Craft Fair weekend!

 What a strange weather weekend it was!   I rained most of the first day, then we had to tie down tightly for day two as 15-20 mph winds were predicted.

Here's some shop photos, enjoy!

It's almost craft fair day!


Taggie blankets, a short stack of quilts and a surprise monster all lined up and prepped for heading to the Armstrong Valley Craft Fair!

Yesterday I made...


...some paintings with my 3 year old.



Plus finished up the quilting and binding on 2 kid sized quilts.  Photos of those coming soon.

Yesterday, I made a little league baseball field....

...much more colorful.



I've spent the last 4 years here with several more on the horizon and I just couldn't look at the back of that dugout wall anymore!  It needed a splash of color and it definitely got it.   So did my shoes, and my arms, and some in my hair.

St Patrick's Day Snowflakes

While the snowflakes were falling outside and 2 of 3 kids were recovering from the stomach-thing that is going around, the middle Boy and I needed a quiet project to entertain ourselves.

These snowflakes were such a big hit that Olive came out to work on them for a little bit as well.

Coffee filters and scissors are all that we needed.


I already had a warm iron so after folding the filters into halves several times, I pressed them lightly to keep them flat.  That made it much easier for the 3 year old to hold. 

 

 After they were cut and unfolded I pressed them with the barely warm iron again.  




The snow is very pretty (but I am so over it now).  Bring on Spring!

baby quilts again


Working on a few baby quilt gifts this month since we have 7 new babies due in our school district and a few in my family as well!

The small sizes give me a chance to play around a bit more and try new techniques without taking up too much of my free time. 

This one was a "special request" by the dad-to-be, he asked for our school colors so maroon and gold it is.
