New Additions!!!

Hello!! It has been quite a while since I have blogged.....too much going on! The craft fairs in December did not go quite as planned....not a lot of buyers! But it was fun and a great learning experience! I think I will stick to selling online thru etsy.com and facebook from now on! I started crocheting and knitting some baby clothes in the last months of my pregnancy. I found this adorable (and incredibly easy!) pattern for knit booties! Love them so much!!! Made a few hats and even attempted to sew a swaddler, although that wasn't a huge success! Addison Joy was born on April 28th and I have been very busy with her and big brother Cameron! But I have still managed to find some time to crochet (totally keeps me sane!). Our friends are expecting twins at the end of the month (so excited!!!!) and I wanted to make something really special and unique for them. I found patterns for the mouse from If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, the caterpillar from The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and Max and a monster from Where The Wild Things Are!! I altered each pattern slightly and I think they turned out awesome!!! I might attempt some characters from Dr. Suess books next! So much fun and I think they really liked getting the book and an animal to go with it! My Koozie Mitten pattern has been selling well on etsy.com! Hopefully that will pick up again soon as well get closer to fall and winter! Make sure you check it out on etsy.com (my store is called CraftyCrochetMomma). I don't have anything else big going on this summer in terms of crafting. But I am excited to return back to dancing and teaching! Got to get this post baby body back in shape!!! Happy summer and happy crafting!!!

Below are all of the fun things I have made in the past few months!
