*late* Christmas Craft Post

I made superhero capes for my nephews and niece in Hawaii. This was my first time doing them and so were a bit short, but what are you going to do when you live so far away and had never done them before? Anyway, I think that they turned out really well for all of that.

Here they are posing: Izack, Cloe, Gabriel, and Kaleb

these are the four colors that I did them in

Valentine Dress

I wanted this dress to be cute and 'heartsy' for Valentine's Day, but also summery since it should fit Kate in the summer, too. I made the straps extra long and folded them on the inside so that even when she grows a few inches, all that I have to do is let them out and it will fit her for a long time.

Kate's Bibs

I have finally taken the time to finish the full set of bibs that I wanted to make for Kate. Since she is teething and drooling all of the time because of it, she has to wear bibs almost 24/7 to keep her shirt dry, ... so I made cute ones for her to wear.

Nursing Cover

This is the second nursing cover that I've made. The first one ended up being too small. I had looked at the ones on the internet. I didn't feel like shelling out almost $50 for one, especially when I was sure that I could make one.

I didn't think that they needed to be so big, but after altering my first one to be smaller I changed my mind. With Kate grabbing anything and everything, I realized the need for them to be as big as you can find them. 

Bubble Mobile

I made this bubble mobile for Kate's Woodland Fairie room. 

Little Doll

This is the first doll that I've fully finished. I made it for a friend's daughter. I wasn't sure how to do the face and since I was very limited on time, I just used a little bit of black thread and did what I could.
