Handprint Creation

Since our daughter has decided to make monthly projects with our boys' handprints and/or footprints, I decided it was time to buy a frame to properly display their artwork. I printed out the poem, cut it so that it could go above and below their work, and then will change the center to denote the season. I'm looking forward to their next project and will update and post accordingly! Thanks for letting me share this with you!

Birthday Balloon Wreath

 

Since some very special birthdays are coming soon, I thought this would be the pefect wreath for our almost 2 year old identical twin grandsons! Our daughter has chosen to hang it inside on the door of the birthday person (s) for their entire birthday month - in anticipation of the big day! I'm so glad I could be a part of their new family tradition!

For a Very Special Baby Girl

The set is finally finished - in time for the arrival of a dear friend's newest granddaughter, due to arrive later this month! It's a very light pink, with pink ribbon roses for decorations on the hat, booties, headband, and sweater. Hope the mommy-to-be likes it! It was fun to make all these great pieces! Check back tomorrow for another addition to the collection!

The needles have been clicking!

To take a break from packing this weekend, my knitting needles have been clicking with my latest project. My dear friend sent me this Fancy Fur yarn and this is what I created for her - a scarf and matching hat. Sure hope she likes it!

Mother Bear Project

This is the first bear I've made for the Mother Bear Project, but I hope to make lots more! Friends at the Needlecrafters Ministry were making them and they shared the pattern with me. Mother Bear Project is a non-profit group dedicated to providing comfort and hope to children, primarily those infected or affected by HIV/AIDS in emerging nations. Visit the project website:  http://www.motherbearproject.org/ for more information.

Some Knitting Projects

Hello, Friends, I know it's been a long time but so much has happened since I last posted! I won't bore you with all the details but suffice it to say that a LOT has happened! We are now in San Diego - yes, as in clear across the country from Florida - and I have survived yet another surgery! Praise God! We have plugged into one terrific church - Shadow Mountain Community Church - and I have become a part of the Needlecrafters Ministry! What a wonderful group of new friends! I have been knitting like crazy to create these adorable little hats and booties for baskets that are given to families in the church who have new babies as well as the premies at a local hospital! Take a look at my creations and keep watching for more posts in the near future!
