Today was a crochet kind of day...

I found this great little crochet blog the other day called The Dainty Daisy. Instantly, I fell in love. She has SO many beautiful things! Anyways, she has this free pattern for a shell stitch beanie, and I figured I needed to try it out right away. I only have boy babies, so I never get to make flowers, ruffles, or ANYthing pink, but I made an exception here. Isn't it darling?

 I thought a cute little pair of Mary Jane shoes would go absolutely perfect with this, so I looked and looked and came across this pattern. I don't remember where I found it now, but here she is! I just love it! I want a set for myself!

Another shot of the flower. I just love it!

My Project of the Day

Wow, it's been a while! Sorry for the lack of posting! Anyways, on with the good stuff. Today, my dad was generous enough to take my James old in the rock truck with him so I could have a bit of a break. Hubby was sleeping, so I had coffee with my little Tyler and high-tailed it to the fabric store. I was JUST getting ready to leave empty handed when I spotted a corner of fabric hiding behind some others. I pulled it out, and found EXACTLY what I was looking for!
Anyways, I've been wanting to make this teether for a while now, I was just waiting for the right fabric to appear. Right fabric came along, I sewed, this is the final outcome. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it!

I added a little 'crinkle' when I stuffed it, Tyler just likes that sound.

I made the back out of courderoy, because I figured that would feel good on baby gums!
