Ruffled Terry Hat


I made a hat for a friend of mine who is expecting any day now. This is the same as my other terry yarn hats, but with the ruffle edge like I did on an earlier hat (link). It is not quite as visible in the picture, but in person I think it looks really nice.

Lapghan

I made this lapghan for my mother. It measures 55"x38". It is made with a main color described as a soft, elegant, cool beige. The border and top were made with the same type of yarn in a variegated yarn with subdued tones of camel, cream and medium gray.

Blanket and Pillow Set

I have made several blankets/ quilts over the past few years for the kids in my family. Sometime I also make matching pillows or pillowcases. I have a few pictures of these that I will add.

This quilt and pillow was made with two Spider-man flannel fabrics.

Weddings

I was involved in the planning of two weddings a couple of years ago. Along with a friend we put together the decorations and food for these events. I thought I would add pictures of some of the projects we did. This is the last wedding. It was close to Christmas and we did the theme to match the season.

Terry Hat

I had another friend to have a baby, so I made another terry hat. This is a blue terry yarn and the circumference is 13 inches, but will stretch some. I hope that this will not be too small for him.

Rag Dolls

I was inspired after a trip to a local museum's homecoming where I saw some ladies making rag dolls. I bought one for my little girl and my son also wanted to buy one for her, too. I watched as they made them and I decided to make one for a little girl I know for a Christmas present. So my sons and I went out and we picked fabric that matched a dress of hers. So I made her a doll that had clothes that matched her own clothing. The one on the left is the one I bought. The one on the right is the one I made.
