oh so crafty

So I made two skirts yesterday. I love the fabric, puts me in a fall mood!

I am also working on a teddy bear (crochet) with some fabric accents. I think I am going to use some of the left over plaid. Should be cute!

Have some fun today!

Crafty Lately

So lately I have been crafting, crochet, and sewing lately. A few bits of baking.  I thought I would share the plushes I have been having so much fun making.

My little monsters-my original patterns

 Now with flash to really see the colors

I made this hat on the fly,

I have showed off the dresses I have done. Right now I am thinking about picking up a nice plaid fabric to make a cute fall skirt.
I need to add the buttons, and then I will be done with my sister's present. I have started working on a shawl for my aunt. I have also been working on a pattern in my head, for a driver's cap (crochet). I am hoping to work up a pattern for the driver's cap soon. I have seen a couple of patterns, but not many.


Have some fun today!

Trees are turning, and so is my hair!

I love being a red head! It just felt right to dye my hair red again. I was a red head for most of high school. Any colors you like to dye your hair?

glasses

I have lately been obsessed with glasses. Not just any glasses, cat eye glasses. I don't really need glasses, but I want a pair. Lately I have been wearing some hobby glasses, +1.00, they help stop the headaches when I crochet. I just want to find some cat eye frames. I think I would look soooooo cute! I see a lot of the thick framed "nerd" glasses.

Well I am off to spend the day with my grandparents, and my younger brother. I should try to go thrift shopping, for some glasses!! I so don't need.

Have some fun today!

Fall

So the official first day of fall is this Wednesday. It has been feeling like fall, which is OK with me. The leaves are starting to turn and it is so pretty! The Fryeburg fair is in a couple of weeks. I can't wait! One of my favorite parts is checking out to fiber barn. The center table is filled it wool! I haven't worked with wool yet, just haven't bought any yet. I also want to try felting.
I finished my cute cupcake apron, and made some yummy red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. I brought some to work, and they went over very well. Yay!
I nearly have my sister's Christmas gift done.
I finally got a picture of me in the dress I made, it doesn't look so weird on me as it does on the hanger.

Now I am off to find some hot apple cider! Oh and go to work.
Have some fun today!

What's Blooming at work!

So the final installment of what's blooming at work, for this season. Next week is my last week of the season, I need to get busy figuring out what I am going to do for the next five months.


Well it's that time of year so mums are blooming at work!

Of course we also have pumpkins! Can't wait to pick out one. I don't know what I am going to carve this year, but it will be fun!

What I am listening to

So September is definitely here. Lately all I really listen to, on my way to work is Creedence Clearwater Revival or CCR. I have the Chronicle Vol. 1 album, so I got all my favorites. Bad moon rising, Down on the corner, Fortunate son, Who'll stop the rain, Lookin' out my back door, Lodi, etc.
