I made this fun birthday banner for my boys at the beginning of this year. I love how it turned out but it took a really, really long time to make it.

This is probably my most favorite of all the hats I've made. Partially because of the adorable style, but also because of the amazingly soft yarn I used.

Ugh, don't look too close, the stitching on this wallet is terrible. I made this wallet for my daughter, Makyla last year for Christmas & just realized that I never blogged it. It was a different pattern that I had never used before & was a little difficult to stitch through the vinyl. It turned out pretty good, other than my terrible stitching. She started jr. high this year & has decided that she wants one of the larger wallets that I usually make instead of this little one.
This would be the perfect style of wallet to make for my boys. Hmm, I see a Christmas idea forming!

My dear friend, Lisa asked me to make a few aprons for her. This first one was a little different. She wanted it made out of laminated cotton, so it would be waterproof. This is a special apron she wears while she gives her sweet little dog Bella, a bath.

I finished making Cammi's homecoming dress at 1am the same morning that I was leaving for Alberta. There's nothing like waiting until the last minute to get something done. Homecoming was the week that I was gone to Canada for my good friend's wedding. Cammi went with a few of her friends, since a guy didn't ask her. She had a blast, but I was very sad that I wasn't here to see her off that night.I used the Simplicity #2442 pattern found here. I did add the dickey in to make it modest.
Can you see the zebra print under the lace? Cammi loves zebra prints & had to incorporate that in there somewhere.
She wore the dress to church today so I had my chance to snap a few pictures of the dress. My daughter, Miranda did her hair & tried to duplicate it for church today so I could get some photos of that as well (per a request from a friend).
This last one reminds me of how my mom used to curl my hair for special occasions when I was really little...little pincurls!

This is my new bag. I started out using this pattern, but then decided that I wanted my bag to be cute on the outside, not just useful. So I put all the pockets on the inside (still making it useful) & created the ruffle on the outside (making it cute).
I added these little accent tabs by the straps & I love how they turned out. I thought about adding buttons in the center of the little tabs, but I decided they may look weird because they are not square, but more rectangle.
I love the unfinished ruffle across the front. And I absolutely love the printed fabric. It has cities from all over the world on it, including the little town I live in!!!
And there are all the awesome pockets inside. The one where my wallet is was one large one, but I decided it would be more useful as two smaller ones, so I stitched in between to make two.
This top shallow zipper pocket is my favorite. I love that it is shallow & long so I can put my pens/pencils in there & I can find them very quickly and easily.
I keep my gum & lip balm in this small pocket.
And my business cards & my son's inhaler in this pocket that has a flap. The flap isn't really necessary on the inside of the bag and if I were to make this one again I would probably omit this.
There's my wallet in the right pocket and in the other one I put my sunglass case and a few other items that fit perfectly in there.
And there's the back. Not very pretty, but I just wanted to show that it is plain...nothing fancy there. You can tell I've already been using it a lot!
