Another swap creation

I just completed another swap on craftster. This one was a fall scarf swap. Here's a photo of what I sent to Oxnard, California:


It's made of a really soft wool suiting and a lightweight jersey. If you like it, let me know, as I have enough fabric left to make another one or two.

Fall is here.

We've still got some color on the trees here; I think the high point was probably last week. I caught a few pictures of Goody and Tim out throwing the flippy-flopper (like a fabric frisbee)for Roo.

I think Goody really enjoys these moments with her Daddy. She loves to watch the dogs play, and looking around at all the neat things outside.


And of course, I think Daddy loves the opportunity to play with all of his "kids".

Mobility

Goody is now a master at rolling over, both to and from her back. She especially likes to roll over onto her belly and scoot backwards. She will be crawling in no time. Gone are the days when I can just lay her on the bed and do anything. As you can see below, not even the pillow trick will keep her on the bed anymore. I found her like this after her short morning nap (the pillow WAS on the bed):

Fun with Swaps

On my favorite crafting forum, Craftster, I have become addicted to swaps. It's just what it sounds like: someone organizes a swap with a specific theme, you sign up and are paired with a partner, and you swap crafted items. Fun! So far I've done a pincushion swap and an embellished onesies swap. I'm in the process of a fall scarf swap. My pincushion swap partner was from England. See the picture of the pincushion I sent to her. Here are some photos of the onesies I made to send to my swap partner in Virginia:








Check out the ones I received from my partner. It's really fun, and keeps me occupied with activities other than TV watching.


And of course, what is a post without a picture of Goody? You can just barely see her two teeth!
