Bad Photos But A Very Cute Subject

This is from a month ago. Sorry, I have been doing, but not taking the time to take good photos. Or any photos. These are from my phone.  Please, use your imagination and edit them anyway you would like.

When it got cold in Florida, I decided MAC needed a hat. I crocheted one. It was too small. It was kinda ugly too. I decided to try knitting again and  I made four more hats. None. Of. Them. Fit. My only excuse is that I was not in the same state as the baby. The lovely photo of hats on my knees was what I took to text to Jess to show her how clever I was being.  ...... At least I got a lot of practice and his momma let me torment him by making him wear the closet to fitting hat.

Man I love this boy!

My Ode To Felt....

Or, what I didn't show you at Christmas......  

When it seemed as if everyone here, here, here,  here , here and here, but me was making lovely felt things..... I actually was. Trying. I came up with an idea for a garland. I wanted to add some other things but life kept happening. There are spaces to add them next year. Or the year after. 

Anyway, behold, my felt tree garland. It's pretty long. I think I made about forty trees. It was simple but a bit time consuming. I used a nice wool blend felt bought at Joann. There are four pieces for each tree. Sew two together down the middle. Finger press those open and sew two two-piece units together down the middle. 

Done. 

Mostly.

For the Grandmas

Micah wore his first pair of real shoes today- I thought you'd all like a picture--

This is the first time I have tried to photograph him on my own... I even 'edited' the photos... then I put the old and new version up on the screen and made Uber tell me which he liked better-- he chose the ones I edited! Woot! Anyway... I really need to take a class or something because it took a good 30 min for two photos and they are just barley different from what I started out with... haha...

Wedding Invitations

I drew up these invitations the other day for a bride but because of time constraints they won't be able to get them printed in time to use them. So I get to share them with you now! The bride is planning to do 1,000 paper cranes as her wedding theme - In case you don't know if you make 1,000 cranes you get a wish, how cool is that? She also included this Walt Disney Mulan Giclee as inspiration since she received it as a gift from her fiancée.

This is what I came up with:

And in other exciting news I am starting to offer my invitations for purchase in my Etsy Shop as PDF's for printing at home or you could send them in to a professional printer. So far I only have one option up in the shop but I going to be adding to it over the next few days and I will also be willing to take on custom orders.
