Easter Newborn Hats and Diaper Cover (Bunny and Lamb)

Embroidered Light-Blocking Curtains

My mom's recent time-consuming project was making curtains for my daughters' room.  They have been begging for some room-darkening curtains.  I don't understand this because the loudest pleading came from the child that is up at the crack of dawn (CANNOT sleep in) and the reason there was a problem anyway is because they tore up the blinds in their room.

Fun at the Glamberjack Party!

Shelly, a fellow crafter, awesome party planner/thrower, and friend from back in middle school and high school invited me to her birthday/crafting party.  Her original party date was snowed out, so it was rescheduled to yesterday.  It was an amazing party!

Crocheted Beards and Mustaches!

I started making beards a couple of months ago, determined to make some Duck Dynasty "costumes".  I succeeded in making a "Jase" hat and beard and a "Willie" beard (it just needs an American flag bandana).  I was planning on making some "Si" and "Phil" ones, but before I finished up the final touches on the first two, a friend of mine asked me if I could make a couple of beards for her for an upcoming craft/birthday party.  Her theme is "Glamberjack"--lumberjacks with GLAM!

We're Going International!

You heard it here first!  This week, I received an order on Etsy for three of my Minion hat and goggle combos to go all the way to Normandie, France!

What do Crocheting and Scripting Have in Common?

It's official!  I just got the call today that our ministry proposals were accepted by the church leadership, so I will be starting a crochet class/club and my husband and I will begin building a drama ministry at church.

What Does the Fox Say? Reveal

A few days ago, you may have seen a sneak peek post of some embroidery my mom was working on.  Now, it's time for the big reveal!!!

Valentine's Day Crocheted Hat

I made hats for each of my children for Valentine's Day, but I decided to do one for myself.  I had seen a picture of a cute hat that I wanted to recreate, so I have spent the past couple of weeks off and on, working on making up a pattern for it.  I finally got it done and made a scarf to go with it.  I think if I do it again, I might take out a row or two on the slouchy part.  My oldest daughter originally said that it looked like a Strawberry Shortcake hat.  Hmmmm....  not what I was going for.  My other daughter said she would probably like it in black with maybe a blue band.  The original picture I saw was grayish khaki with a black band.  I may try this again in black, test the pattern again before I put this in my Etsy shop or make the pattern available.  What do you think about it?  (I talked my daughter into modeling it for me.)
