Julia’s Poncho and knit hat

Pattern from Bergere de France.
Julia requested that I knit her a poncho. She picked the pattern. It was a bit of a challenge for me to knit from a chart. It's probably only the second time I've done that. I thought it was going to be huge on her, and it pretty much is, but she loves it. She will have lots of room to grow in it. I also knit her a hat to go with it. She made the pom-pom herself.

Embellish cardigan sweatshirt

I decided to add this little hummingbird to my cardigan sweatshirt. I purchased the design from EmbroideryDesigns.com (Simple Hummingbird Outline from Toy Box Collection). The sweatshirt is smooth. I'm not sure why the picture looks like it does.

Folding "bread bowl"

This is the "Flip and Heat Microwave Basket from aroundthebobbin.com. I made it for the lake. Since it folds up, it doesn't take up much storage space when not in use.


Could also be used as a bowl cozy.


Keurig "slider" mat

I made a couple of quilted "slider mats" for our Keurig coffee maker at the lake. One in use and one for the wash. These work great to slide the coffee maker back under the counter when not being used.

Anniversary cards

 

These cross stitch charts are from CrossStitchCoricamo on Etsy "I Love My Garden". I stitched and created these cards for my DD's and DSonIL's anniversaries.
