2 Blankets Crochetted

I crochetted (I really can't figure out if that's how you spell it... oh well) 2 blankets in the past couple of weeks. This one was for my sweet new niece, Sukai. The other was for Emma's new baby boy, whenever he arrives. They both looked like this, but Sukai's was yellow, blue and pink. Baby Walker's was white, yellow and blue. It had a lot of fun making them. After finishing them both I felt a little weird without a project, so I've decided to keep making them to donate to a hospital or shelter. They're the perfect size for a small baby and really warm for Boston winters. It's a little way I can continue to give to those around me AND continue my "therapy." Crochetting is good for my soul and mind, like yoga but on the couch.

Michael modeled Sukai's blanket: This is how Sukai feels when using it:
What a wonderful husband!

Holiday Bows


I thought I would post a picture of Lady C with the little bow I made her. I made the headband with my new sewing machine (thanks mom!) and made the bow with the help of our quarterly enrichment meeting. This is one of the pics in our Christmas card. Isn't she cute!

I'm finally catching up on everything I need to do for Christmas. I don't know how mom does it.

Christmas Bow

I made my first hairbow last night. Since we were given so many hairbows, I didn't have to make any until now, for Christmas. My first attempt was an overload of the senses (too many patterns of ribbon in bright colored green), but it was corrected in the end. I'll post pictures once Lily wears it!
