Newly Finished Sewing Projects

I don't typically sew alot but here are some things I have made over the last month or so.





This is a car seat blanket, it has holes for the 5point harness inside the car seat. This picture does not do this blanket justice. It is simply stunning. My sister who lives in Spokane, WA will adore it.


This is Sasha Modeling the head harness prototype (I still have to purchase a few more essentials before I can roll these out in my store).


This is a bandanna that attaches to the dogs collar.


This is a typical dog bandanna with velcro in the front that joins it.


This is a close up of the blue fabric used.


Here is Stitch modeling the blue dog collar and 5ft leash.


Here is Rocky modeling his blue bandanna that attaches to the collar.


Here is Stitch again modeling a dog bow that attaches to the dogs collar.


Here is the floral collar and 5ft leash.


Here is the typical do bandanna.

Recently Finished Crochet and Knit items

Well I have definitely waited too long before posting my pictures of crafts. I have several more projects to photograph but they are not 100% complete (just need to weave in the ends and photograph





Baby T-Rex hat, my son had dibs on this hat once I started making it.


Blue Pony Blocks Afghan- this is knit with a crocheted border.


Cozy Crochet Socks, these are from a lionbrand pattern.


This is a knit Mystery KAL from KrisKnits for March 2010.


This was a gift for a family friends son, for his 6th b-day, Cole loved it but I believe his parents and grandparents loved it more



This is a wedding ring afghan I made for my cousin William and his new wife Martha.


These socks were made for my mom. I started them last year and had high hopes of getting them completed for Christmas but that didn't work out as planned, but she has them now.

This is a Minnie Mouse Hooded Poncho.


This was made for a friends baby who turned 1, I also made matching ones for his sister (hers had a baby pink silk bow attached to one ear) and older brother.


This is a knit Mario wall hanging, this was suppose to end up being a scarf but I gave up because Mario seemed disproportionate.

Friendship Scarves



Well I have finially finished my Friendship Scarves from the Peaches and Creme Group on Ravelry. The one above was in the "Green" category, and the yarn must contain some green. The one below was "natural tones" so browns, blues, greens etc.

These Scarves were passed around to 4 other people and they worked a little bit with the color of their choice. This makes them absolutely unique

I have been working on WIP's and I am happy to say that I am down to - 2 scarves, 1 doily, 2 pairs of socks and 2 afghans.... so I am hopeful to get them all finished before starting anything else (well that take up a lot of time).

Evie's Angels For March


This time around I made an Angel doily shown above- the pattern is from Maggie's Crochet. The Angel squares below are my design, these were made to go with the last 2 Angel squares I sent her. These are in a royal blue, the camera has made them a bit lighter than they actually are.

YAY! Just finished my first Sweater


Well this is my very first sweater I have ever made. This is in Creative Knitting Jan 2009. This is knit with mercerized yarn I received in grab bag from Peaches & Creme.

I started this a couple of days after I received this issue. I believe I started it Sept/Oct 2008- I can remember doing it when Hurricane Ike came through TX. I did this outside when I had no power... plus it let the kids have a fun time outside.


Here is the cuff is it is just gorgeous, there are 3 bottoms in the back of the cuff, so you have the option of a closed cuff or an open cuff.


Here is a close up of the front of the sweater. This item fits perfectly. This item may have been a long time coming but i am happy to say it is finished. I am enjoying getting my old projects finished. This was the oldest WIP I had so it should be downhill from there.

Completed Sesame Street Hats



Well I now have a complete set of Sesame Street Hats. The last two that were missing were Bert and Rosita.
