Craft Time

So for the past few weekends I have been trying to be more productive/craft oriented. I figured the winter time is the best time to try and create things! I also recently received a lovely little care package from the best lady of all time.. thats right, my momma. So here are some photos of things I have been working on and some of my care package items!



Fell in love with the color of this yarn


Knitting the sleeve


The rest of the body I just knitted in the round... super easy pattern



I still haven't taken a final photo of the sweater. I promise to post that soon!




Here are some of my care package items. I have displayed a lot of the old sewing notions around my room, and I need to find a project for these beautiful embroideries! Some I want to keep just as napkins, maybe have a tea party with fine china and embroidered napkins?!
