my Camera's broken ...

One evening, my son was 'performing' with his guitar and singing and I thought - get it on video - so hubby grabbed our digital camera & started taking video, then he decided that balancing it on it's bottom & lens so it was slightly pointed down towards my son was a good idea ... for about 5 seconds until the camera crashed to the floor ... now the lens won't come out so therefore it won't work .... so no pictures of projects  ... for now ...

Then I've been sick sick sick since 2 Wednesdays ago ... Sinus, cold, fever, mucus, YUCK ... my son got it (along with an ear & chest infection) and hubby is fighting it (doing a better job than me) ...

So I will fish a few old pics of projects out just so I don't feel so blahhh :)

Halloweens Past ...

The only Halloween so far that I didn't make him his costume ... he was 4 days old here (6 weeks premature) and that onsie is size 3 months :) he was just 5 lbs at birth ...

2008 - I found a Quick & Simple Pattern - Simplicity 7475 - and he was a dragon @ 1 year old

 2009 - using the same pattern - he was a Puppy :)

2010 - 3 years of age - and he tells me - I want to be Spider man! - I made the whole costume except the mask - which for $5 at the Farmers market was a bargain because the trial Face painting did not look very good 

Owl is the grand and rather clever old man of the forest. He can also spell Tuesday.

 It started as a few scrappy strips sewn together ... to make a crib quilt .... then the panel of fuzzy fleece was added in between the 2 panel of strips ... Bordered by the brown fleece

Then it needed some more length so I added strips of some of the same fabrics from the middle


Backed it with light teal Flannel ... quilted it ...
but it still needed something ... it was Zzzzzzzzzzz

OWLS!!

Cute Bouncing Owls ... I hope the new Mommy likes it ;)

now to make a girly one ... :)
