Winter hat for my adorable niece Catherine

My friend Michelle sent me this pattern for this cute little hat. She had made it for a friend of ours who just had a little girl. I thought it was so cute. I had to make one for my beautiful niece Catherine, and make it in yellow since that is her Mommy's favorite color. I thought it came out so cute. I love the way it looks on her. Just adorable. I hope they get some use out of it this winter.

Accessories for one of my blankets

So, I posted a while back that my Mom had started this blanket a few years ago then got very sick with Cancer. She ended up passing away before she could finish this blanket for me and it took me almost a year, but I managed to pick up where she left off and finish this project. When I was finished I noticed I had 2 squares left over. I held onto them for a long time not sure what to do with them. Then I thought a matching pillow would look really cool with the blanket. So I did just that. I think it came out awesome. I love looking at these items, they remind me of my Mom each time I see them.

Blanket for little Dylan

I made this blanket for one of my closest friends. Karen and I have known each other our whole lives. We have had so many simalar things happen in our lives...we got engaged a month apart from each other and had our weddings the same year. I was so excited when Karen told me she was expecting so I had to make her something special for her new baby. Dylan arrived at the end of Sept on my late fathers birthday. I was so happy to give her this beautiful blanket. She was sweet enough to send me a picture of Dylan all cozy in this blanket. Im so glad she likes it and that they are getting some use out of it.
