Baby Shower- Pink Deer

I am soooo far behind so i will keep these short and sweet and try to catch up.  Here are several things i made for my new niece who is already past her due date.  Her nursery is done in deer but i thought it needed a little pink....so pink deer it was! i just love the way these two deer wooden cut outs turned out.   I bought an extra large cutout to make a hair bow holder. I used a glass knob in the center for headband ect to be hung from.  Now i just need to make Khloe one...maybe a bird...or even an owl....um....  The baby gift of the year from me....another mobile.  Below are a few pics of the shower and one of the cutest baby ever...at least i think so:)

tag blanket, Easy beginner sewing project

 a gift for my sister-in-law.  I made this with fleece and fun ribbon.  This was a super easy project and would be a great starter sewing project.  Find a shape you love, make a pattern of it by blowing it up on your printer or free handing it, make eyes, beak, and wing sew the wing, eyes and beak on the front piece,  cut lots of fun ribbon, fold ribbon in half and hold in place with a pin, place the bird wrong sides facing (the way you want it to look when you are done) and sew around entire bird about 1/8th of an inch).  I left one ribbon tag in a loop for a hook to be hung.  I love the bright colors and the bird shape :)  Hope baby lillie loves it :)

Christmas pictures

Christmas went better than i had expected without my father.  I know everyone was thinking of him constantly, I sure did.  My dad wasn't much for spending money or having a bunch of things he didn't need..he lived by "less is more" which i guess my mother helped to balance him out some:)  Years ago we started calling him The Grinch, even the grand kids.  Throughout the years he started to receive Grinch gifts, ornaments, stuffed animals, underware,ect.  It was super hard to see these things as they were unpacked and placed where they would have been if he were still here, but i am glad they were.  Anyways i could go on and on but I will stop here to explain the pictures. 

 Check out Khloe's Christmas leggings, I just love how these turned out.  I think she wore them every other day:)
