Birthday Crafting . . . I hope


Mr. Manny Man has his 3rd birthday coming up at the end of next month. Never mind that I discovered this weekend that his size 3 pants are starting to look short.  Sigh.  In any event, see that wanna be crown above?  I started it for his first birthday.  I'm feeling pretty good about being able to pull it together for this year, though!  Hold a good thought for me, if you would, please.  I can use all the extra motivation.

And that dragon up there . . . while his story is not as sad as that of the crown (he was cut for the most part Thanksgiving weekend - this past Thanksgiving thankyouverymuch), he only has a wee bit of sewing done on him.  And my little guy would like a dinosaur.

But, he loves, loves, loves, horses.  As you can see here:
This hobby horse traveled with us last summer to Hilton Head Island.  And he has co-opted his sister's Christmas gift - a horse for an 18" doll.  And he has named him (and his other horse friends) Barney.

So, you see, I have to consider this.  I should be able to whip up at least 2 of these, I'd think.

If I didn't have Easter knitting to do.  There is a lovely bunny pattern I found on ravelry that is just begging to be knit and I cast on for Coco's dress tonight.  And then there is the sweater I have to knit for the school auction (but that's not until the end of April).  And did I mention I want to do some charity knitting for Lent?

Oy.  I need more hours in the day.  But then who doesn't?

One more thing.  Miss Coco made her first needle felted project on Saturday.  I am so proud of her!



What are you working on?  This is my first time joining Nicole over at Frontier Dreams for her Craft Along.  Happy crafting!
