Super Why

Mike wanted to be Super Why for Halloween. If you have no idea who Super Why is (and apparently most people don't), he is a super hero with the power to read on a PBS cartoon. So Mike and I made his costume. He needed the mask, but we just didn't get around to making it (although it still isn't Halloween, so maybe I'll make it on Monday).

Abby is supposed to be Princess Presto from the same cartoon. I cheated on her costume and just purchased a princess dress, then made the cape.  Most people asked her why a princess would wear a cape.  Oh well. 


I just made Lily a tutu.  I guess that makes her a ballerina.

A Hooded Towel for Easton



I've been wanting to make a hooded towel for Easton for awhile. I had a plain hooded towel when I was little, and remember thinking it was the coolest thing ever. I have a few more ideas that I want to try soon.

Raceway Caddy

Here's the Raceway Caddy I made for Easton using Brooke's pattern. It was pretty easy to make, and it's a very cute idea. Easton helped me finish it up this morning and loves playing with it. Thanks Brooke.

(I'm not sure why the pictures are uploading sideways, but I'm too lazy to mess with it right now.)

Mama's got a brand new bag!!


Finished my new bag. It's big for a purse, but I think that it will work well to hold all of my church things.
My sister Lynne had made one when we visited her in Utah this summer 
and I can't let my sister out do me, can I? 
 Thanks Lynne for the inspiration. Lynne also had some Raggedy Ann Dolls that she was making for her Granddaughters and the cutest little aprons.





This is Lynne's purse, I love the fabric and she did such a great job!
