Anyway, really quickly, this is what I've been up to...
Because every new baby deserves a boob hat...this one was for a friend and his wife and new baby from my High School. I've made several others, and even crocheted one (which is a lost art for me).
Our Easter/Spring wreath...which now has a prettier bow...from an idea I found on Pinterest.
The new baby's winter hat, which I finished at the end of winter, you know how that goes. Hopefully next year he'll still be able to wear it. The pattern is the Keegan Hat by Irishgirlieknits. I made the socks too, but they are too small since he has ginormous feet like his daddy. I plan to give them to a good friend of mine who should be having her baby anyday...maybe their new baby and Z will even be date twins, a year apart.
Re"upholstered" the nasty kitchen chairs....they look fresh now.
The quilts...ahhh. Finally got back to my sewing machine... This one is for my third grader's teacher. The kids can all sign in the white space and the teacher has a nice way to remember her kiddos.
This quilt is for my daughter's Kindergarten teacher. Thanks to the moms that went into the art classroom, we have some fabulous handprints.
This is a mini-quilt. I made it with the left over squares from Z's baby blanket which I made last spring.
The lollipop centerpiece....I added my kids' handprints around the flower pot to personalize. Another idea I grabbed from Pinterest.
Bok Choy boys...knitted up...they still need details. My kids loved the little silicone toys last year.
I also made another handprint quilt for my 4 year old's preschool teachers. And I'm currently working on some quilts for the in-laws and my parents...I'm a busy momma, but what else could I do but craft!
