History of Crafting

I started crafting about thirty years ago.  My husband and I married in 1980 while he was still in school.  Of course that meant we had little money and Christmas and birthdays were always a chore.  That my dear friends is why I started crafting.  I only wish looking back that I had pictures of all the crafts I made and attempted.  How cool would that be?  At least now since I own a smart phone and taking pics is so easy that I take pics of every new craft or ones I really like.  It's nice to have a blog to have a place to post them.  I know everyone on Facebook will be glad I have a different outlet now for my crafting obsession!

OH BABY!

Crochet has always been my first love of crafting!  The first time was in 1975 in middle school.  Boy it is nice to know I have improved since then and here are some of the baby hats I have enjoyed making.  How fun are these?  And how darn cute are these babies?




















Through the years I began crafting other things and among those were baby things.  I love making things for all the new babies being born.  I just wish I had pics of the thousands of baby blankets I have crocheted.  Alas, at least I started saving some of the cute little sets I have made. 


Cute little dresses just like what I wore as a child.  I love them and really need to get back to making them since I have a grand-daughter now!













Baby Wipe cases became very popular for awhile and I just had to make them along with the burp cloths to go with them.  As always there are some great inspiration on Pinterest.  Like everyone else I jumped on the bandwagon and began making them.
