Something I’ve been doing lately is sewing. I used to have a good sewing machine, prior to our move to California. But, in our efforts to save precious packing space in the SUV, I sold it. And sold all my thread, fabric, cutting mat, rotary cutter, and all mask-making materials. You know those masks… everyone […]

Crochet Produce 2018
I started making this on a whim. A friend saw them, and asked if I would sell the set of fruits and veggies. She was looking for cute, soft toys for her toddler grandson for Christmas, and she fell in love with these. I don’t usually sell items I make, mostly because no one really […]
Unicorn Earflap Hats 2017
These are three unicorn hats I was commissioned to make. The pattern is a paid pattern, found at BriAbby.com. Although they each used 100% acrylic yarn, there was a variety of brands I had on hand, so I used up what I could. In addition to what is listed below, I also used small amounts […]
Creeper Beanies
These are two beanies I made with the Minecraft® Creeper theme. I cannot recall where I found the pattern, but I do recall that I ended up modifying the pattern I started with. I just could not make sense of the original pattern. Both were made with Red Heart Super Saver worsted weight yarn. The […]
Soulmates 2009
These are felted clog-style slippers I made from a paid pattern from Fiber Trends. Actually, there are two patterns… Adult sizes and child sizes. I wish I could find my pattern pamphlets because I would SOOOO make these again! One pair that I made I rubberized the soles, so I could occasionally go outside with […]
Batman Earflap Hat 2015
So… A Batman hat… Maybe not the most original idea, however it was made for one of my grandsons as a gift this past Christmas. The hat itself is just a basic earflap beanie, with the bat logo stitched to the yellow oval. The oval has white trim around it, and is then stitched to […]
Bigger Little Girl’s Crochet Chevron Dress 2016
This is the larger of the crochet chevron dresses I’ve made. This one should fit a child about 6 or 7 years old. This is from the same pattern as the other dresses in the previous post. (Red Heart). Instead of four different colors, I opted to make this just two alternating colors. Again, I […]
Little Girl’s Crochet Chevron Dress 2016
I made this for one of my granddaughters, but it came out just a bit smaller than I counted on (purple/lavender/pink). But I just love how it turned out! I loved it so much, I made a second one just slightly larger to fit her better (yellow/green/blue). I gave the other dress to someone else […]
Shark Attack Earflap Beanie 2015
My youngest grandson chose this as the hat he wanted. I gave it to him a few months later as a Christmas gift. I’m guessing he loved it, because he wore it all winter! This pattern came from Sarah Zimmerman over at Repeat Crafter Me. I just love her patterns!
SquareBob SpongyPants Earflap Beanie 2015
Yes, I know the title not exactly what the character name is, but this is to prevent infringement of the copyrighted character. This was made for one of my granddaughters as a Christmas gift. She just loves that yellow sponge guy, and I found this pattern on Repeat Crafter Me. I think that is probably […]
Inspirations of Minnie Earflap Beanie 2015
Are you tired of seeing hats yet? LOL Here is another for you! I made all my grandchildren themed hats this past Christmas, and this one was inspired by a certain mouse. I got the basic pattern from Repeat Crafter Me, but I worked the bow just a bit different. The pattern allows you to […]
Penguin Earflap Beanie 2015
I just love this hat! I made this for my 4-year-old granddaughter for Christmas. I think the earflap beanies are just so cute on the little ones! As long as they like them and will wear them, I’ll keep making them! This pattern was found at Repeat Crafter Me, and is fairly easy and quick […]
