Postmodern Hausfrau: a handy carrying case
http://postmodernhausfrau.blogspot.com/2011/04/handy-carrying-case.html
A handy carrying case. Ok long story short: Stupid blogger just erased a huge and lovely post on this:. I probably hit a wrong key, but for now, work with me: I'm blaming blogger. So this is a carrying case for my kids double screen dvd player. It flaps open. It's padded, and is generally super awesome. No more plastic Walmart bag that it came in. Yay!

Postmodern Hausfrau: sock love
http://postmodernhausfrau.blogspot.com/2011/03/sock-love.html
Who would have thought I'd be having a major sock knitting jag? I thought I was totally off socks until LBB. And I were chatting a week ago, and she mentioned again that someday, learning to make socks was on the agenda. (Like maybe in about 20 years when our kids are grown up and we actually have time! So if I was going to make socks, I set out to find a better way. Enter the toe-up gusset and flap sock, which is really just a cuff-down sock in reverse. I think I've found the answer people!

Postmodern Hausfrau: a few things
http://postmodernhausfrau.blogspot.com/2011/05/few-things.html
Well, I do believe I'm going to be pregnant for the rest of my life. That's the way it feels at the moment, anyway. I still have a few days to go before I hit my official due date, so my impatience is somewhat unfounded (other than being really sick of being pregnant! And for my friend Christine. In Australia, here you go! Finally some mittens to keep your hands warm on your bicycle commute. I love them and cant wait to wear them! Its just turned to mitten weather this week!

Postmodern Hausfrau: a whole bunch of pot holders
http://postmodernhausfrau.blogspot.com/2011/05/whole-bunch-of-pot-holders.html
A whole bunch of pot holders. Making pot holders has become my go-to project lately when I'm just not quite sure what to do with myself. They are fast, use up scraps, and are infinitely satisfying to crank out. I've also got a few gifty occasions coming up, namely teacher gifts at Fritz's preschool. Here's what I've been up to. These one's are ok, but why oh why did I use that peach fabric to back them? How on earth did you find time for all of these? May 28, 2011 at 10:16 PM. View my complete profile.

Postmodern Hausfrau: one week ago...
http://postmodernhausfrau.blogspot.com/2011/02/one-week-ago.html
One week ago, we were madly cranking out the valentines. Big thanks to LBB. Who gave us the idea, and explained her method! It was a really easy, kid-friendly project. I parked myself in between the kids so that I could monitor the glue situation, which frequently spiralled out of control. But they had fun! And they did a lot of it by themselves. Stewart here.

Postmodern Hausfrau: a homemade zamboni
http://postmodernhausfrau.blogspot.com/2011/03/homemade-zamboni.html
Well, the skating rink has been a huge success this winter. And we've had the perfect. Winter for it - really, really cold. I think Stewart has really enjoyed the "art of making ice" and took it one step further a couple of weeks ago. He built a homemade zamboni (a.k.a. a homeboni) and Fritz and Stewart have been out countless time, giving the rink a quick resurface before skating time. I think Stewart used this. Basic recipe to make one. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Mljeanes (at) gmail (dot) com.

Postmodern Hausfrau: some finished projects
http://postmodernhausfrau.blogspot.com/2011/04/some-finished-projects.html
Well, March was a rather dry month in terms of ye old blog. I was busy making quite a bit of stuff, including putting on a birthday for a certain five year old, but somehow never found time to post the stuff I've been making. Something else I finished in a big hurry was a scarf for my mum's birthday. I wish I'd had the presence of mind to get a photo of her modelling it last weekend, but whatever. I'm 7 1/2 months pregnant! My mind is clearly elsewhere. The pattern is the Diamond Scarf by Kristina Larsson.
