrated our first snow day by building our very first fire in our fireplace. Perfect for warming up after the inevitable snow ball fight. After lunch, I got some…
My craft room has been slowly taken over by a band of poetry reading, bank robbing, ballerina sock monkeys. They have finally been boxed up and shipped to Texas where they will be finding new homes with little kids who were affected by the wild fires. I am thoroughly in love with CraftHope. I love…
I finally got to spend some time in my (extremely unorganized) new craft room this weekend. It felt good to get the sewing machine out! I made this cute shirt for a cousin’s 1st birthday gift. I love how it turned out! Hopefully it fits her. Happy birthday Ada Grace!
