Reunited and It Feels So Good

Hey, y'all!

This should be my last Christmas post, as far as I know.  I make no guarantees that I won't find something else down the line that was never documented.  :)

You all remember Sam the Dragon and Corny the Unicorn, right?  Well, this Christmas, they were reunited.  They now reside - together - with my lovely four-year-old niece, K.

K, kissing the new addition to her play-time family

The Hubbs, creator of the comic strip, hangin' with the boys.

And that would be me, showing off my handiwork.

Reunited and it feels so good!

Little does she know that she'll be receiving the last two pieces to this plush set during 2013.  I'm working on prototypes for Ms. Flutterby and Zen the goldfish so I can give them to her later this year.

Oh, and in case you've been living under a rock, these are all the characters from The Hubbs' comic strip.  Check it out, won't you?  Giggles are good for the soul.


'Til next time,

Repeat Crafter Me's Owl Ear Flap Hats

Hey, y'all!

If you couldn't tell, it was a bit of a hand-made Christmas around here...just the way I like it!  One of my favorite gifts to give was this set of owl ear flap hats, which went to JAKE - my sis-in-law and her brood.

I found the pattern through Repeat Crafter Me, another blog I've recently discovered and come to love.

Each hat is hand-crocheted using acrylic yarn and an I hook.  All components are made from yarn, so there's nothing to it if you've got scraps in your stash like I do.

I'm looking forward to doctoring up this process to make different animals in the future.


'Til next time,
