My sister, Julie, turned the big 40 this year. (It's not that old, Julie!) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These coasters were part of my gift for her. I didn't design them, but I made them into three colored coasters, as opposed to the two shown in the pattern. Julie loves the color blue, so most of what I make her has navy, light blue, and white in it. I like the colors as well, because they remind me of the ocean... My favorite place! </div>

This is how I sent them to her. I just love that little ribbon. Julie enjoyed them, as I had hoped. :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In fact, my mom liked them so well, she requested her own set. I'm so glad I have people to make things for, who love and enjoy them! Thanks, ladies! :)</div>

This is a scarf that I designed and made for my friend, Jenny. She has a bright, sweet and fun personality, so I wanted the color scheme to sort of reflect the California beach.</div>

I have never done tasseled ends before, and I think they turned out really nice and fun! I also threaded grey yarn through the entire design, to add a simple, yet effective design element. </div>

This is how I gave it to her. It was supposed to be a birthday gift, which was in December, but I only finished it in Mid March. Jenny didn't seem to mind, thankfully, and the colors of the scarf lend itself nicely to cold Spring days. :)</div>

I had the fun idea to make leaf coasters for my friend Melanie's birthday. I couldn't find a pattern I liked, so I made one up. It was the first time I have ever written out a pattern that I made. I wanted them to all be uniform, which is what prompted me to do it. This is Melanie's set. They were such a success, that I am now making them for just about everyone I know. :)</div>

I have not yet sent the ponchos to the girls, who live in West Virginia (I am in Oregon). I am going to any day, however. Fall is upon us, and it is the perfect time to wear a snugly poncho!</div>

This is a close up comparison of Macy's (left) and Millie's (right) ponchos. I used the exact same colors but for two. I replaced the white that I used on Millie's with hot pink for Macy. The girls are close in age, and I wanted them to match. :)</div>

I'm making ponchos for my sister's daughters. I have three in mind for Julie's girls, and one in mind for Joy's daughter Macy. They are not done, but it has been really fun making the one I have started, shown below. I think the color schemes are fun as well, which is why I wanted to do this post. I don't have Macy's yarn picked out yet... I will have a full post with the completed ponchos next month, most likely. Enjoy!</div>

A friend of mine, her sister recently had a baby quite early. She weighs less than two pounds I'm told, and is fighting hard. My friend wanted to get her a dress, and was having trouble finding one. I offered to help her out, and this is what I came up with. I designed it myself, I think it's pretty darling.</div>

I thought the pink and white would be nice little accents. The buttons turned out very cute. :) I will be making a blanket to go along with it, and I'm thinking some bloomers as well. I'll post more photos as I have them.</div>

I made this blanket for Autumn, my friend Alisa's darling daughter. I started it when she was born in January 2014. So she just turned a year, and my procrastinating self finally pulled it together and finished this beauty up. After all, I didn't want Autumn to be in High School by the time it was done... </div>

Once I was done with the blocks, it must have taken me five or more hours just to figure out what order I wanted them to go in. It drove me nuts, because nothing felt like the flow was totally perfect. I like what I ended up with, but might have planned it slightly differently had I the foresight of the block placement problem I had. </div>

This is the book that I used for square patterns. I used my own color scheme, of course. I picked 10 squares, and made two of each, in a different color scheme from the other. So, there are 20 blocks in total, and it's a little bigger than crib size. Altogether, it took between 90 and 100 hours to complete.</div>

I really love how it turned out! I left slits in the cuffs on purpose, and think they turned out quite nice. I also did the blue around the edges and neck of the sweater myself. I liked my own way of doing it just slightly better.</div>

I quite like the texture of this stitch. I've seen it called Citrus Peal in other places. It's a simple pattern of double stitch, single stitch, double, single, etc... Then in the next row, you do a double in every single stitch, and a single in every double. </div>

Hello!!!<br />
<br />
I have much more to show you very soon... Until then, I just came across this photo of some wash rags I made my Aunt Peggy last year. Hope your new year is very blessed!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13596404258675011332noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904799824830882164.post-29884453918372145792014-12-22T16:32:00.000-08:002015-01-09T15:30:07.964-08:00That One Sweater I Made...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ok, I have already posted about this sweater that I made for my niece, Macy, but I took these photos off of my Mom's blog so that I could show anyone else who happens to be interested, some more detail. I designed this myself, when I was really just getting into crochet. There are some things I would improve upon, certainly, but over all, I just LOVE this sweater! It's Alpaca and Sheep's wool. </div>

Teri, a lady at work, commissioned me to make a baby hat with a baseball theme for her son, and his wife, who recently found out they are expecting. She is a softball player, and he a baseball player, and it's how they met, so Teri really wanted to give them a little something for Christmas to let them know how excited she is for them. I took the challenge, and had a lot of fun with this! I found a picture of a similar hat, and then recreated it using my own pattern. I wish I had better pictures, but this will have to do until the baby is born. I hope you enjoy!</div>

Here's the truth: I was making these for me, because I liked how my friend Melanie's turned out so well. I was overzealous, and they ended up being much too large for me. My friend Vonda, who was here visiting from abroad, was over so I could show her my crochet chaos in my apartment, and I came across these... They fit her perfectly, and I am SO glad they didn't go to waste! I like them better for her than for me, anyway. It must have been meant to be! :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I designed these myself, and had a lot of fun with them. I had no idea if they would turn out, but I was VERY pleased with the result. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I was really unsure about the seam up the middle as part of the creative design choice, which could be worn on top or on bottom, but I think it's really cute. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Having the differing colors on the top and bottom was also a bit of a risk, but Melanie really liked that I did it that way, so all is well. </div>

Sorry it has taken so long! I am right in the middle of multiple projects, but I have finally completed one of them... :) At the craft store I work at, which shall remain nameless, but let's just say it's really similar to my own name, they told us that we can make our own work aprons, as long as it is made from materials found in the store. I went a little crochet crazy with my Halloween themed Utility Apron. I hope you enjoy!<br />

I'm not 100% in love with how the pumpkin turned out, but I love the candy corn!

I am working at a fabric store, and I don't know how to sew. It's a bit depressing really, so I intend to rectify that, starting with a rag-quilt project to become familiar with my mom's sewing machine. The first one will be for me, since it is an experiment. If it turns out well, I think more rag-quilts will be nice gifts for family members, but with themes to suit each person. I picked a Halloween theme because my birthday is the day before, and no matter how I try to shake my childlike enthusiasm for the holiday, it stands firm at first place in my heart. </div>

I had a total blast picking out Halloween fabrics. There's just something about raw materials that scream "possibilities" to me. I love having a vision or idea in my mind of something, and then actually creating it! I know I have only shown works in progress to this point, but rest assured, the completed works will show up soon! <br />
