I took a short break from working on the Hoover Blanket (At 230 stitches per row a break is necessary sometimes!) to knit this tiny little hat for this little guy: My nephew was born on Tuesday, but we...
I made my nephew a quilt. He's due to be born sometime tomorrow and I can't wait to meet him! I've made him a lot of things lately, but I saved the quilt for last, mostly because I had...
The toddler spent Saturday with his grandparents while hubby and I painted a downstairs bedroom. Yep, we painted what used to be the office in chocolate brown and sky blue for the little guy. He'll be moving downstairs to...
I'm making surprisingly quick progress on the Hoover Blanket. And not much progress on anything else. That's about a weeks worth of work up there. It helps that I'm dragging it to the couch twice a day to prop...
This is what was in the great package I got from Robyn for the Vintage Heart Swap. I should have posted this at least a week ago, but things got a little bit crazy around here. We moved my...
I loved Shel Silverstein when I was growing up. Actually, I still love his work; I can't wait to share his poems and stories with my own kids. Hubby and I have had several occasions in life where we've...

Another item hiding in the basket I gave my sister-in-law was this bag. And I'm going to brag a bit here; I designed this puppy. This is actually version 2 of the bag, and there will definitely be a...
The applied I-cord bug, that is. That's a photo of the finished knit baby blanket I gave my sister-in-law in the basket at her shower. It's really just a basic log cabin with an applied I-cord border. The I-cord...
I made my boys matching shirts for Valentine's Day this year. When I printed all the hearts for the Mid-Winter Gocco Swap and the Valentine Swap, I also printed one on a shirt for hubby. Just before I made...
Here it is. The moses basket came from the Baby Center store. I looked all over to find one that was simple, affordable, and had some linens with it. I t was stuffed full with a ton of things....
So I've been swamped. I've sewn and knitted myself into a slump of tiredness. And in the process I've neglected my blog, to thank a really super sweet swap partner, and myself. Shara sent me an awesome hanging valentine as...
