Christmas gift

I made this for my little cousin for Christmas.  His mom said he like dragons and dinosaurs so I searched Ravelry and  found this pattern.

It is a paid pattern and I modified the spikes cause I couldn't make mine look like hers.  Here is what I came up with.

He is almost 2 so I made the 2-5 size so he could grow into it.  It looked cute dragging of the floor behind him like a tail.

I hope that you all have a great weekend and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Howdy all!!

I hope that you are having a great week.  I have one more day this week and then I am off till the 4th.  YIPPEE!!!  Anyhoo, I was out shopping with the kids today and I went into Joanns to look at material.  I have been practicing with my sewing machine.  It is hard to get a straight line...LOL.  Anyhoo, while I was there I picked up some Bernat Handicrafter cotton ultrasoft yarn (710 yds)  reg 9.99 on sale for 4.99. I watched for this to go on sale all Christmas and was so happy to see it on sale. I wanted to let you know incase you were looking for this yarn and have a Joanns near you.

Hope you all have a great new years.

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

I hope that you all have a Happy Holiday and a great weekend.  I have Christmas Eve tonight at my Grams house and the Christmas morning with the kiddos.  After that they got to there dads till Sunday afternoon and I get to spend Christmas evening curled up on the couch with my sweetie.  ( or maybe playing with my sewing machine that is under the tree  =]  ),  I am brand new to sewing. Did it once in middle school all those years ago so if any of you know good places to get tips and such please let me know.

I went with my mom to pick out a new kitten last night.  She is such a doll.  Her name is peek a boo.  She is a light colored calico.  I wish I had a pic to show you all but she hasn't sent me one yet.  I made her a mouse last night.  Here is where I got the pattern.  http://annemariesbreiblog.blogspot.com/p/pattern-mouse-patroon-muis.html.

The English instructions are at the bottom of the page.   It was really easy to make.

I better finish getting ready to leave in a bit but I want to wish you all the best and I will try to get on here more often to let you know how my adventures in sewing are going.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Finished my sampler.

I finally finished my sampler. It took forever and we got in a couple of arguments along the way but I won out in the end.  I hope my someday MIL likes it.

Sorry I haven't been posting much but I have stopped in an read here and there and  looked at all the lovely projects that you all have been working on.

I hope that you all have a Very Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday and all that good stuff.
