Choices!

I received a special order for a baby sweater with a matching hat and after making a set for her, I got stuck at home with bad weather and sick little ones. So, I decided to make a second set! :) Just to offer another option. Hey! Everyone likes choices right? Here is what I made:


Seems like I made the right choice offering choices!! I have been asked to make another one right away!! Gotta love repeat customers!! Now to brainstorm the perfect little boy sweater...

Seasonal

My mom is an amazing quilter and crafter and I am in awe every time I go to her house as she shows me everything she has accomplished. I truly have a lot to live up to! Last year she did a 12 x12 little quilted piece for each month and she hung it on a little stand. Most of them were so adorable and I enjoyed watching each month as she made new ones. This year she is doing something similar but they came prepackaged in months similar to a block of the month club. They of course are darling!! I do not have the time or money to make monthly quilted hangings but I thought perhaps I could make something a little more suitable for the yarn-y stuff I do! So I made some stitch markers!! I made little red and white heart beads out of sculpey and 2 little hearts with faces. Seeing as this is the first time I've ever made anything with polymer clay I think they turned out really cute!! I also made an owl (where I got the idea in the first place) from www.repeatcrafterme.com where she made such cute owl stitch markers. Anyway, it gave me ideas for other things to make as the year goes. Thanks for looking!!
