Veggie Tales

My husband recently put a portable DVD player in our daughter's room so that she could watch a movie or show before bedtime. Well, she's now LOVING Veggie Tales. Every night she watches the same episode of Larry Boy before going to bed. I had to make her something that she could play with. I crocheted these 2 guys:

I didn't have a pattern specifically for them but I stole from what I already had. Larry the Cucumber (or Larry Pickle, as my daughter calls him) is from a pattern I had for a ball but instead I added more rows to lengthen it to size. Bob the Tomato is made from a pumpkin that I had already done. I added the eyes, noses and mouths and there you go:


One happy little girl!

V-Day Cupcakes

Valentine's Day cupcakes 2 days early. I saw the pattern for the Owl on Scrapbooks Etc. website.

Lexi helped me to decorate all of the cupcakes with sprinkles, colored sugar and Sweetheart Twilight/New Moon candies.

I hope everyone has a great V-Day!

Baby Stuff

So I'm now into making baby stuff. I'm not expecting or anything but I have friends who are. So lucky me (or lucky them)!! I get to make all kinds of cute tiny clothes and things.

I've just started on booties. I made these from a pattern from Knotty Generation. I love Mary Janes!

I've made 2 pair so far; the lavender in 6 mo. size and a black pair in 3 mo. size. These were totally easy to make and took no time at all.

I've just got to find something else that I want to make. They're not due until May so I have plenty of time.

Well, here's my newest project for the baby. I made a red and white one for my daughter and I thought that my friends would like this version for their daughter.
