Winter Cloth Doll

Made my first Waldorf doll. Turned out cute. Head looks like a potato. :) Stuffed too little, then tied the strings too tight. Oh well. The clothes make it all ok though. I think it'd be better without a face, so the face doesn't look so high.

Wee Weka Side Snap (Velcro really) ML

Here it is. It is even more pretty in real life. It fits Joel wonderfully. It actually fits him on the smallest size so definately room to grow with this one. This is made with flannel outside and suedecloth inside.

My husband has yet another style of diaper to figure out how to use...the side velcro. hee hee.

I'm glad I figured out to put the elastic on the seam allowance. no wonder all my diapers prior turned out wonky. :D

Another Soaker

LOVE how this one turned out. If you want to see what my cousin did with the rest of the sweater, check out Denise's link off to the side. This one's a medium.



I'm working on a fitted right now from weeweeka (is that right? looks funny). we'll see. it's side closing, not sure if i have enough snaps i want to brave it on, or just stick to touchtape, which isn't preferred for side snapping.

Camping with Cloth

So most of these are store boughten, but this weekend we went camping. It was a pack in, pack out place, so we decided to bring our cloth. Yes, we packed them all in an army duffle bag, threw them inside the kayak, then kayaked across the river with them all. Then hikes another 100 feet with all of our stuff.

But the view from our campsite was gorgeous.


And there's our tent way at the bottom of the hill.

Sewn soaker

I found a new pattern that I really like to sew.
Katrina's Sew Quick Soaker Pattern

I used a medium for Joel right now, who is almost 9 months old. I found the rise was just perfect, maybe a tad short though for motherease diapers. But I have found those things being a one size diaper have a really high rise in the back. I have struggled to get any cover over the backs of those except for ones with elastic and the airflow covers.

Finished Longies!

I finally finished my first pair of knitted longies. Not too bad for a first timer. My knitting wasn't the best. I didn't like the way the short rows turned out. One leg is a little longer than the other. But it's all a little too big for Joel right now, but fits him good. So he'll be able to wear them for a while.






And in action...
