More Christmas Trees

Felted Christmas Trees for my mom's Christmas decorating.

A Felted Christmas tree I made last Oct.

 Two more trees ready to be felted.

I will make a few more since I have leftover

yarn.  Hopefully, I will at least be able to 

make two.  The pattern for these knitted trees 

can be found in the 

Interweave Knit Gifts Holiday 2011. 
The before size of the medium tree is 16 in. tall 
and the small tree is 12 in.  I will post the size after
I felt also.  There is a large size, but that one is 
completely done and packed away in my mom's
Christmas decorations.

 A finished pillow I made for my youngest darling daughter.

I thought it turned out quite cute.

I did not make it "perfect" seeing as that it will

probably only last a few years before it is 

ready for the trash.

 This photo showcases a small blanket that I 

made to match  the pillow.

The pattern for this pillow can be found at All People Quilt.

It is called a Hour Glass Pillow.

Tatted Heart Bookmark and misc.

Just some pictures of recently made and finished projects.

I will add links and patterns in a few days.

Crochet Shawl

Finally finished!!!  YEAH!!! 

I started this about 3 months ago and it worked up quickly.

I thought to myself,  this will be done in no time....

Then I set it down and did not pick it up for a couple of weeks.

Anyway,  I am trying hard to finish the projects I have begun.
 This pattern is from Family Circle Easy Crochet Magazine Fall/Winter 2005.
The name of the pattern is Poncho and Cloche pattern #1.

Would this item be worthy to enter into a contest?

What are your thoughts/ides?

These are the makings of a pillow for darling daughter #2.

She like kitties and we found this cute fabric.  Then I went searching for

a simple pattern.  I found it on all people quilt.  I will add the link later.

This is a blackwork cat that I finished in January.

I made it for my daughter mentioned above.

I thought about entering it into the KY State Fair so I had to finish it

and this is how it turned out.  Do you think it is contest worthy?

The below hobby horse is for a baby gift to a friend.

As you can see, I am still in the process of working on the cording.

I found a great blog that explains how to finish ornaments like this.

Pinwheel Ponders.  It is great!!

Finally completely finished!!!

Happy stitching or crafting!!!!

More Unfinished Projects

I have had a special treat this week, my mother has been watching my 3 youngest children.  That is why I have been able to finish some projects.  During this week, I have also made four of these knitted dishcloths.  I gave two away as gifts to friends and the two below, are for my mom.  She likes them.

This is a Barbie Sleepover set I made for my young daughter.  

I am not finished with the sleeping bag yet because if requires some

sewing.  I only used Ken below because he was the only one that 

was adequately dressed.  My youngest daughter likes to take 

all the clothes off of Barbie.  Who knows why?????

Santa Pillow

Santa Pillow

I found this pattern for a Santa Pillow.  The name of the pattern is Santa Pillow by Bernat.  

It was a free pattern at my local Jo-Ann Fabric Craft Store.  My mother collects Santa's.  

I made her one and then my kids start chiming in about wanting one

also.  So I have made another one.  This one is for my youngest son.

It will be a wonderful Christmas decoration in his home someday.

Enjoy the pictures.

He is pretty cute.

Happy Crocheting to you!!!
