Makeover Monday: 3/4

~*~

I'm squeaking in one more custom ruffled Easter basket!  My customer has chosen this soft flannel fabric as her main ruffle color.

The base will be made from this coordinating gingham to ensure that I have plenty of the other for lots of ruffles.

Hoping to have it finished this week... stay tuned!

My big beautiful bundle of joy was born this morning at 10am, weighing in at 9 pounds, 6 ounces.

I had to move furniture in the living room to have enough room to spread her out for photos, and I still had trouble getting her whole self in the pictures.  All of her ends are woven in, and she's all bundled and wrapped for her journey to NH.  I'll be so happy when she reaches her new home safely!

Makeover Monday: 2/25

This is a standard issue US hospital baby blanket.  It was mailed to me by a repeat sosorosey customer, because this one belongs to her good friend who recently had a baby.  My customer wanted 3 eco-friendly "Baby's First Ornaments" made as a gift for the new mom!

I really like how the striping made flecks of color throughout each star.  They all say "Nolan 2012" on  the charm, but each star is slightly different in pattern placement.  What a sweet and thoughtful gift!

Whew! What a busy week it has been. I was so sorry to hear that some of you have been under the weather. Unfortunately, I have to add myself to that list too. I don't have the "itis" as Sophie calls what she had, but I guess I have a cold that really has left me down and out for a couple of days. Here's hoping we are all on the upswing soon!

My stair tread yarn arrived in the mail pretty quickly, and I have been working at those for a couple of days.  Here they are pictured next to the paint colors for the hall/stairwell.  Looking good!

We had a change of fabric for the Easter basket, so it will now be made of these fabrics instead of the ones shown on Monday.  I'm looking forward to starting this project very soon.

I sold a rosey snuggle set the other day, and had a bit of a panic as I needed to remember my pattern!  Fortunately, the old brain is still functioning and I was able to  recall all of the important details.

Add to this mix a little rug and a giant bowl, and I'll be crocheting away for the foreseeable future.  I love it!  What have you been busy with this week?
