Wool Eater Pillow

Here is a pillow that I just finished. It is the "Wool Eater pattern" which was fun to do. I forget where I heard or got the pattern from. I have added to my list an afghan in this pattern. I might get to it before I leave this earth. LOL My list keeps growing just like yours.

This pillow is for a very dear friend whom is so hot blooded that an afghan would just collect dust so I decided to make her a pillow. She is a dog lover so I put the doggie button in the center to dress it up a bit.






I hope everyone has a beautiful weekend.

Its been AWHILE!

I can not believe how long it has been since I have blogged. I have been busy working and making things. One big project that I have finished is an afghan for a good friend who loves the game "Settlers of Catan" So I found this pattern for it on this ladies blog and I went from there. I think it came out great and you can see hers and get the pattern by clicking on the link.

Here is a picture of the one that I made.





I hope that you are having a great week so far.

My first thank you letter.

Here is the thank you that I received. It is from the nurse at Pine Ridge Reservation OB Unit. It is my first personal thank you and I donated it through my Crafting for a Cause group. What a wonderful group of folks they are. Yeah I am a bit excited. It sure makes you feel good.



I just wanted to share with you, busy today cleaning out the garage and getting ready for the big garage/yard sale that we are having on June 5th through 7th. Wow, I have a lot of stuff to sell that I don't need.

The Tooth Fairy

One of my friends grandsons is getting ready to lose his first tooth so I offered to make him a pillow. I bought the pattern from JayBird Designs and it worked up nice and quick. Below is a photo of front and back. I used the green glow in the dark for the pocket so that the Tooth Fairy would have no trouble finding the place to put the cash or whatever it is that tooth fairies leave for the kids today. All it in I think it turned out cuter an I do hope that Master Colin likes it.








I also finally finished the laprobe that I was making for the elder group at the Crocheting for a Cause Group that I belong to, I think it will match on of the wheelchair bags that Cherri made perfectly.



Thats all for today. *HUGS*

Larksfoot Stitch baby sweater

As you know I have already made/created this sweater but have not written up the instructions. Yesterday I attempted to and only got too row 4 before giving up. So I went ahead and finished up this one and will start another and use a different method as my husband suggested. I am going to record myself making one and then I will play that audio back and write up the instructions. What a great idea. I sure admire all those designers out there that publish their patterns so quickly.

Anyway here is a picture of the sweater that I made yesterday. It's not bright newborn colors but will keep a baby warm regardless.

Diaper Jacket

Here is what I came up with for a diaper jacket to go with the blanket that I made. I am now working on the hat. I also made a cute pair of booties that I will post when I post a photo of the hat.
I really am going to try and get this pattern on paper for those of you who like it.






I hope that everyone has had a wonderful weekend.
