1st Dottee Doll received from swap-bot swap

This is the greatest swapper. Not only did she make me a very beautiful winter dottee doll but she sent me all of these great stickers to embellish scrapbook pages for Waylon every school year thru 6th grade. I am loving swap-bot!!!

I think he is adorable. His name is Purpie the Panda

George Strait concert pics

Concert was awesome

We just made it home from the George Strait concert. It was awesome. He played for a long time. Little Big Town was great also. Sarah Johns wasn't bad either. We got some pretty good shots of him too. I will post those tomorrow. Off to take a shower and go to bed. I'm tired!!!!!

Chee Chee Update

Chee chee got a little makeover today. She got a little red tongue and a cute necklace. I still have to find a charm for it. She also got her a certificate (front and inside shown) to give to her new owner telling them a little about her. She will be off to California in a day or two. Wish her luck.

My 1st button Fairy

I am hooked. I love how this turned out. I joined a Valentine button fairy swap on Swap-bot. I still want to put some glitter on it and maybe some beads on the tip of the butterfly antennas.

Which fiber are you?

Mohair – A smooth, polished surface
“Mohair is warmer than wool, with larger, flatter scales that contribute to an overall silky-smooth appearance. The fiber absorbs dye readily and, thanks to that smooth surface, reflects it back brilliantly.” –The Knitter’s Book of Yarn

Mohairs are positive and confident. You always strive to make a good first impression because you are a proud person, and you care a good deal about what people think of you. You are careful with your words and are always tactful. You enjoy having a broad base of support and respect from those whom you come in contact. You attract this with your warm, sunny, and inquisitive personality.


Take the quiz and found out which one you are. http://www.randomhouse.com/crown/pottercraftnews/fiberquiz/index.html

Here she is....

Made my 1st Stuffie tonight Chee Chee Pink

This is a pattern of it I drew. I cut all of the shapes out and sewed it up and embellished it. I think it turned out cute. I definatly have to work on my sewing though. I will post a pic of her tomorrow. Her whiskers has to dry. She will be going to a swapper on swap-bot. Her name is Chee Chee Pink, and you will find out why tomorrow. Until then....

Stamp Club Cards

Here are the great cards we made at stamp club tonight.

My 1st Dottee Doll

Well this is not a good scan. She is cuter in person. Her metal thing on her chest says Love is patient. She reminds me of a Dr. Seuss character. :)

Waylon and I made gingerbread cookies sunday and we decided to make his preschool teacher a gift with some of them.

Mangers then and now

The fabric one I made years ago when I was in my teens. The clay pot one is unfinished (sorry it is kind of blurry). I have to glue some raffia for baby Jesus's manger and I have to put the star on it. I will try and take another picture of it when it is finished.

Knifty knitter christmas tree

Well I finally finished it. I was hoping to be able to make one more for a gift but I am not going to have time. I do plan on making 1 or 2 for valentine's day in valentine colors. Bought some half off ornaments for it today at Hobby Lobby.

Waylon lost another tooth yesterday. He is just getting to be so big. I miss my little baby.

I got tickets!!!!

Well I got some George Strait tickets. Not exactly the ones I wanted because I wanted front row or preferably floor seating. None available but I am in section 109. So hopefully not that bad. I am happy just to be going to his concert.

Concert Tickets

Well I tried to win free tickets today from kssn. At the 5 o clock hour I was caller number 6 needed to be 9. Oh so close... In the morning they are giving away a pair of front row and another pair if you can guess the secret sound. I will be listening. Wish me luck. Anyway tickets go on sale tomorrow for Fan club. I started to join a couple of weeks ago. Wish now I would have. Sat at 10 is when I will be getting mine hopefully. I will keep you posted.

Well Waylon has his Christmas program tonight. I will try and take some pics.

I have been working on my loom knitted christmas tree. Will post pictures of it when it's finished.
