Hello! I haven't been the best about updating my blog, but I'm here now and ready to do it, and praying I get better about posting more often! I don't have pictures of all the things I've finished since I last updated, but I have pictures of some of my favorite things that I've done!
To start out, I made a pair of camouflage baby booties, I love them, of course all baby items are super adorable!
 |
| I love the camouflage yarn, it's really cute, and super fun to work with! |
Second, I made another doily, for a long time I was in a doily making mood, but now I think it'll be a little while before I make another one! This last one is for myself! I've made a lot of purple doilies, and don't have any that I've kept!
 |
| I used all leftover crochet cotton to make most of my doilies, and still have more purple left! |
Next....I made up a pattern for baby socks, this pair is for my moms doll, but her doll is about the size of a newborn baby.... I love making baby stuff! The socks were super easy, and I was pretty pleased with the way they came out!
 |
| I used leftover sock yarn from the pair I made myself |
I also made a purse and a matching wallet, this is my winter/Christmas purse, it's more like a drawstring bag, but it still works as a purse....once again, I was able to use leftover yarn....I love when I able to do that!
 |
| I like this because it looks kind of old-fashioned and the light colored yarn is a little sparkly! |
I made this little outfit for my moms doll, I made up a pattern for a dress and matching bonnet, the yarn I used has sparkles in it and it was fun yarn to work with!
 |
| You can't really tell in this picture, but the dress is actually really full! |
Lastly, I made a cape! I had been wanting to make one but patterns are expensive! However, a few months ago there was a sale on patterns at Joanns and I got a pattern for $2! Praise the Lord! Then I realized the pattern I bought used fleece, which is usually $10 a yard...BUT! I was on Joanns.com a few weeks ago and they had a sale...it was half off! I was so excited and ordered some! Then when it came in, I started sewing my cape together! It was my first time doing button holes, and for some reason I was having the hardest time figuring out how to use to button hole foot, but eventually, I figured it out....God is good! =) The cape is really warm so I think I might be able to use it as my winter jacket!
 |
| This is the front of the cape, not the best of pictures though |
 |
| And the back of the cape....I love the bottom ruffle! |
Well...that's about all I have to post for now! Praying everyone has a great day and (just in case I don't get around to posting for a while), have a very merry CHRISTmas!!!
