Who's Crafty?
| Sat, 12-03-2011 - 3:09pm |
Between Black Friday weekend and today, I have spent more than $200 at Joanne Fabrics on material and notions. We're making fleece blankets for my nieces and nephew for Christmas and my daughter [17] is making fleece pillow cases for my 2 boys and a blanket for my youngest boy. Then I picked up a bunch of flannel to make PJ pants for everyone for Christmas and miscellaneous flannel to make burp rags and changing pads for the new baby. Oh yeah, some cute fabric to make a blankie for him too.
I don't sew much but love doing things like this. Pinterest is killing me for sewing ideas - so many neat things, and easy things, out there!
Who else does crafty things?

I love flannel too! I have so much of it around here
I will share some pictures - I need to find some time to sew - wish I had a room so I didn't have to clean up and put away all the time. Nap time isn't always long enough.

I love sewing... and most things crafty.
I wish I could sew but me and my machine don't get along very well. Can't figure out what's wrong with it right now so not practicing on it. I am a big time knitter (just started again after a ten year hiatus) and love playing around with felt. I just finished some little felt tree ornaments for two of my girls, knitted a cat for my daughter, a polar gift set for my youngest, and am going to work on a dog for my other daughter. I have knitted about four or so hats for Adam with plans on another one in the works. I am also working on completing a pair of leg warmers to go with a onesie we bought for him.
I've attached a hat I knit for Adam, a gift set I made for my Etsy shop, and the polar bear hat I've knitted for my daughter. I am going to either add earflaps with mittens at the ends to the hat or I might just make a scarf with mittens on the ends to match. I also made her a polar bear knitted animal with a blue knit sweater that has a felt heart with her name embroidered on it.
I still have so much to do as far as making presents. I've knitted some dishcloths for my mom and plan on making her three felt ornaments for each set of grandchildren she has. I also need to make some slippers for my other daughter and knit two hats for my nephews. Meanwhile mama could use a pair of fingerless gloves as the weather has gone really chilly here lately!
