Camera Bag Strap

Check out this cute camera bag strap cover I made for my work camera bag.

   

 I couldn't really get a good photo of the back, but maybe I'll try to get one. I hate the whole photo-in-the-mirror thing, but that was the best I could do with this one.

   

 I made it with an old sheet and a little hot glue, and my friend Heidi who helped me twist a few flowers. I think it turned out pretty cute. The best part? It was free! Oh, and I'm sorry if the text on this is showing up weird, for some reason the new blogger posting thing is being difficult.

Crochet Creation

I wish I could be more clear about this, but I can't. When it comes to medical names and terms and whatnot all I see is red squiggly lines (the ones you get when something is spelled wrong or incorrect as you're typing). So you'll have to bare with me.

My cousin had a sweet little baby boy. He was born with a liver disease. My cousin was asking for donations for an Art for a Cure fundraiser. I wasn't sure if I could donate crafts but she said I could donate a basket.

Without further adieu, here is my basket. I'm really happy with how it turned out.

It includes:

one neutral baby hat

matching baby booties

and scarf

and a matching star-shaped baby blanket... which is very difficult to photograph but incredibly cute.

and a little sheep bank, but I didn't make that.

Here's what it looked like all finished. I didn't love the bag, but hopefully people look inside the bag and see how cute everything is.

One last photo of my love.

Chunky Scarf

I told you guys that it's been kind-of a lazy week. Well, last night I decided to make Vincent a cute scarf out of some scrap yarn my sister and I didn't use for a blanket we made. He outgrew his scarf and had been wearing dads. I'm sure he has others but I have no idea where they are. Anyway, the yarn was chunky, so I decided to pair it with a HUGE hook and make a chunky scarf. I love the way it turned out. It worked up really quickly.

Today, I decided to make a pink one for my niece. I made it while we were waiting to see a doc. It turns out that little people scarfs are a perfect solution for spare yarn!

The pink one is shorter and skinnier because it's for a one and a half year old and I didn't want it to be too chunky. My normal model is sleeping, so you'll have to use your imagination...

The giant hook created the chunky look. I love them!

I have a few other things I'm working on... but that's it for now. I hope you enjoyed your weekend!
