Etsy Store: A Stich Away

Well the reason I have been so busy or at least haven't been posting in a while is because I have been setting up a Etsy shop, to sell some binky holders! My name for my store is A Stich Away, cute huh? I sure like it!I actually started these last fall to try to sell at some of the Christmas Bazaar's, but didn't get them finished in time. So they have been sitting in my craft bin, and finally I decided to finish them to sell!! Here are some more that are for sale.

I plan to make more, with different colors!! So check out my etsy store right on the left side bar!!


That's all for now, Rebecca

Mothers Day Gifts

I know I have not posted for a while..... I have been up to a few projects but not finished enough to post them :) These last two weeks I have been working on some mothers day presents for my mother that lives in California. Knowing that it is already hot there I made her two head bands. I used a clothe head band as a guild and just went crazy form there :) I used some of my scrap fabric that I had a round to make these head bands.

Here is the first one, this is my favorite of the two!!


I bought this yo yo maker from work, and I just love how

they turned out!!


This is the second one!!



With the cute little yo yo :)


With some help from my sister,

I found out that my mom wears a lot of pink, teal and black

So I decided to make her a bracelet to match the head band

above. I knitted the wire and wried the beads on!!


I used a lock and key clasp!!

This is what it looks like on.

Though I have never knitted with wire before,
it was quite the experience, a little difficult, and
I think I might have trimmed my needles down abit,
but other than that it was fun to experiment!!







Well that is all for now!! I hope you make or do something special for your mothers this

year, to tell her how much you appreciate all the love and guidance she has

given you over the years!!

P.S. She called me today and said she loved the gifts!! Which I

was excited to hear!!
