Mobiles!

I just finished making my newest mobile!


Also, here is a picture of the mobile I made a few months ago:


This one was featured on the Crafty Steals "Feature You Friday" blog!

I also have a facebook page for my mobiles and other origami creations, if you'd like to become a fan: Origami Mobiles.

Both the mobiles are for sale for $25 each. Please contact me if you are interested, either through this blog or my email address carlyviolet@hotmail.com

Thanks for reading!

New Hat Style

Here is a new style of baby hat that I made today. I got the pattern here: http://fiberflux.blogspot.com/2011/02/free-pattern.html

the finished hat

hat with added crochet heart

I think I made it a little too tall & not quite wide enough, but I'm sure there will be at least one baby whose head this will fit :)


Next time, I should have a baby mobile done. It's not done yet because apparently I bought the wrong size ribbon... but soon! :)

Crochet Heart & Star!

Yay crochet!

I loved making the flowers, and I wanted to learn more shapes. So I found some videos of how to crochet a star and a heart! Here is what I made:

Crochet Flowers!

Today I learned how to crochet flowers! It was so exciting! Tracy taught me how at the LeeLee Hats  knit club, and then I came right home and made two more! Here they are! :)



For the last one, I used two different yarns; one blue-ish grey and one shiny silver. I like it :)

Now I just need to make a few more hats so I can sew these flowers on! Yay!

Baby hats!

I recently started knitting baby hats with the LeeLee Hats knit club. They are a great group donating hats to NICU babies and you should definitely check them out!

I just finished my fifth hat, so here are pictures of my first five!

my very first knit hat

New Blog

Hi!

I created this blog because I needed a way to submit an entry for a contest (which I will post in the next few days), and I decided I will use it to post pictures of things I make! I probably won't write much because that is not something I enjoy, but I will share pictures of my origami, knitting, cross-stitching, baking, and anything else I create!

I hope you enjoy it!
