Breckenridge Hat

This was a workshop from Craftsy.com called "The Breckenridge Hat" by Marly Bird. I love the big flower. The yarn is gorgeous, too (Schachenmayr, Boston Style in Aqua). I finished it in a couple of hours....hats are such quick, rewarding projects.

Minion Hat :)

So....while surfing Pinterest last night (always a dangerous thing when my Joy is beside me), we spotted this adorable hat and my Joy just had to have it!  She couldn't wait to be a little minion.  (I've always considered her my minion anyhow.)

 She wanted just one eye.

HERE is the link to the free pattern on Ravelry.

Sweet Cupcake Apron

Made a birthday gift for my daughter's little bake-y friend. She likes purple and is pretty good in the kitchen at only 9, going on 10!




My go-to font, MS Curlz, with a great appliqué design from Bunnycup.

I used this awesome yarn:



Found here: Syn yarn in "Syren" Or maybe at your local yarn store :)

It's so pretty in person. It's metallic silver yet soft to the touch.
