Happy Birthday to my sweetie!!

For holidays and birthdays, Andrew and I usually give each other things for the house that we will use together. This year, I gave him things that will match our kitchen.

I made him towel toppers for these grape towels.


I made him pear, apple, and grapes dishcloths. The designs really don't show up too well in these photos, but trust me they are pear, apple and grapes.








...and I also made him plain dishcloths to match the pear, apple and grape ones.


I made something to brighten someone's day.

I have a friend who had a rough September. She had a lot of things go wrong in her life in one month. I made her these and sent her some of my handmade soaps and lotions to brighten her day.






So...I actually sold a few things...

I had some people ask me to make them some things so they could buy them from me. I had a woman from one of my knitting groups to make her some stitch markers. These are the stitch markers that I made for her.


I also had a woman ask Andrew's sister's mother-in-law, Stella where she got her scarf. She told the woman that I had made it for her for Christmas. The woman gave Stella her phone number and asked her to give it to me. She requested that I make her the same scarf that I made for Stella. And this is the scarf. It is made out of Lion Brand Fancy Fur on Size 13 needles.
