#23 Part 3





I made this project for the Nursery. We decided to do a Safari theme with the main animal being hippos. The pattern for this was for a sock monkey theme, but I changed it a little bit and came up with a hippo applique. It's cute, soft and cozy. I like it.

#18 Part 7


This pattern was for a big hat using big yarn. I used some Simply Soft Quick. It's really thick yarn, but the hat turned out really small. I don't really like it. Oh well.

#23 Part 2



I made this blanket and matching hat for Tony and LeAnn's baby shower. It turned out great and very soft! I'm using the same yarn for the project I'm working on for our baby.

Today was beautiful, so I decided to clean out the car! It looks great and I found some stuff. I found 3 different kinds of lip balm and my favorite pair of sunglasses! The only thing left is to vacuum, but I think they'll do that for me next time I take it to get the oil changed. Yay clean car!!!

#57 & #59 April 2009

Lars and I both had a free afternoon so we went to the Cottage on Broad Street for lunch. He won a gift card in a disc golf tournament last year, so we used that. It was great food, as usual, and quite fun. 

Kaia and I went to see the Hannah Montana movie. It was the first showing on the first day. The movie theatre was very understaffed. There was a huge line at concessions, but we really needed pop corn, so we waited the 20 minutes it took to get through the line. The movie needed more Jackson, and less Hannah singing. That's all I will say about it. :-)

#6 Part 2

Today I read Asylum by Jerome McDonough. It was... interesting. I think I'd have to watch it in order to understand what was going on. But that might not help. Weird play. Thanks Catie...

#84

By searching through my house, accepting donations from friends, and making one myself, I have now acquired several reusable shopping bags! I'm ready to go green! Now if I can just remember to bring them with me and use them...

#23 Part 1


This is the "Fashion First Aid" bag from "Stitch 'n Bitch Crochet: The Happy Hooker". I got the front done and Lars asked why I was making a Swiss flag. Now I'm going to try to find some mountain fabric for the lining :-)

#18 Part 6


In an attempt to finish number 18 and get started on number 84, I made this lovely reusable shopping bag. The bottom is reinforced with a CD, hopefully it will work out!
