Hats, etc...: A little of this, a little of that....

A little of this, a little of that....

I love sewing! I think I've told y'all that before... My girls have their annual elementary school Christmas program this Thursday. Now, I've wanted to make River all these cute outfits to wear Christmas themed, but I didn't. I've gotten caught up in the crochet, and slacked on sewing. I need AA for crocheting and sewing.

Anyhow, I did make River a Christmas outfit. (I know it seems like I never make anything for Al, but trust me, she doesn't really care for the really girly stuff, although she will have a very elegant, pretty dress on for the program!)

She will NOT be wearing these shoes with the outfit. These are her favorite Gymboree wedges. However, I think a pair of red winter tights, some green and black leg warmers, and maybe some wristlets?? LoL I did find a lovely pattern for a wristlet that is super easy to make!

Anywho, I do have some hats and leg warmers:

That's my contribution to Hats, etc. tonight!!! Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!!

Hi! My name is Tonya, and I'm married to a wonderfully understanding and slightly OCD (good for me, he cleans a lot!) man! Together, my husband and I are parents to 7 wonderful, crazy, attitudinal, emotional, kids. We also have a beautiful, smarter than average grandson (don't we all??), and 1.5 sons in law. (One of them is in training at the present time ;-)!)

We love animals and have four dogs.Our baby, a boxer/mastiff (much to our astonishment when he kept growing and growing and growing) mix is Paxton. He is 105 lbs, still a puppy, and believes he is a lap dog. He gets this idea from my pomeranian, Jersey!

Jersey is my sweetie, as well as being part cat! He's already used up about 3 of the alloted 9 lives....

Sandy is our deer. No kidding, she looks just like a deer. I swear that someday, a drunken hunter is going to drive by and see her in our yard and shoot her. Then he'll turn to his buddy and say "You see that deer in their yard? I got it!" We got Sandy from a Petco adoption and found she has been abused. After living with us for nearly 2 years, she still barks at our middle son.

And then there's Rebel. Rebel T. Pugsley is on his last leg. He's a seriously overweight pug much loved by his boys!I do believe a lot of his weight problem is the boys would carry him from one place to another. No kidding.

I love to sew. I began teaching myself in April, and since then, have sewn nearly every day - except when I'm crocheting!

Crocheting is my 2nd passion. When the weather starts turning cold as it so quickly does in Idaho, curling up with a B-rated zombie movie, coffee or hot chocolate or hot tea, a ball of yarn and a needle is my idea of a wonderfully relaxing day!

As I am currently unemployed, I felt maybe I could put my "talents" to use!
