The littles and I had a nice evening today. Before dinner we made some white chocolate and cranberry oatmeal cookies.
After dinner we taste tested and then went upstairs for some box opening fun!
I missed a few…
As I have been organizing my blog and my patterns, it has come to my attention that I have missed sharing a few patterns with you. What a sad thought! I love to share. So here they are!
Deck the Halls
We have been rather far behind this year. We just put up the tree a few days ago.
Hopefully this is the last fake tree year. I really prefer real trees, but it wasn’t in the cards this year.
So it begins! Craft Hope:: Project 19
As the girls still enjoy sharing a room, we have an empty room upstairs, which will one day (hopefully) be Kyla’s. For now, Owlivia ~ that cute little owlet lovey ~ sits in slumber waiting for her friends to arrive.
Finally, today, we found the time to open the boxes that have started to arrive. We were crazy busy last week, plus we all were a bit sickly, and didn’t want to get the softies all germ~ie!
Miss Clause Hat ~ Free tutorial!
With cute braids woven in on the sides and a playful pom pom on top, the Miss Clause Hat is a fun look for the gift giving gal!
What a week!
Last week was quite long and short, all at once. Do you know what I mean?
Before I get into it, I should share that I finally released my Fanny skirt pattern. I am having a give away for any one of my patterns (winners get to choose which one they want) over on my facebook page.
More to come
I haven’t forgotten you, my friends. Things have been a whirlwind around here. Yesterday and today is the Holiday Gift Shop at the girls’ school, and I have a table there. So I have been busily making items for the kids to buy for Holiday gifts. I forgot my camera yesterday, but it is packed up this morning, so I will get you some photos today!
Softie and Toy Links for Project 19
Here is the list I promised for Project 19 to all my Craft Hope peeps! Links to various free patterns for softies. If you have more links you think should be added, just let me know. I hope this helps inspire you all to create some love for child victims of Sandy. I have done my best to only include free patterns, in the spirit of Craft Hope, however, if you know of a paid pattern or a coupon code that others may be interested in, go ahead and share that info with each other on the Craft Hope Facebook page.
Owlet Lovey – a sweet crochet pattern for the little one you love
Owlet Lovey is here! As I told you when I announced my teaming up with Craft Hope, I have a tutorial for you! I’ve always found lovies rather adorable. The mix of blankie and stuffie is just too cute for words. So, without further ado, here is my little tutorial for a crocheted owlet lovey.
I did it again
Once again I have teamed up with the amazing Craft Hope! The new web page is still under construction, but the Facebook page is running smoothly. So hop on over to the Craft Hope Facebook page and give them a “like.” Then check out Project 19 :: Dolls, Animals, and Monsters. Oh My! Share it with anyone you know who may be able to make handmade softies for kids who lost so much from Sandy. There are two people collecting for this project, the lovely Katrina up in NH, and yours truly.
I am working on a tutorial for you all for
