Thread Baby Dress



Yay!! My Annies Attic booklet Frilly Frocks came yesterday! Here is my progress so far. It is done in # 10 thread with a # 7 hook. I'll post more photos as I progress. They are for babies.


My kitty wanted in the photo, so I took another one of her. Isn't she georgous! The porch could use a coat of paint, but we have an old farm house in the country, and the fresh air, green grass and flowers are amazing! The house has a lot of charm too!

Thank You Miss Lady Secret! I was so very happy and excited to find my inbox filled with Happy Birthday E-cards and flowers! Yay Me!! I can barely wait to find out who you are! Thank You!!! My little boy and I especially loved the Hoops and Yoyo card, he had me replay it about 10 times, I have it saved, so he can see it again...he absolutely flipped over this one! Which made me crack up even more! Thank you!

Cute Ruffly Baby Hat...


Even DH loved this one! It is a preemie pattern I have, (it doesn't have the ruffle brim, it is just a straight side hat) don't know where it came from, Thank the Lord I stumbled across it when I was cleaning out my super huge overstuffed crochet pattern folder! I added the ruffly brim and DH said to add the flower. It's basically just a simple hat, (I used a G hook instead of the D it called for, which made it a new born size) then I added 2dc in each st around, then dc, ch1 in each dc around, then edged it in a contrasting color. I think it defines the flowing ruffle shape. The flower is tacked on, it is a basic chain flower. Enjoy!

Old-Fashioned Bonnets...



I believe I was moved with compassion for the hurting yesterday. If you are reading this, I hope you are having a beautiful day!


Here are the bonnets I have finished for the center so far. They don't really glow, hehe, the flash was just bright.
