Oh Yeah! (Stuff I forgot to show you.)

It seems like Christmas happened ages ago. Somehow I forgot to show you some more gifts I made, besides my brother's quilt and Hendrix's puppet theater. Feel free to comment about how this is yesterday's news and nobody gives a tail shake anymore. Or, you know, say something nicer.


Or you could just come up with a caption to this picture that explains why my mom is trying to get fresh with me...

This is actually a Christmas gift for myself. I made several of these Anna Maria Horner figure eight scarves for gifts this year and this is the only one I have a picture of. (Plus, my mom is cute. Awwww.)



I made my niece and nephew a couple of pillowcases for fun. Sorry about the crappy picture, I just had to show it because I think this fabric is so cute!



This potholder set is for a bachelor friend of ours that is moving into a new house soon. Single guys never have enough of this stuff, or any of it really. Plus they are super excited about gifts like this. Really nothing better than potholders for your average single guy of 30 :)


And here's just a few bibs that were stocking stuffers for Elsie. The fabrics make me happy when I see them every day. While she drools on them.


Alright. Captions: GO!

    Love that picture of you & your mom. Here's what she was thinking....give yourself another 20 or so years and this is where they'll be!

    Those are the happiest, most drool worthy bibs I've seen in a long time. Love! And as for you mom.... Looks like a is-there-a-grand baby-on-the-way-for -me-or-no pose.

    I'm not funny with captions, but it looks like she is feeling your unborn child (not that you look like you have one).

    I love the mitts for the bachelor and the bibs are so cute!

    Okay, I was looking at that picture and thinking hmmmm...but I wasn't going to say anything! I admit I felt a bit of relief that you saw the same thing I saw. ;0)

    I *love* Kristin's suggestion.

    Caption: Mom's thinking "Oh shoot, I was trying to sneak a pet of that scarf and they caught me with the camera."

    Your scarf is lovely! And those bibs! Ah, so cute. I love the triangles.
