Balls, Bears and Quilts

I made this bear a while ago, a first attempt that turned out preety darn cute { I think }. Anyways,
the ball he has is a little something for our Grandson along with this ~

a Rag Quilt but made out of fleece for those chilly cruises in his stroller around Calgary. It is so cozy and warm with two layers and I added some Thomas the Tank Engine cotton from my stash ~

I picked up this flannel for a song on Ebay, just shy of 5 yards for $4.00 s&h included!! I managed to sew up some jammies for my boys, top & bottoms for my little man and bottoms for my big guy!! 

Another Rag Quilt but this one is flannel with a batt filling. I'll be putting it in my shop.

Last but not least is this wip, my Quilt of Valor {please excuse the pic}. This will be ready to go shortly, it just needs a backing and to be quilted. I'll post a better pic when it's all finished.

Have a great day!!

My Spin on "Oopsie"...

A couple of days ago Moda Bake Shop had  Melly and Me   baking up Oopsie the Octopus.
I thought I'd take a shot at it and came up with "Ozzy"  {above}, I stuffed her with fabric scraps {go green} that were headed for the garbage. She's heavy enough to hold open a door and my kids get a kick out of her
felt eyelashes.

Can You Spot The Rotty's Nose? and Other Things Too

While hubby was away working  with this, he had the camera and forgot to bring it home for 3 weeks! Grrr!!!
Consequently I've not been able to post anything new until today!

Let's see...where to start?

I won this bundle of goodies from Betwixt the Betweens! Thank you Michele! Thank you for the extra goodies, my boys say, " you rock!!"

I bought these 1/2 yards a couple of weeks ago and they also arrived today!  Rag Quilts are in my future!

Now alot of you have heard of Judith's "Early Bird Christmas Craft" event, right? If you haven't click on her button in my sidebar. I wasn't able to post my finishes at the time so here they are...

mini box pouches and just a bit of  nose?!

grocery bags holders

Manicure Travel Wallets

one of my favorites so far, Wristlet Key Chain & Bank/Credit Card Holder

I do not like lugging a purse around all the time and this is perfect for a quick trip to the store !

a felt pincushion and pins that kinda look like snowmen.

and last but not least a small collection of fridge magnets.

So there you have it. WHEW!

I've got more things to post but for now,

I'm good!!

I  made this little lady a couple of weeks ago and forgot to post her then. She's a pseudo-Waldorf doll.  I was experimenting to see how this doll process would work out so I didn't use all natural materials like a true Waldorf.  I was swinging by the seat of my pants and checking out some of the great sights with tutorials for help. I think she turned out pretty good for a first try.

Take a gander at these cuties!!  QUINTUPLETS!!!

Yep 5 count em 5 kiddos. They are the grandchildren of a new friend and neighbor.

I've got my hands full with my 2 dino hunters!

I found this pincushion on my camera from awhile back. I've been slow to show some of these things and my newest projects because Hubby still hasn't brought the camera home from up north. I'll put this pincushion and some pins in with my other goodies for Judith's Early Bird Christmas.

Have a great weekend everyone!

A PEEK

I've got a few additions to my Early Bird Christmas Crafting Gifts {see sidebar} but my Hubby took the camera and all I can give is a peek of one item.

CREATIVE STUDIO CHRISTMAS

I've got a couple of these wonderfully easy travel kits {or just toss it in your purse} made up and they'll be going in my Gift Giving Basket for Christmas.

Have you seen what   Judith  is inspiring us to do?

Why not click on Judith's name up there or click her beautiful button in my sidebar and join in the fun.

There's lots of great ideas and contests and surprises.

I like knowing that this year I'm not getting caught with my pants down...
