Peasent Dress


While looking at gorg peasent dresses for my princess I stumbled upon a blog that mentioned a specific pattern. Low and behold, hidden in my stash is this pattern! Of course it was a 1/2 - 2 pattern so I had to resize it with a pencil and a roll of paper. This was the end result!!!

Craftiness at an All Time low!

I have been woefully uncrafty as of late. Busy with kids, and the unexpected death of my beautiful Grandfather has kept me feeling uncrafty. I do have a couple of projects on the go, a shaggy quilt for my son (bigger project then I first thought!!), a fancy dress for my daughter, a generator cover for my hubby, but it's all at a stand still. I need to work up my oomph for crafting! Hopefully I'll get something new done to show you.

On another note. I completed a knitting project just before Christmas!! It's a Kitty Helmet (like a balaklava with ears) for my son and if I could find it I'd get a picture of it to show you. That's all for now!! BYEEEE!

Hello!!!!!

You crafty internet people!

only 3 days until Santa Day and I am set to jet! Presents bought (check), Baking Done (check), Wrapping of said presents (*clears throat*). I'll admit, I have yet to wrap the presents. I don't like wrapping the presents. I prefer to buy them and distribute them but wrapping them??!!?? UGH!!!!

Oh well, I have 2 more nights to wrap them. I still have plenty of time!

Insert Shrug Here

I have been not particularily Crafty as of late. It's been a busy stream of kids, school, shopping and travel so no time for excessive sitting and Crocheting. I did make 7 sewn hats in the last week and helped my MIL draw out the pattern for said hats and for mittens as well. There are cute little ear flapesk hats that my kids are going nuts over!! So I made one for each kid (well 2 for the boy child) and the others will be included in the gifts for my nephews and other small children in my life.

Sorry no picture yet!

???!!???!?!?!

So I was about 1/2 way done my first for sale dress and now I can't find it!!!! I have no idea where it went and that is very frustrating! It is a very cute watermelony dress (I believe the pattern is one of Crochet Gardens) and it was coming together very nicely. *sigh* I'll have to tear the house apart this weekend and hopefully I'll find it!

Exciting New Idea

I have found that I enjoy making little crochet dresses for the monkey girl and as she doesn't need 18 crocheted dresses I have decided to sell them. I checked online and the patterns I have mention that selling the finished product is fine as long as I give pattern credit to her. Done and done! I'll post pictures of my first for sale baby/toddler dress as soon as I get it made!
