Hats, etc...: A new hat for Al

A new hat for Al

My Alisabeth isn't a total tomboy, but she isn't girly! So I decided I would make her an ear flap hat that is totally cute...and then see if she "loses" it. So much of the time, if there's something she says she likes and will wear and it's cute, it gets lost. *shrug* What can ya do???

The hat is gorgeous, but I think I went a little overboard on the size of the bows! I wanted to find a cute way to tack them back or something, but Al said she liked it just as they were because she could pull them forward to keep her cheeks warm and push them back if she didn't need them. She also demonstrated.... so we'll see!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

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!
