Labels

About 3 weeks ago I came up with a name I wanted to call all of my sewing creations. Kenga Kozy. I got the labels a few days ago, so now it's time to get out all my blankets and sew on the labels.

Animals

I finally got around to doing another blanket set today. I did one crib sized blanket, two bibs, and two burp cloths. They all have a yellow plaid back side and animals in squares on the front.

Lemon Bars

I bought a LOT of lemons the other day... I was just in the mood. So, last night I made lemon bars... yummy!! I have a lot more lemons, but I'm not sure what I'll make with them next. Cake? :)

Tarp Messenger Bag

I have a very hard time coming up with Christmas gifts for my husband. He's got things in mind that he really wants, but if I try get them I might not get it just right. I'm talking mostly about tools. Then when he mentions something he likes I try to pay attention and get him just what he asks, but I generally misunderstand.

A few months ago he e-mailed me a picture of a tarp messenger bag and said how cool it was, and how he'd like to make one. So, in passing I mentioned buying him one, and he said he'd want one "made". Then I mentioned that I could make him one out of fabric, he said he wanted TARP.

Well, I spent a few hours yesterday, making a TARP messenger bag for him. It's kind of hard to sew, because it's very slippery. But after getting it cut and then figuring out what I was doing... it turned out that it wasn't to hard.


Here is the inside... I put one pocket inside. I also used Velcro to keep the front flap down.

Now, you might be wondering what Josh is doing with the bag on his shoulder. :) Well, because he's SO hard to get gifts for I was just too excited to wait. And it's a long story, but I'm glad I didn't wait.

He likes it a lot, and even wore it to work today. He likes it so much he put it out there on the same site he sells he's welding stuff, and someone already wants it. :) So, I guess in between sewing baby blankets I'll be sewing tarp messenger bags.

Ducks

I made this blanket awhile ago, but forgot to take a picture of it. Blue and yellow with ducks in the crib size.

Pink Camo

Here is a crib sized blanket, 3 burp cloths and one bib. These are all in pink camo on both sides, blanket with white satin trim.

Pink Dot Bibs

I found more extra fabric that I didn't have any use for, so I made another bib. :) These are actually really fun to make, but I didn't think they would be.
