Birthday Present

This pillow was created for a birthday present and it was very well received!!  It is huge!  Somewhere around 24 by 24 inches. In the back there is a fun pocket to that we placed a book and stuffed bunny in.  Loved making this gift, but next time it would be easier to keep it a bit smaller.

Still around!

Oh, again it has been awhile.  I have not stopped crafting, just posting!  What is great about blogging and why I started it in the first place is that it keeps track of all my projects.  And reminds me to take photos of all of them.  And without blogging, I have neglected to take photos of many of them!  So here we go again.....

Knitting baby hats.  I have made so many and just love them.  This one is for friends who are not finding out the sex of the baby.  If it is a boy, they can take off the flower.

My son is the designer of the font Schoolbell.

Do you see the type above font?  The one in the title.  The font is named Schoolbell and was designed by my son, Jackson.  Pretty cool uh? He was pretty excited to have Daddy help him create his very first font for Google.  The best part is the web font, along with a few others,  are free for you to use!  Down load it here.

Mr. Font Diner went to school for career day and taught Jackson's 2nd grade class how fonts are made and where his fonts are found.  Then they all got to see Jackson's font in Google.  They think Jackson is famous.  I think he is pretty famous too!  Enjoy the font!

New to Me.

Look what arrived from Australia!  Yes, my new set of Capri canisters.   Love the colors.  Love the script.

Book Sling

Yippee, another project finished!  This time it was a matter of finding the correct hardware.  It was difficult to find a double curtain rod that did to stick out from the wall several inches.  Finally, found it here.  Jenna will love her new book sling.  Hailey will also have a book sling in her room, but we need to do some fabric shopping first!  Jackson, no interest......boys.
