more craftiness!

Here it is, coming to you live from Baltimore, where the weather is, eh.......... Day number 47. For those of you still counting with a bracha, well done! Anyway, I made these blankets for the Rambam Chinese Auction. The first one is kid sized, perfect for snuggling under on those cold drizzly days, and the second one is grown up sized. It was supposed to just be a couch throw, but got out of hand. I can picture it being used to curl up under Shabbos afternoon as one does some light reading. Hope you enjoy the pics.

poof!

I made a bath poof/shower scrubbie thingie! I get so sick of buying the ones in the store and then having to replace them every few months because they fall apart, or just get gross. I made this one out of 100% cotton so it is machine washable and dryable. Let me know what you think.

F OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More Crafty Goodness



cup cozy with button
Originally uploaded by morah01

OK so I made these for a Craftster swap, and since I do not think my partner reads my blog, I am pretty safe in putting this up. I made these cup cozies, one with a button closure to get around the mug handle, and the other with a hole to pull the handle through. They are great cause they allow you to hold the mug while it is hot, while also keeping the mug warm so the drink maintains its heat. Let me know what you think. F OUT!!!!

crafty goodness

I have been busy working and... well working. I wanted to take a minute to show off though. A lady at work asked me on Friday if I make slippers, and I replied that I did, but that just now I was so busy that I really did not have time. She replied that it was a shame b/c she has a friend who is undergoing chemo R"L, and her feet are always cold. Well, after that I could not just sit there, so yesterday, I whipped up these. I think they look springish (I also think the colors remind me of a watermelon) and I hope they bring her some small measure of cheer.

I will also be posting in the near future the blankets I made for the chinese auction to benefit one of the schools here, and also hopefully (if she ever sends me pics) the top I made for my crafty friend Xan

Thanks for looking, that is all from here in temperate Baltimore, F OUT!!!!!!!!!!!
