Baby time

So things have been hectic with being so close to the due date. I have been working from home and not getting a lot of crafts done because of this. The only craft I have been allowing myself to work on is the baby afghan I've been working for awhile. I don't think I'll get it done on time though. I am 9 days away from my due date and u have been having labor pains since Sunday. I finally dialated from an almost 1 to an almost 2 from Sunday to today which is good. And I went from no thining of the cervix to a 50% cervix yesterday to today. So hopefully we will have another baby soon.

T shirt yarn

The pictures aren't in order. They don't like to stay on order hen I blog from my phone. Anyways first you get a shirt. Start wherever u want. It's easiest to start at the bottom start cutting do its about 3/4" wide then continue in one long strand so it's a continual piece. Then when you are done cutting. Stretch it out so te sides will curl in then make a ball. It's really easy and really cool. It helps recycle shirts and gives a different texture to what ever you make out of it.

My newest project

I made some store bought looking rope ties or my curtains. They look really cool. I'm thinking of tryin to sell them for a dollar a peice on my etsy store

All finished

The backpack is completely done. It's got some flowers I added for decoration on it. I think Sarah will really like the backpack.

Continued if the backpack

So I have double it like I said earlier so now it's double thick. I sewed together one end. And ended the other end. It has drawstrings in it do it's easy to open and close. I am now crocheting the arm loops that will be 2 long thick bands that i will crochet onto the backpack.

So I have been busy workin for the past couple of weeks so I haven't done a lot of projects. I went through a bunch of pictures, over 1000 actually, organizing them and putting them into mini albums so as I scrapbook Incan go in order. For right now though I am still busy but I'm working in a backpack project. My niece Sarah had her birthday this month and she will be here in the next week and were going to have a party for her. My daughter kimber likes her backpack so much I decided Sarah would probably like one too. I use the biggest hoop then fold back the part the is already done. So I have I double it up.
