Hat for Chloe


I already made Chloe a hat like this but it was too small. She gave it to Mya. So I made two of these. One is a little bigger than the other. Now I am worried it may be too big. Oh noooooooo!!! But I looked the hat over. Christi can add a piece of elastic on the inner back of the hat. This will make it gather and be a bit smaller. The hat will still look great.
Oh, this is my new model. Hee hee its me!!!

Embroidered hand towel





Here are all the towels folded up. Gives a better look.














Hand towels

I bought some terry cloth and had some of this cotton fabric. So I made bia's and attached it to the terry cloth. Now here are hand towels. I did them two different ways to see which I like better. I personally like the bottom one I think but what is your opinion. Thank you

Rival Scarf

This guy, Pete, that I barely know, who is a friend of Buzzy's, went crabbing during the summer with Buzzy. Well he would give me lots of crabs and in exchange I would make him crab cakes. Believe me, I got the better deal. Anyway he is a fan of both the rival teams in Maryland and DC so I made him a scarf, at his request, with one side Ravens and one side Washington Redskins. I had to use cotton on the Redskins. You can only get the fabric if you order on line now. I was not going through that. I already had the Ravens left over.

Hats for Chloe

Here are some hats I made for Chloe. My model was very good. She kept still and let me put the hat on her without any argument. She was the best model there is. Isn't she pretty.
















This is the same kind of hat but I made the rim white. I used the same model. She was cheap.



















Now this is a different style and was not as easy to make. Being all black you cannot tell how its made but the pic below of the same hat, which is black and the pic turned out gray, well you can see the difference in the style. Like my model again. She is the best.













I had taken this pic before my model came in. Same hat just for some reason pic turned the hat gray.

A coat for one of the girls


I am so proud how this coat turned out. This was made for Tira, I like to start out with her each time because she takes less fabric. Ok the pattern did not call for the hood and cuffs to be contrast. But I thought it would look much better than just all one pattern. I now have to get a pattern to fit the other two. These are not winter coat as they have no liner and are made of fleece. But will be warm enough for the spring. I have plenty of time.

Hats, scarves and more slippers


I made the ones below first because Tira wanted a hat, scarf and gloves cuz Joshua had some. So I decided to make her some. Then I had more fabric left over but not enough to make it like the other one. But it turned out nice I think. The I am a Star, on the hat could have been a bit lower but it looks good.














This is the one I made first. Tira has a pink coat so it will look nice.
















Well here I go again. More slippers. Well being in Maryland is a problem when making the kids stuff to wear. I get the sizes wrong sometimes. These are for Joshua, the ones I made him were to narrow. He has wide feet. But I like these much better anyway. He will love the puppy I embroidered on them.
