Not such a great shot, but at least she's wearing it! This is a raglan, long sleeved shirt- for winter. Which is funny since I used the a/c in the car today because it was so warm in the afternoon. Yes, it is December 21st.

This messenger bag was supposed to look different. I never did find a pattern I liked. Turns out, someone else in the house actually likes it. I would like to put something in the bottom for a bit more stability. Fun Michael Miller cat print on the outside and the blue is a lovely teal-ish suedecloth. The colors are so fun! Embellished with ribbon along the front and several pockets inside, plastic snap closure- so no worries about popping a laptop into it someday. (although, so very unlikely in our home).

I've literally made 30 of these. I know I said "never let me think 30 of anything is a good idea." These, however, were not 30 bibs. These are small zippy pouches called dumplings. I love the pattern, ordered a bunch of zippers, and finished them in no time! They are great for gifts! This is one of the smaller ones. I scaled the pattern up to 120% and made the most of every zipper. I hope to get pics of some more- at least the ones I have left.

Diaper bag. This thing is quite large. I'll be carrying extra stuff and since it is 'winter' I thought I could also throw a couple of sweaters for other people in here too if needed. I used some leftovers from that Hailey Bag kit and added some other fabrics I had on hand. It is not quite the look I was wanting. I wanted the zipper to curve around the sides more. There are also 3 interior pockets for phone and small things that might get lost in the bottom.

I haven't done many stuffed toys lately. This was a tester pattern.Handsewing the face was fun, I'm a bit out of practice.

This little knitting project holder is so fun to use! The snap on handle hangs onto other bags I carry, or my wrist so I can knit on the go. I love the clear window so I can see my projects and make sure I've got all I need before heading out.

These pattern directions were a bit difficult to understand, but the final product is well worth it! I love using this pattern holder!
