Child Coloring Bag Finished!!

Yes, I finished. :)


The party is tomorrow, and I went and got a coloring book and a pack of markers today. So here are pics:

The whole bag

Close up of airplane applique

There are nine marker/pencil/crayon pockets in the front.

It's rough cut/frayed style. the straps are frayed, so is the edge of the marker pockets and the applique.

It's in backpack style, which is so versatile. It's elastic at the top enough the get the books in, and just enough so they won't fall out when held upside down.

Gotta love it. Which I do. So ya know I gotta make more. lol.

I'm gonna try to sell some custom made ones

on myspace & by word of mouth.

Also including a tracing name sheet w/ it.

Progress - Child Coloring Bag

Yes I'm almost done!! :)

I have 3 more things to do then it's done. I think it's really neat. Hoping (*crossing fingers*) that this will be my prototype for more to come, for gifts and to sell.

New Project - Child Coloring Bag

We have a birthday coming up on Saturday for ....let's see...My husband's cousin's son. lol. His name is Dakota and I think he's going to be 5. I've been debating over the last two weeks weather or not to make him something or just go buy him something. Well I decided to make him this coloring bag, something like the ones I have seen around on ebay and etsy. I'm making it out of a pair of men's jeans, I do have enough material cause they are Jnco, and those are always so wide legged. I have the front part done, as far as the slots go, and I need to put the applique on yet, then the front part will be done. :)

Crocheted Bolero Progress -3

So all my squares are done! I layed them out on the floor:

Since this was taken this morning, I have eight sqares connected. :)

Crocheted Bolero Progress -2

Well, a tiny set back w/ progress. I realized the size I was making was really wrong. So I ripped out all my connecting, and just saved my squares. So now I have 10 squares done and still 2 3/4 squares done. I need 22 squares, 2 3/4 squares, and 2 half squares.

Crocheted Bolero Progress -1

Yeah I've been busy today. This pic was actually taken in the afternoon, and I have done a tad more since then. I'm so loving this thing. :)

Crocheted Bolero Progress

I have gotten 3 granny squares and 1 - 3/4 granny square done of of last night. :)

Kitty Hat for My Daughter

So Cute!

She loves it, and ain't her pose great!

I'd really love to make and sell a bunch of custom ones.

Any takers?

:)

Crocheted Bolero CAL

I started in a bolero Cal at craftster. You can view the thread HERE.

Here's a pic of my first square for it.

I'm hoping this will come out really nice. I'm planning on making the Small size, reason 1: cause I'm planning on losing weight (have another 33lbs to go), reason 2: my gauge is a .5" bigger then the gauge, I'm hoping it'll work itself out. :)

A Ragdoll Named Bella

She's so cute. For a little girl on her 1st birthday. :)

I hand embroidered her face, and crocheted her dress.

She even has white crocheted undies underneath.
