So what do I do? Go crazy cram crafting! I made all this in less than 24 hours. Excluding the lion which I had made months ago and just didn't have anyone to give it to until now. I went shopping for the materials and sewed everything the Friday before the babyshower. Which was hectic. My little sister, Jessie, and I had to leave that friday afternoon to drive the 4 hours south to where my sister lives. That cut my time even more.
Last month my older sister had her baby shower, along with her younger sister. (Sort of confusing I know.) They had a joint babyshower since they were due so close to eachother. I was super excited. I always love the chance to make things for people. (Oh and of course for having a new nephew on the way! ^_^ ) But, because at that time I was working 60+ hours a week between my two jobs, I didn't have time to actually make anything. :(

I made another shirt today! But, I changed it up a little bit from how I did it last time. Only changed a few details but thought I would share it all with you guys. I decided to try something with a little more detail. Hence my Dr. Who TARDIS. It was hard finding an outline that was detailed but not too detailed. But, I think I nailed it! It turned out so nice!
I didn't think that I would actually try this project when I first came across it months ago to be honest. I thought I wouldn't ever come up with a project that I really wanted to do in order to use it. Recently, I came across the awesome PETA "I'm a veggiesaurus" T-shirt, I had to make my own! (I did buy the real t-shirt from PETA too, it's in the mail! :D ) To celebrate my first "veggie-ersary", I was obsessing over how to make a cute shirt of my own.
Happy June everyone! : )
This past month has be super busy for me. Working both jobs and over 60 hours a week leaves little time for much of anything else. I apologize for the lack of posts. A lot has been going on the last month. I was getting myself prepared to become a Vegetarian again. A few years back, when I was in high school I made the decision to be a vegetarian. My poor mother was the one who had to come up with meal plans for me and now I sort of feel bad putting her through that. It's not easy I am finding out. So this past month, I have experimented in different recipes I could use to make sure I get enough protein and other nutrients. That is the reason last time my doctor took me off my vegetarian life style. I was too active and couldn't keep up with what my body needed to stay healthy. This time around it will be different. There is my new crochet rug! I am so in love with it. Every time I walk into my room my eyes just go straight to it. It's just not something everyone has and I love that about it. I followed a a tutorial I found off pinterest. Which is no surprise. I get more than 80% of all my craft ideas from pinterest.
Here it is! Finally!!! :D The tutorial for the snuggly blanket I make. I made one two years ago and everyone keeps trying to steal it or comment how snuggly and soft it is. Always hinting that they want me to make them one also. I use mine everyday. I love how soft it is. Now that all my craft supplies are out of storage, I dove into this project today. I picked out this fabric months ago. I was so ecstatic to finally use it. It's a beautiful combination.
