Trio #1 and I
LOVE to do crafts! We love to "blog hop" and find ideas and try them out! We are
never surprised to discover how much we are all capable of.
A few of our friends have had babies, or are about to have babies soon, so we wanted to make something special for them. We found a blog
here that gave an easy peasy tutorial on hooded towels. Look how
cute they turned out!

Trio #1 and I found a Brother sewing machine about a year ago at a garage sale for
only $3. It was the biggest steal of a deal that I have ever encountered. The lady just didn't know how to use it, and wanted to desperately get rid of it. It was brand new, still in the box; and works like magic! Then for Christmas, Trio #1 got a Brother serger from
Santa!! We have a really great office set-up in our apartment, so the machines get to stay plugged in and ready at all times. (I give you permission to be
jealous...) So, we when we get the hankering to craft, we can, at any time of day...or night...
We also included several burp cloths with the towels. A tutorial for them can be found
here. Most of our friends are having boys, so the ribbon is usually left off. Here are some fun pictures to show you how cute they turned out!

| We had a circle theme going for baby Knox. It was pure coincidence. |
We have also made skirts from bed sheets, skirts from pants, a wrist lanyards for your keys, etc. Stay tuned for more projects to come!

| We had a craft night with some friends, and go to use their grandma's sewing machine, thread, and bobbins. It was interesting to say the least. |
