Showcasing my most recent endeavor.....

An embroidered picture!

Based off of a picture of my friend and I on a trip, I made this little pillow/door knob hanger out of felt, embroidery, and magic.

 This Monkey Princess....



Was made for this Monkey Princess....

I love making custom stuffed toys, so when my friend asked me to make a "Monkey Princess" doll for her daughter who goes by that nickname, I was very excited. It took my only a week to complete and I am so pleased with the result! I think it might be one of the cutest things I have ever made. This like all of my projects is my own pattern and I think I got the proportions just right. I also really like the look of firmly stuffed, tight single crochet in cotton. It gives it a very smooth, round, look that I am in love with. The face is wool felt and the tiara is some sparkley thread. She even has little pink socks that stay on her feet just like the real Monkey Princess!

The Pounding

Sounds like some kind of scary movie doesn't it? Well its not. Not exactly, unless you can't stand loud, repetitive, clashes. Then leave right now, because Mom was having too much fun flattening spoons, forks, and knives on the new anvil she got from Daddy for Mother's Day.

They looked pretty cool when she was finished with them.

On some of them she stamped out herb names such as Basil and Sage, to sell at the upcoming Local Women's Expo.

I have to admit though, we were all very happy when she decided to give her arms a break and come inside again.

Hehe love you Mom <3
