Been busy making a few gifts.  My granddaughter just turned 1 year old.  I tried the onesie with a skirt for the first time.  Turned out so cute.  Then I crocheted lace on two pair of socks.

 



The one pair I added beads.  A little flash for Christmas!

 

 

I have made two scarves using Red Heart Boutique Sashay, the one they make those ruffle scarves out of.  But I just did a garter stitch on size 15 needles and then attached a ruffle on the ends.  I really like this look.





I made one of these ornaments and my daughter asked me to make more for her to give away. 

 

 

Well, enough for this posting.  But I do have more to share.  :)

From Michigan where the weather changes often.

 

Need to stop using the phone as a camera....

So...I made a couple of things for the newest grandbaby a while back.  A bunny and a bib.

Just a little bunny to chew on.  She is 5 months old now.  What a spirited child!

 

About the phone as a camera...

I am getting quite upset about the quality of the photos.  I hate the way the color turns out.  Too bad it is so easy to grab!

 

For the next few days I will be altering a beautiful prom dress for my oldest granddaughter.  She is a very pretty girl with a sweet disposition. The gown is to die for...peach, sweetheart neckline, "gems" and  sequins all over the bodice, chiffon flowing from the bodice.  She will be the queen of the ball.  :)

 

Mother's Day is coming soon.  I need to find a gift for My Mom.  I usually try to get my three daughters something too.  Pinterest here I come...

 

Yesterday was My Dear Youngest Daughter's birthday.  I had bought her a burlap lined wire basket a while back.  She is into photography.  I filled it with a blanket I had knitted for her sisters, 38 years ago, a tiny little hat for newborn photos, an old frame that I printed a "Frozen" clipart on fabric and placed inside, and a camera strap cover I had made.

 

 

I also made some Easter cards.  I found this on Pinterest and 'copied'  to make my own using my Cricut and Cuttlebug!

 

 

 

Next time I'll try to remember to put on a couple things I made for the newest Grandbaby.

Just a Bit and a Bag

Hubby and I went to Florida for nine days.  We had lovely weather.  I had to go to Universal Islands of Adventure to see Perry Hotter!  We also went to Sanibel Island, our first visit there.  I loved all the shells.  Amazing how you can bend over and scoop up a hand FULL of shells!

Before we left I was able to make a tote bag from my Maui coffee burlap bag.  I used fabrics in my stash.  It was a great bag to take on this trip.

That's about it for today!

It's been way too long since I've posted here.  About time I used this forum again.  With Dropbox and my cell phone taking photos, this should be easier to add photos.

I have developed an interest in making bags, totes, and purses.  I have made a few tote bags, and just finished a purse. 

Today there was a trip to the local quilt shop for fabric at "Seven Sisters Quilt Shop".  Always a fun trip...and too much money spent!

It's late and I will need to continue another day.  Night!
