Pink Fuzzy Goodness

What could possibly be better for a little girl than elastic waisted, stretchy, fuzzy on the inside, PINK pants with a bow? I just can't quite think of anything :) I hope they fit! There might also be a second pair coming when Miss 2 year old "I like Pink!" sees them.

Recycled Pants

One of my favorite pairs of pajama pants need to be retired. The elastic was shot and the pants just fell to the floor and there was some paint around the cuffs from half a decade ago. The velvet is so very soft though and much of it was still in good condition, so they have now been through the miraculous shrinking machine (a.k.a. my sewing machine) and have become just the right size for a little four year old whose is ever so excited to be wearing what used to be Mama's pants.

Thanks, Martha

This is a set of potholders that I gave as a birthday present for my dearest friend. Completely inspired by a blanket and pillow that Martha made with a two sided heavy felt which made the holes go all the way through and the turned up edges showed off the back side fabric. This is my modification for both function and materials available. The green one is my favorite :)

Belated Christmas Post

I snapped this picture on Christmas morning in complete shock. I'm not completely sure, but I think this might be my first white Christmas! We had a wonderful amount of snow that lasted several days. Great big flakes too. What a fantastic Christmas surprise :)

Run, Squirrel! Run!

This poor little fella ought to have been curled up in his nice warm (well, warmer) burrow. Instead he was kind enough to venture out to give us a cute little show while the snow was falling. Thanks little guy!
