Kitchen Aid Cover revisited

WOW who knew how little happens with two kids? Well probably all of you! I have been working on finishing one project since Isabella was born... ridiculous!!!.... of course when I finish it you will see why it's taken me so long... my days consist of making the kids happy and trying to keep my house clean. FUN. 
Good thing they're so cute! Here's the required baby pictures. I've got to take some more pictures of this child, other then snapshots I haven't taken any since the last ones I showed you. She is now somewhere between 10-11 pounds, serious chunk. 
 Micah truly seems to just love her (hoping this continues) he chose to play with a doll the other day and was so proud to feed it, burp it, pat it and show it off to people (lets not forget the obligatory pulling on its toes...lol) he gets a little upset when someone holds her that he doesn't think should be. And always makes sure we don't forget her when were leaving.
 Hand-knit goodness from her Auntie seriously gorgeous.
So here is a pre-Isabella custom order that never got blogged....

In a country/chicken theme. 
 It was made for a Artisan Mixer- which is why it's looking a bit short while being modeled by mine.
I don't know if you can see but the black hexies are actually a chicken wire fabric.

Happy Birthday to me - To you! AKA the Stand Mixer Cover Tutorial

***Have you made a cover from this tutorial? Please take the time to leave a comment or upload a photo to our flickr group we would love to see it!!!***

Yes that's right FINALLY I have this up for you guys... it only took... years. I was originally planning on putting it up for sale in my etsy shop but I decided that for my birthday I would give it to you all. So please make yourself one or give them away as gifts (just please don't sell them-if you would like to please contact me to purchase the pattern). And for all of you who don't sew there are still a few left in my shop for purchase.
