Crafty Stuff Update

It has been a while since I posted some pictures of crafts I have made.  Here are a few things I have finished lately.  We have a grand niece - my sister's first grandchild.  So of course, many things have been made for her!
Cute little bonnet

 I had plenty of yarn left over, so I made another carriage blanket with the peach and orange yarn.

New hat for my grandson - "Hometown" yarn (LB)

Another hat for my grandson
 These are the latest booties for a friend who is having TWINS.  The soles are made from the last of the Berroco Suede yarn.  The "uppers" are made from Aslan Trends Guanaro (green) and Ivernal (red).  Both work very well, as will any sport or worsted weight yarn. 





It HAS been a long time since I posted pictures of projects.  These are Christmas presents for family.  In my defense, I do not like posting pictures of gifts before the holiday, ha-ha!

This looks rose-y although it is more red
 That is all for now.  Thanks for looking at all my crafts.  I'll work at putting things up here more often so it won't be overwhelmed with photos.

Halloween Is Coming!

Close To My Heart has so many fun holiday themed stamps, papers and embellishments.  I just had to get some of the Halloween goodies and make some cute cards.  Here are the three I made.  Two of them are from patterns in the CTMH Idea Book, and the one with the ghost is a design I made up on my own.








Here they all are lined up on my front porch steps, ready to mail off to my Halloween buddies.  If you like these cards, you may purchase all the supplies to make them on my CTMH website.  Look for the "Workshops on the Go" Moonlight Scrapbooking Kit on p. 59, stamp sets "All Hallows Eve" on p. 71 and "Creepy Creatures" on p. 58.  Thanks for looking and I hope everyone has fun with their ghosts and goblins on Halloween.
