Winter Projects

(Before It's News)

Since it's been so obnoxiously cold this winter, I've not wanted to spend any more time outside than necessary.  So, I've managed to keep myself occupied inside.

This eagle crochet is done.  It was harder than I thought to follow the pattern.  I was thinking about an old barn wood style frame so I can hang it on the wall.

This will end up being a queen sized quilt.  The pattern is done, still needs the borders added, the fill and a back.  Then, the quilting part.

This little beauty is all embroidered.  It will be a throw pillow when it's finished.

This is a satin baby blanket.  Each square is embroidered.  Butterfly pattern.

This was originally planned as a gift for a little old lady in the local nursing home.  It's lap sized or toddler sized.  The lady passed away before I got it finished.  This is also a satin piece with brocade end pieces and embroidered snowflakes.

This is the camo blanket I made for my son.  I am currently working on another one.
I've been busy, eh?
