Baby Hats

New hats for the little one: knotted caps...Knit caps- I remember why I don't knit very often. I'm not very good at it and these took forever!

MORE! Felt Food

To go with her new oven mitt, I have been whipping up more felt food for the play kitchen.

Flower topped vanilla cupcakes...

Chocolate chip cookies...


Strawberries...

I have a couple more felt baked goods projects in the works. Coming soon.

Play Kitchen Oven Mitt

Little oven mitt for D to go with this apron I made last year. I tried to get a picture of her wearing both, but my model was uncooperative.

Aquamarine Necklace

Necklace that I made to wear at a wedding last weekend. I wanted to use the big piece of aquamarine- the rest is just Czech glass- I love these colors.

I don't really wear jewelry, but I love pieces from Anthropologie. I was going for something like this...

Knit Green Skirt

Another project with knits! I used this skirt from Old Navy as a template. I am unhappy with the hem, so I might rework it. The fabric is also a bit thinner than I remember when I bought it. It will be nice and light for this summer, though, when I will be feeling giant and hot!

Baby Swing Redo

With baby #3 on the way I've been wanting to work on some baby projects, but we really have all the baby stuff we need... too much of it probably. I did pull out our baby swing we received as a gift when I was pregnant with #1. It has barely been used- my kids were not big swingers despite the claims of baby books I was reading at the time (babies HAVE to have swings to be happy- what?) The jungle animals on navy background doesn't really "go" with my house, so I whipped up a cover. It fits...okay. Well enough anyway. Of course NOW I can't keep my 2.5 and 4.5 year olds out of the swing. Ha!

A little blanket I crocheted with yarn hanging around. Maybe this means we are having a boy? Three more months until we find out...

Ruffle Corsage T-Shirt

I found some ideas at this blog here and various links to turn this shirt...

into this shirt...

I'm not crazy about how it turned out- it's TOO ruffly I think. I'm going to redo it, maybe make the ruffles more floppy looking like the J.Crew inspiration shirt. I love all these ruffles on things (have you seen J.Crew or Anthropologie lately??), but maybe I'm not girly enough to wear this stuff? I'm going to keep trying...
