Mongo Flower Bag

This is a bag I made for my younger sister. It's called the Mongo Flower bag. I got the pattern for it at The Material Girls Quilts in South Jordan. The pattern was printed on regular printer paper and I had to cut out the pieces and tape them together, but other than that it's a great pattern. We got the fabric from Heartfelt Creations. It took me about four hours beginning to end, but about half an hour of that was trying to figure out how to do the rosette in the middle of the flower. I gave up and pinned a red/black lace flower from Paparazzi on it instead. Personally, I like it much better than the fabric rosette. So far, it's held together really well, which is saying a lot considering how my sister treats her purses.

Busy Butterflies

This is my butterfly blanket. I got the pattern from the quilt shop at Gardner's Village. It's called "Busy Butterflies"...the pattern, not the shop. The fabric for the butterflies is called Chrysallis by Moda, the rest of it I got from Joann Fabric. This was super easy to put together, quilting it by hand took forever though. Didn't help that Boo (the cat) claimed it as her own. Every time I pulled it out she sprawled out on it, regardless of what I was doing. I'm not entirely sure what I'll do with it now that it's done, but I absolutely love it!

Reindeer Tammy

This is called the Reindeer Tammy, I made it as a gift for Christmas in 2010. It took me about a week to make and is made out of alpaca yarn. This is one of my favorite hats I've made.

Fuchsia Fizz

This is a shawl I knit out of a yarn called Fuchsia Fizz. It seriously was the prettiest yarn I've ever worked with. I got the yarn from Three Wishes Fiber Arts

My random crafts

This is a blog about the random crafts I like to do. I tend to go through the crafts in cycles. I just switched from knitting to quilting so for now it will have both of those. Enjoy
