Hibernation

As you may have noticed, I haven't been blogging much. 

I have a good excuse.

Well, three good excuses.

It turns out, life is a lot busier with three kids. 

That doesn't mean I haven't been a crafty mama, 

just that I have been a less-craftier-than-normal mama. 

I did manage quite a few homemade Christmas 

gifts, almost none of which I photographed. 

I sewed new stockings for everyone.

I sewed two hobo bags out of corduroy, 

complete with magnetic snap closures. 

I knit a bracelet with wire and beads.

More recently, I started a spring dress for the baby 

(hopefully to be completed for her dedication in April).

I received an awesome gift of a NookColor, 

and I sewed a little pouch for it.

I am also working on some projects for photographers, 

including a woven baby hammock and newborn twin 

teddy bear hats. (pics of those coming soon)

I am also working on my four year old's quilt, 

which I decided would be with double hourglass squares.

She decided it should be purple.

Also in the works is a tutorial (!!!) for a baby bonnet

I have been making. The first two prototypes were awful, 

but I think I have it now. Stay tuned.

All this to say, I am back into the bloggy world of crafting. 

Thanks for reading and I will post again soon.
