Bonjour! Just 12 weeks old and already a budding artist! Yes, I did subject my little guy to dress up like a Frenchman but with good reason! I should mention that the hat can also be worn by our canine friends as well...My daughter's school is putting on a play about art and their mascot needed a costume too. My little guy was just helping his MA with sizing--I just got a little carried away with the photo shoot! Bottom line: berets are cute on babies and dogs!
Use your small plate or bowl as a circle pattern to cut out the felt(remember the beret will turn under so the plate should be bigger than the desired hat size).
1- Use a running stitch to gather the felt completely around the circle
2- Felt should create a "mushroom"--tie off thread. Sew on elastic for chin strap (not too tight!)
3- Cut out a small piece of felt for top of hat
4- Secure to hat with a stich in the middle
Place on your frenchman/dog and admire their cuteness! This would make an adorable Halloween costume as well. What have you dressed your baby (human or canine) up as? I'd love to hear :)

finally getting around to posting the rehearsal dinner party that we hosted (WE=my most creative family!)

It's Bunny season! I managed to sneak in a quick project while my (nearly) 7 week old was napping (I know...I'm supposed to sleep then too, right?!) But I had an itch to create and thought these Boo Boo Bunnies would be a perfect addition to your little one's Easter Basket :) After completed add an optional small reusable ice cube in the back to place on a "boo boo"...it really does help the healing process ;) Now let's get started!

So it seems like I have a fondness for candy pouches and sewing paper here lately! I made these little guys while
patiently waiting the arrival of our little guy:) I wanted to give something to our AMAZING nurses and doctor--as well as a little something for friends and family who came to visit us at the hospital.

Can you believe it?!!! He is FINALLY here!!! Born on 2-10-12 at 9:52 pm--a healthy 9lbs 6 ounces and 21.5 inches!!! We couldn't be happier to have Baby E here in our arms :) I don't like to say it was a difficult pregnancy...but there certainly were many obstacles that came along the way. Babies are miracles and Baby E is truly proof of that!

Tomorrow is Mardi Gras!!! I have been wanting to make a less ambitious version of a King Cake for some time now. It had to be quick and easy considering I have a toddler and newborn at home...so here's what I came up with: Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls and Mardi Gras colored sugar sprinkles (that's it!)
