Monster Longies

So one of my bestest friends had found these super cute baby/toddler pants with monster faces on the butts, they also had skull and cross bone ones, a bunch of different patters and they are knitted pants. The downfall was that they were $80 a pair!!!!

So I went online and found a pattern for longies, I realized it is super easy to just double stitch the faces or patterns onto the butt. I offered my knitting skills and will now be adding these pants to my shop.

I can't wait to keep updating the shop and then really start promoting it, I've just been busy and haven't spent the time I need to on it.

Here is the first finished pair of monster longies, actually not completely finished I don't have the cute drawstring on them yet, but that is the only thing missing :)

How cute are they??

Baby Shower #2

I realized that I had never uploaded any photos from Missy's baby shower, shame on me! :) So here are a few, although I somehow failed to get any photos of the pretty cake pops. There weren't any as intricate as the Mrs. Pott's cake pops, but they were white with pretty purple icing stripes and purple sprinkles.

Missy's only request was to have the color theme be purple. So I used some of the flowers from Mindy's shower and added purple, I used a damask print ribbon on the vases and I got lovely purple lanterns to hang. The candle holders were from my wedding in 2004, I made them and was happy to be able to still have them and use them for this.

It was a beautiful shower and I really enjoyed throwing the twins' showers for them, now we have the beautiful baby girls Evey and Lyla to ooh and ahh over :)
