unblocked crochet projects

By On October 18, 2011 · 3 Comments

I’ve been hooking up a storm lately. I finished this scarf and I’m using up the extra bits to make a bookmark. I’ve also started a new scarf that’s almost done. I’m not sure what’s gotten into me. Maybe it’s the cool Autumn weather?

I can’t wait to block the scarf [...]

I’m not sure how our Summer got so busy. Kindergarten starts soon and I should be soaking up these last few weeks of kid activities. But I have to admit, I’m ready for some alone time.

handmade goodies from the farmers’ market

By On June 8, 2011 · 1 Comment

There’s so much more to the Farmers’ Market than fresh veggies. Last weekend we went with my parents and my mom wanted to buy a few things for my daughter. The hair clip and headband are from Owl People (my friend Kaitlyn) and are lovely.

My experiment in crocheting motifs with self-striping yarn just keeps growing. I’m joining as I go, and it’s now destined to be a scarf. I’m going to have to block as I go, too, so I don’t run out of pins.

valentine’s day pencil cards

By On February 7, 2011 · 1 Comment

We are doing very simple Valentine’s Day cards this year. I wanted to keep my daughter involved in the process, but between preschool and nature school, she’s got over 30 classmates. Even though she loves crafts, I can’t imagine her staying interested in such a big project.

bee’s knees denim knee patch

A few weeks ago, my daughter fell and skinned her knee. Her knee healed fine, but her pants not so much. We love these jeans. They fit her really well, which is rare. She asked me to fix them, so I put them in the pile for the craft retreat. I was [...]

another successful flower appliqué

By On April 20, 2010 · 1 Comment

My daughter doesn’t really like wearing hats, unless it’s her Nebraska Husker hat. I bought this little bucket hat at Neat Repeatz, long before it would ever fit her. I just fell in love with the denim and unfinished edges. It finally fits, but I knew I’d have to come up with [...]

success!

By On March 25, 2010 · 2 Comments

The appliqué experiment worked! My daughter wore her grandmother’s hand knit sweater this week. She loves it. She even asked her friend to feel how soft it is. Then she told me that it was too hot. Oh, well. I got a picture at least!

another garden scarf!

By On March 2, 2010 · 9 Comments

This was a gift for one of my daughter’s friends. The colors are so beautiful, it was hard not to keep it for myself! I decided to make it out of cotton because Spring is right around the corner. (Really! It is!) I hope she gets a lot of wear out of [...]

flower pins for haiti, doctors without borders

By On January 18, 2010 · 1 Comment

As soon as I hit “publish” last week on my flower pin post I decided to donate all of the proceeds from my flower pins to Doctors Without Borders. I figured I needed a few more in my shop, though. There are currently four, but I plan to make more. I’ve [...]
