Projects

So just to explain myself, this blog has kind of turned into a "This is what Angie does with her time", and I thought that some people would like to see what I'm doing, get ideas, and give ideas...I'm the kind of person that has 10 different projects going on, and although I'm not done with any of them, I like the variety so if I get bored of one thing I can move on to another.  With having a baby that's immobile, I've had a lot of time on my hands (and I quit my day job, so I really have a lot of time on my hands), now that Brynn is getting to the crawling stages, I have to plan out my project time a little bit better.

I'm "featuring" some of my projects, and explaining others...I have not made all of this fun stuff on my own.

What a cute little model, she did so well.  So this pic displays a baby hat that Terra made, I put the flower on it and voila! You have a cute little baby hat!  It was cute without the flower, but I was experimenting.

This handsome picture features an apron, yes and my man can wear it and ROCK IT!  Holly made this apron, at this point you are probably wondering what does this girl make...well, I did not want to take credit where credit is not due, now that I have covered my basis...I will show you what I have done.

I have made window valences for my dining room and living room.  This material was the same material used for my wedding, if you were wondering.  It was pretty simple to make and didn't cost me really anything.  My next project is to make some pillows to put on the couches to bring the color in the room more...I also have made 2 table runners that sit on the table and the buffet table/entertainment center, I will have to take pictures of those and post them as well.  I have also made curtains for my little girl's room...I love creating things for the simple fact that I can take pride in what I do, and it doesn't cost me very much to make.

This is a project that I finally finished...it took me about six months, but it's okay.  I made a blanket of random colors for Brynn, seeing as she's not old enough for this, I'll hold on to it for a while.  The curtains that I made for her room match the backing of this quilt.  I also hand stitched flower designs to hold the pieces all together.  I don't have quilting frames so I kind of rigged this on my own, although I got it done, I do not recommend quilting without frames...it prevents bubbles, but I'm okay with it.  I'm not much of a block quilter, and I'm just experimenting on my own, I also don't have the patience to do fancy designs, I applaud anyone that has that much patience.

And finally my last featured project for today...anyone that knows me, knows that I can draw a stick figure.  I wanted to be able to give a gift to my daughter when she's old enough to appreciate it, I've always thought it would be awesome to have my own picture of me that someone drew (sea world 2000, $10, profile, not really impressed with it).  Although I am not an artist by profession, I still pick up a pencil and sketch something.

Well, that's it for today...I will continue to post more things.  I just want to give a shout out to Heather, Thank you for inspiring me to be creative and well to find out more of who I am instead of loosing myself by watching TV to fill the time!
