Finally . . .

By Tracy | June 13, 2008

So I’m finally giving my friend Julie her Mother’s Day present. I was going to mail it to her but that was crazy expensive, so I just decided to wait till I saw her next. I’m going to a baby shower for Julie’s brother Willie and his girlfriend, so I’ll be giving it to her Sunday. Yay! She’s finished work so I doubt she’ll see this before Sunday, so I’ll post some pictures now.

I made Julie a tote bag that I think is really nice. It’s probably my favorite so far. It’s got a big funky purple flower I found at a bead store on the front pocket flap. (That was a pain to get sewn on there!!) bag1.jpgbag2.jpgbag3.jpg

I made her daughter Chloe some hair clips for her birthday in May.

And I made her little boy Alex a sock elephant (my favorite sock creature so far).

(I forgot to take a picture of Alex’s elephant but it’s the same as this one . . . just no eyes. I decided to leave a blank face, and I really liked it.)

I also made a little fluffy bear for my new little nephew Sean out of a pair of mittens. It was my first attempt at the bear, and I think it turned out pretty cute. Not great but I made it with love for my nephew, so it’s perfect!
