Jenn's Crafty World: July 2014
http://jennscraftyworld.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 27, 2014. July Stitch from Stash Update. Casting a Spell is finished! I am so glad. I have been stitching a few other things as well, but they are for the Tutti Fruity swap I am participating in so I can't show them just yet. So, for my tallies: I finished one WIP; started and finished three small pieces in July. I did go over my $25 budget for July due to some long awaited cross border shopping, but it was worth it! In other crafty news I finished a crochet pot holder. Posted by Jenn M.

Jenn's Crafty World: May Makes
http://jennscraftyworld.blogspot.com/2015/06/may-makes.html
Tuesday, June 2, 2015. Can you believe it? May was so lovely I hated to see it end. June is nice too, but I find it's a lot like December in that it just screeches by as we wind down the school year and get ready for summer vacation. F was much quicker; it took about four hours and was super easy-going. I am so far leaving any added embellishments off. There are a few buttons to put on, and beads, but I'm not sure about the beads just yet. I will decide at the end. Here is what it looks like so far:.

A Little Bit of Ivory: M turns 5
http://alittlebitofivory.blogspot.com/2015/03/m-turns-5.html
A Little Bit of Ivory. Monday, March 9, 2015. No, I haven't actually forgotten about this blog - though it might seem that way. In my absence, M turned five. FIVE! I don't know how that happened because last time I looked, she was a baby in my arms. Some random details about my youngest:. Favorite color: Black (of course, if pressed, she will say she loves all the colors). Favorite book: The Princess in Black, by Shannon Hale. Are you sensing a theme here? She loves the Wild Kratts. When she prays, she a...

Jenn's Crafty World: WIP to RIP
http://jennscraftyworld.blogspot.com/2015/02/wip-to-rip.html
Thursday, February 26, 2015. I finished one work in project from The List. I have to put that in italics because that's how I feel about it. Funny how all those projects you are so eager to start lose their lustre once they have been sitting around for a while. Like a stale real estate listing: you just want to get rid of it and move on. So anyway, I put the finishing stitches into this scarf yesterday:. I used two skeins of Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable yarn in 'Winery'. Have a wonderful day! Subscri...

A Little Bit of Ivory: Spring Break
http://alittlebitofivory.blogspot.com/2015/04/spring-break.html
A Little Bit of Ivory. Thursday, April 2, 2015. Today, we hiked the Appalachian Trail. Not the whole thing, naturally, but a part within fairly easy reach. The boys have been asking about it, so we took a day of spring break to give it a go. We decided to do a two-day trip with it, so yesterday, we drove up to the Catoctin Mountain Zoo to see a jaguar. We drove over to Cunningham Falls for a picnic (in the car, since the wind was pretty brisk) and a hike. This morning, we tried the Discovery Center in to...

Jenn's Crafty World: Lilac Time
http://jennscraftyworld.blogspot.com/2015/05/lilac-time.html
Monday, May 18, 2015. I think this must be the most beautiful time of year, isn't it? Just about everything that can bloom here is doing so: the apple and cherry trees are frothy with blossoms and buzzing with bees, and the lilacs are showing off like I have never seen them do before. I guess they are all grateful our extra cold winter is behind us too! That afternoon I got the embroidery finished and on Friday night I constructed the cozy. The inside is another piece of thrifted fabric. I thought it...

A Little Bit of Ivory: Princess Leia
http://alittlebitofivory.blogspot.com/2015/04/princess-leia.html
A Little Bit of Ivory. Thursday, April 16, 2015. M is obsessed with Star Wars these days. Black still comes in handy because she can be Darth Vader, but she really loves Princess Leia - with good reason! If she's going to like a princess, Leia is a good choice. :). The problem for me is the hair. Leia has amazing hair, and M has gone from wanting nothing done with her hair to wanting Leia buns or braids. The only thing that saves me is her imagination which takes this:. And turns it into this:. Call The ...
