Crafty Ladies, Come In
Hi there! I know there are some crafty (as in crocheters, knitters, scrapbookers, etc) ladies on here and was just wondering what you all are making lately?
I am making a shower gift for my friend who is having a baby.
It will, eventually, be a blanket and hat combo.
So, what you you making? PIP if you want!

Re: Crafty Ladies, Come In
I am working on scrapbooking and organizing all of my grandmothers photos. A great project but it is very time consuming! Project is currently on hold for a few weeks as we have just moved but I am looking forward to giving it to her at Thanksgiving time.
So cute!
I don't have anything currently in the works, but I keep meaning to start something. I have a whole binder of things I want to try. You're inspiring me to break it out and pick something!
I tell myself every year that I'm going to make Christmas gifts for everyone and never start early enough to make that happen.
Off to look for crafts!
Good luck with it! I would love to restain our coffee table sometime soon...it's looking at little old lately.
Nice! Good luck
What a great idea! I bet she'll love it!
Conn I made these for almost everyone I knew last year for Christmas and got rave reviews. They were fairly inexpensive and super easy to make. https://www.beneathmyheart.net/2009/11/cute-inexpensive-and-easy-christmas/. ETA: I used scrapbook paper instead of the napkins because I read that they were easier to work with.
We just did this tonight, but I decorated my DD's pencil box and scissors for school. (Someone kept taking her box and scissors last year, so I'm hoping this stops that). Tomorrow I'm making some curtains for our living room. *fingers crossed*
PS sorry for the crappy photo, I used my phone.
ETA: You can't see it, but I wrapped ribbon around the sides and tied a bow
Awesome idea!
Conn I try to make a few gifts each year. It def helps the Christmas budget. I hope ya find a fun and easy project for the holidays.
Good luck! I can relate regarding the heat! Having yarn draped over you in this weather isn't all that comfortable.
This is very cute!
Thanks! I really struggled to come up with an idea, but I love crafty stuff. I need to think of some ideas for my duckie bathroom. I have nothing in there!
Last month I finished this baby quilt for my newest niece -
Now I'm working on another for a nephew that will be born in Sept.
This is awesome!
How do you do your pages digital? Is there a program you use? I tried doing a few but they really stood out in my book next to the "traditional" pages (and not in a good way)...
Aww thanks! I crochet, but I would love to knit too! I think that blanket you made your niece is amazing.
Awesome! I love brown and blue! they were my wedding colors.
That quilt is gorgeous!!!
I'm working on putting all my dad's family pictures in a scrapbook. It was his birthday present, but that was in July, so it's looking like it might be from Santa now!
I'm mainly working on stuff for myself right now, since for a long time I only made gifts. I'm a knitter, and I have one sock of a pair finished, and I have about 1 and a half slippers finished. I don't know why I started the slippers when I hadn't finished the socks. Anyway, I should be able to finish the slippers soon - they're made out of super dooper chunky yarn so it shouldn't take too long.
I pulled out my sewing machine a few weeks ago and made a dress. It was a little messy (my first sewing project since I was 14) but it was wearable! So that was inspiring, and I might make some more clothes soon.
