Teal and gray car seat blanket

I made another car seat blanket this year. It was in the colors that matched the infant car seat the baby would be using.

Diagonal Filet Pink Baby Hat

This is a pink baby hat I made with my favorite terry yarn. It has a diagonal filet pattern around the hat.

Kelly Green Newborn Hat

I was blessed to have a chance to make another hat for another sweet new addition. This time I used a kelly green yarn and did a 3x3 filet square pattern around the hat. He sure makes the hat look awful cute!

Neutral Cocoon Set

This is another cocoon set I made. It is neutral for a couple who decided to wait until birth to learn the sex of their baby. I took pictures with a ribbon and bow to show how it could be used for a girl.

And here is the precious little boy in the cocoon set

Baby Cocoon and Hat

This is a cocoon set that I made out of a blue bouclé yarn.

Bamboo Baby Hat

I made this soft bamboo baby hat in a natural color to match the going home outfit of this sweet new baby.

School Colors

This is a hat that I made for a high school student. He wanted a hat in his school colors to wear for the football games. I let him design the stripes the way he wanted them. I have already had another student ask for one after seeing this one.

Baby Cocoon

I have seen several of these baby cocoons with matching hats used as props for photographers. I thought it was a cute idea and decided to make one for our newest addition in the family. I made it with a boucle yarn which is very soft. It is made in a color called Edwardian which has been used in a few of my other projects.

Stripped Terry Hat

This is a stripped baby hat that is made with

blue, yellow, white and green terry yarn.

Homespun Baby Hat

This is a beautiful little hat that is made from the Homespun bouclé yarn. The color name is carnation (it is a light pink and white mix). This hat measures 14 inches around, which puts it as a newborn - 3 month size hat.

Etsy Store

I wanted to let everyone know that I have now opened an Etsy store! I only have a few items listed so far, but I plan to add more soon. I would love for you to go and take a look! If you see something on this site that you like please e-mail me or convo me through my Etsy store and I will look at adding those items. Also, if you are out of the USA and would like to purchase something let me know. I have currently only setup shipping for inside the USA, but I will add other areas after looking at shipping rates. Here is the link to my store:

Diaper Cake

I just completed a diaper cake for our church. This was made as a gift for one of our extended church family members. It was my first attempt and I believe it turned out quite well. I did not use much decoration since I know that the recipient did not need things like toys, bottles, blankets, etc.

These are the items I used:
Pampers Size 1 diapers
Charger (for base)
3 different ribbons (white satin, blue/yellow plaid, and blue)
Lion snuggle blanket
4 wooden animals (elephant, monkey, lion, & giraffe)
4 pacifiers (2 blue and 2 yellow)
Diaper pins

This is the plain cake before I put on the decorations.

(except for the lion blanket on top)

This is the finished cake.

Boucle Scarf

I made a scarf to match a hat that I had previously made (link). I made it long and slightly narrower to make it easier for the European Loop style. It is a white bloucle style yarn.

Edwardian Hat

I made a hat from the same yarn as I used for the Edwardian Scarf. I crocheted the hat with a half-double crochet stitch.

Ode to Joy

This is a hat that I made for my friend. I just completed it today. It is made from a cream boucle yarn.

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.

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.

Hair Bow Holder

I recently made this hair bow holder. It has a background color of purple lilac with a mix of kelly green and fresh foliage. It also has ladybugs and a bumble bee.

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.
