A New Wallet

Posted on 19. Jan, 2012 by Trish.

I really need a new wallet as mine is falling apart.  I’ve had this giant thing for about 5 years now and I know I need something else.  I’ve been looking at tutorials online and decided I just need to jump in and make one to get the idea of how it’s done.  So here [...]

Crocheted Football Baby Hat

Posted on 09. Jan, 2012 by Trish.

I had a friend ask if anyone knew how to make a baby hat that looks like a football.  It looked easy enough to me, so I tried it and this is what I came up with.

Super duper easy to do!  Maybe if I get brave I’ll try to write down the pattern for this. [...]

Crocheted Baby Converse

Posted on 02. Jan, 2012 by Trish.

I recently went to a baby shower for one of my husband’s cousins, and wanted something fun to give.  I made another owl hat like these, but thought that wasn’t quite enough.
So I turned to ravelry and started looking at free baby boy shoes and came across these awesome crocheted Converse shoes.  I’d never made [...]

Posted on 26. Dec, 2011 by Trish.

I finally sewed together all the pages I got in the quiet book swap and put them together for a Christmas gift for my kids.  I was going to sew up a few more pages of specific activities I wanted, but I didn’t get a change.  I figured I can always add more pages and [...]

Another Rag Quilt

I finally finished the rag quilt for my daughter.  I have had the fabric for over a year, and have had it cut out since last winter.  I decided that it would be the perfect gift for Christmas for her, especially she did ask for a quilt once, although she said she wanted her grandma [...]

My Latest Soap

Posted on 12. Dec, 2011 by Trish.

I haven’t soaped in a while, but I knew I wanted to get some batches for Christmas done, so here are the latest loafs I did a few weeks back.

This one is a mint chocolate.  The brown lightened up a lot more than I was expecting, so it’s not as chocolate as I had hoped. [...]

Batman Diapers

Posted on 24. Sep, 2011 by Trish.

My husband is a big comic book fan, so I decided to make our son some Batman diapers.  (You know, in the hope that he will like the diapers so much he will actually want to change them!)    In all honesty, he does change quite a few diapers around here, but I figured [...]
