Tie Blankies and Trivets

 Hey Folks!!! I made a Tie blanket for my unborn son James, i was actually looking for a winnie the pooh print to match his crib but i came across this instead. I just love the little animals. Its super soft too, i can't wait for James to be able to use it.

 The other side is just a plain solid light blue, goes great together.

 Doesn't it just look beautiful hanging off the side of the crib? :)

 Okid Dokie this blanket is old. Not that old maybe like 10 years im not exactly sure. Its a tie blanket made by Wes's (my husband) Aunt. She is really into crafts too, not crochet but lots of other stuff. Since ive been with my husband for a little over three years weve had it on the back of our couch only to be taken off during movie time. ITS COMFORTABLE. Thank you Aunt tracy

 Trivets!!! I got this pattern from ravelry, here it is if you want to give it a try. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/spring-trivets

 I decided to do a little painting :) I got these letters at Hobby Lobby half price. About 1.50 each along with three paint colors!!! Super cheap, and very pretty. I hung them up on his wall for decoration ABOUT TIME i say, i have been meaning to do this since he was born. 19 months too late lol but atleast i got it done

Mardi Gras!!!!

 So guess what??? I had no idea it was Mardi Gras til the day before and i still would of have no idea if everyone of Facebook wasnt writing a million things about it... Plus i had a request from a friend to make him a mask... so i looked up a pattern and got to work. Here is the link http://web.archive.org/web/20010710000206/members.aol.com/lffunt/mask.html

 I wish i could keep it :(  i feel like a ninja turtle

 I found out Thursday that i am having a boy!! I am not 21 weeks pregnant with my second.. thought i would share with yall :))

 This is his male parts

 This is the cutest ever... his feet

 Blast from the past... i made this blanket months ago and thought i would share it with you since i didnt have much for this week. I will have more for next week since ill be working mainly night shift.. I need to get back in the groove of things since so many things are changing right now. Just got a job and about to have another baby... whoa. I got this pattern from Hobby Lobby, one of the free ones hanging on the wall.

 Here is another picture

 I really like the colors in this one. I made this one months ago as well, it was given away as a gift

 I was in a star mood for a while there, i made this pillow actually for my son, he loves it. Sometimes he takes it to daycare :) I love him <3 This is my own pattern

 I try to get him to pose for the picture and dont you think he did a good job? He is my little cutie pie. Never mind the wet shirt though, you know how kids are.

 This one was really fun to make.... about twice the size of the other blankets (the others were baby blankets) I made this one for my aunt who is a big Dallas Cowboys fan!!! I just love it.


Ok ill be back next sunday with more goodies, my cousin asked me to make her a hat and besides working on my larger projects i got another little one in mind.. see ya

 Sorry guys i havent blogged in forever, i started working again and things are STRESSFUL around the house. I want to give a shout out for all the other pregnant women out there who are working there butts off at their job and at home AND have a child lol its hard!!! whew so what do you think of this cowl? Its super cute, here im wearing it as a scarf. DO you like? I got it off Ravlery. Here is the link http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/calm-cowl Let me know if any of you make this too. I just love it!!!!

 Here i am wearing it as a cowl. I like it this way better, i feel sophistocated. I need a hair cut BAD.

 I also tried it on as a hood and it really warms the ears, but the back is wide open so its not very attractive

My favorite blogger blogged!!! Im such a nerd... she made a scarf like this and i knew i just had to make it too. I love it when she leaves patterns. Here is a link to her blog http://dawndavis.blogspot.com/ and also here is the page she got the pattern from if you decide to make it as well http://1craftyboy.wordpress.com/2007/12/11/okey-dokey/
