We Know Now


My daughter found out yesterday what she is going to have, and it's not one of each Boy/Girl but

BOY! OH BOY!

Bless her heart she is going to have two little guys and boy will she have her hands full.
One thing about about most boys, they look after their Moms. I think it's that protector mode they have.
I can't wait, I had 3 girls myself so this will be all new for me too.
Now I'm on the look out for boy related things to make.
Any ideas, I would love to hear them.

    congrats! that's awesome.... boys are fun.
    I have one of each, now 9 and 7, the boy was harder in the beginning, but now he's the sweetest caring young man (9), my daughter was easy and cute now she's starting to show the sassy-ness, how she can get away with anything around Daddy or close to it, oh boy, I don't know about teenage years :-)

    Wonderful! I raised two boys. What fun! No ideas come to mind. But here's some advice. Keep those little guys covered up when diapering them, unless you like taking a "wee" shower!

    I never knew anything about raising boys, but I had two boys and they have been the delight of my life. What fun is ahead :-)

    It's gonna be a good time, mom! I'm a little nervous since being raised in a household full of girls ... but it's gonna be a fun challenge. =)

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl c...
