My childhood friend is expecting her first grandbaby, and her son loves all things Star Wars. I found this pattern, and had to make it. Too cute. I had to use my cinnamon sugar bottle, since I don't have any baby bottles around here..but you get the idea!!!

I love to knit, crochet, and now, thanks to winning a sewing machine, a renewed interest in sewing.

Twinkle is finished!!!
This was a great pattern!!! I found an error, let the creator know, and she fixed it in a flash!!! I have a feeling I will be making another one of these. It needs to be blocked to get the "small hump" out of the middle. I have enough yarn left to make booties and a hat.

Awesome tote bag for a walker
My dear friend asked me to make her a new tote for her walker. I took measurements and pictures of hers, came home, then found some pre-quilted material in my stash. A round of bias tape, a seam up the middle, 4 buttonholes, and 4 buttons later, TA DA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also discovered my sewing machine actually sews on the buttons!!!!! I am in heaven!! So easy, peasy, and she loves blue, so it should work just fine.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star
We're welcoming a baby girl into our family in June. I found this pattern on Ravelry and fell in love!!! It's worked from the middle out, and will be a square blanket...haven't figured that part out yet, but I'll bet it has to do with the short rows on the edging. I'm about 1/3 of the way done, and just love this pattern!! If you look close, you'll see the little stars in the pattern.

Inspiration from big sis
My big sis was here for a couple of days, and so we had to go shop!!! She needed a new crochet hook holder. The one I made her was so admired by her daughter-in-law's mother, she decided to make her one.
We got 2 fat quarters, and folded, re-folded, and figured out how to put it together with the least amount of sewing time. Between us, it worked out pretty well. I had leftover fleece we used for the lining.
I made two larger pockets on the left for scissors, and my 'Q' and 'S' hooks.
Also, on Knit Nite, I started another little owlet, and got it done Friday night!!! This is a gift to my preacher. She loves squishy little cute things!!!

More rings---I'm addicted to them!
Most of you saw the witch doctor rings in person...Well, now I have two more to share with you.
Meet Mike:
The Merry Christmoose Dahling moose:
I am telling you, these take a couple of hours, and are so fun to do. I used pipe cleaners instead of cable needles for the pictures because I was at church and didn't have my cables with me.
If you get a hankering for making rings, go to Ravelry queenofsheeba's page. she has a lot of cute little projects.
