Wristlets

Trying to make a wristlet.
No pattern, just looking thru tutorials and finding which one I like
I just want to fit what I need to carry around with me.

This one I made for my SIL.
I'm not happy how the ends of the zipper area turned out when turning, so I think I will order a bit more of this fabric and retry.
Sad, since I did soooo good in lining up the print pieces at the seams!

It's snowing!

Or it was a few weeks ago!
That's when I got the idea to crochet a bunch of snowflakes,
to use them as gift toppers and in our Christmas cards.
24 + to go!
Now if only they made peppermint starch!

Bags.

I'm pretty picky about a tote bag.
I dislike advertising, bulky unused pockets and dividers, etc.
So I've been looking at all the lovely designs out there.
So much time and work!
WOW are there some majorly talented seamstresses out there :)

I've decided to try my hand,
and see what I can come up with after attempting a few basic patterns.
Perhaps I can finally find that ONE BAG that I really love!

Knits!

I fell in love with these pink knits from a few rows away!
I knew that I had to make something for the nieces.
My husband found the peace/heart print.

Surprising me.....it goes perfect!

I had to make our youngest nieces just a tad silly to fit her personality,
so I added the band of stripes on one leg.

They make me think of mini-Victoria's loungewear.

Wow! It's been awhile.....

Again, wow!

It has been quite awhile since I have posted here.

How do people find the time to create, photo, and blog?!

I'm just happy to get the first done!

For archival purposes, here's a run down of some of my Fall projects.

I made these for our oldest niece
I love the tunic tops with leggings.
So cute!

I absolutely love love LOVEEEEE
LOVE
LOVE
LOVE
the owl prints.
SO happy the 70's prints are resurfacing!

They are just so adorable!
