Hats Hats Hats

Ok I know I am nuts. It started out with just a couple hats, then Chloe wanted me to make another hat for her friend so I told her to give one of hers to the girl and I would make her different colors. Well I then made a green and a blue and Mya a multi color and Tira and Trinity Black. Well Tira said her hat is too tight so I told her I would make her another. She wanted one like Mya. Well there I went with my scraps to make more hats and didn't count right. One multi-color for Chloe, one for Tira, one for Trinity and Mya had one. Hmmmm so I have and extra medium hat. The coat I made for Christi didn't fit, so Chloe got it. So how can a girl have a jacket without a matching hat. I had to make two because, I don't remember which brown I used. So Chloe has two brown and white hats too. I am so done with these hats. I think I will hide the pattern from myself. This way I will not even think of making more hats. Hee hee hahah

Hats Hats and more Hats

Here is Chloe in the hat I made her.
It always seems like I go overboard when I make things for the kids. Like the purses and the dresses with everything to match. Well Chloe's friend wanted a hat like hers. Chloe had one that was a bit big for her. I told her to give her that one and I would make another out of a different color. She picked blue first then green. So I made her one of each. Then I could not leave Tira out cuz Mya had one from before. So then I didn't want to not leave Trinity out, Jennifer's girl, since Christi and her are close friend. So I made her one. Then I had some fabric I was going to toss so I made Mya another hat. Goofy me!!


Here are some more. Guess who the mixed color one is for?? Give up?? Mya!!












Here are the linings I used.

Some Embroidery

These are embroideries I bought but the NFL takes forever to do and also a lot of thread.












This one did not turn out good, you can see between the yellow and the white the black. Well that should have been full of white. But it did not do it. I am e-mailing the people I got it from.
















This one I really wanted and was hoping the Ravens would go all the way. But they did make it this far and that is good too. They should be proud either way, though their fans would not agree with me.

Christi's jacket


I made this jacket for Christi. I had a bit of a hard time as I usually do with a new pattern. But I got it done. I have not sewn the buttons on yet, they are just pinned. Not sure if I want them there or not. It didn't call for any. It calls for snaps to hold the jacket shut. I will have to get some and then sew them on the inside. The jacket looks much much better than the pic.

I made this Bible Cover for my daughter. It turned out pretty good. It of course has some things I could have done better but it is only my second one. The other was done in August.










Here is the inside of the Bible Cover.
