Busy busy busy

Okay, so I should have been trying to tidy up the house because they're coming (already have come and are in the process) to fix the ceiling in the laundry room today***, but instead I decided to take advantage of the SUNSHINE! We had a small photo shoot. Here's a sample of what we came up with.


My hand crocheted Easter bonnet listed here.

I thought it would be nice to include some of my favorite shops in my blog too. I'll start with deusprovidebit! My absolute favorite shop. :) Okay, so it's my mom's shop. So! I know she makes beautiful QUALITY things. How do I know? Anything that can stand the test of time in MY house with MY kids... it's gotta be good. Gramma Harv (as she's known around these parts) loves to knit, but has run out of heads (even with 25 grandchildren and several *adopted* ones) to put all of her hats on.... She'd love to make one for you!

Here's her youngest grandchild modeling a sample of Gramma Harv's Easter bonnet. The one listed is a slight different color, but just as beautiful! And what could be better than a matching cocoon??? This baby LIVES in her cocoon! Seriously!

And one last picture thought....



Have a nice day :P






***the washer upstairs so kindly leaked into our house

i've been sadly neglecting my blog and sewing machine, but i'm going to make an effort to change that. the newest little muchkin (now almost 7 weeks old) has had a drastic change in schedule as of late. we went from sleeping all the time (thank you for the nice recovery period) to "i like to sleep a lot in the day and fairly well in the important sleep hours for mom (the wee hours of the morning), BUT i like to stay up until.... oh... about 1 am or so" mode. guess that gives me more blogging time, right?
i'm not sure how much sewing time that'll give me, but i should be able to get in some crocheting time...
don't forget to check out my crocheted easter hats. perfect for your spring photo shoot! :)
i hate to type and run leaving this post photoless, but....
shhh......
she's sleeping!
