Baby M's Blanket . . .

If you are one of my friends on facebook, you have no doubt seen posts where I am crocheting Baby M's blanket . . . well, it is finally finished! YAY!!!

I have made this same pattern for each of my children (E has pink, J has red, Baby E has pale green). I think it is SO cute! I love the little hood on it. I used Caron Simply Soft Eco yarn in Lilac Bud for the blanket, and then edges are done with Caron Simply Soft white.

Anyway, I am excited for her to arrive and I hope she likes cuddling up in it like the others have.

I am sort of sad I won't be making any more of these for my kids since we are done at 4 kids. Hmmm, how much would you pay for a hand made crocheted blanket? Maybe I can keep making them and just sell them . . . would you buy this?

Gorgeous blanket!!! Those type of blankets were the ones I cherished the most, but having 3 kids and getting lots of handmade blankets, not sure what to do with them all now.

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus).

My Decade Later Comeback and Playing Catch Up

Hello friends, It's been awhile and I kind of dropped off the face of the planet since moving to Oregon. I got busy with growing four babies into teens, and attempting to hold together a marriage with a partner who was working out of town for the most part. It was a lot! Truth be told, I have been spending most of my time over on Instagram which allows for more quick picture and caption posts (@the.amanda.sewell), but I really, genuinely miss having a journal of our adventures, so I'm back.  Some changes, my ex-partner moved out in October of 2023 (after 23 years of marriage, who would have thought?) and I am on a new, single mom adventure with the fabulous four. Luckily, they are adjusting to the changes well as we navigate this challenging time as a family team. Things are still in flux and hopefully at the end of all of this, the dust will settle and we will end up landing on our feet. Because of this change, I needed to go back to work and after not working for the past lo...
