Feeling Crafty

Due to overwhelming demand (if there are two of you who have seen my blog and one of you requests something, I can call it 'overwhelming demand', right?), I have taken a few pictures to share of things I have made lately!


  • First of all, I have been obsessively making Boppy slipcovers for a while now. I am so lucky to have come across a couple of people with "naked Boppys" so my personal collection of the covers has narrowed! Here are a few of my favorites:





  • I have also been experimenting with sewing burp cloths. These actually have batting in them, so if Miles is like Quinn was, these will definitely come in handy.

  • For my niece and for Quinn I am starting to make 'felt food' for Christmas presents. Here is a very small sampling of what I have done so far (I have no idea where the rest of it has ended up!). This is a piece of bacon and part of a hamburger:

  • My super-crafty cousin was sweet enough to let me in on the secret of making tile-art. Like everything else, I have taken this on as a new obsession! Here are a couple that I have finished and a couple more that are in the process. The Curious George one is made from the dust jacket of one of Quinn's books; I am also working on 'Brown Bear, Brown Bear' and 'The Giving Tree' from his book jackets!

  • And let's not forget the most exhausting work-in-progress of them all:

30 weeks pregnant

(I am surprised by how difficult it was to take a picture of my own belly!)

your tile pix turned out so good! Did you find the stuff online or did you have to go to Layton to get it like i had to?

I might try doing actual pictures of us! I will let you know how that goes and if you have already tried it tell me how it went for you!

I am really loving you having a blog.

I found a couple of places that I could order things to do tile pictures online, but it ended up being a lot cheaper to make the drive!

I am planning to do one of our Wedding day, but I need to get more boards first. So, if you beat me to it let me know how it works out! Also I am going to try making one of Quinn's artwork! That should be fun!
