Gettin' a little CRAFTY!

My sister Tiffini came down to St. George to visit and I watched her teach some of Mindi's friends how to sew. Watching them sew got me in the sewing mood and I guess you could say it "inspired" me finish a blanket I had started probably a good 4 months ago! Here is the finished product.







I must say I did pretty dang good for a beginner on my own. Just don't look too close, you might have to cratique it! I even taught myself how to top stitch. Actually, I don't even think I did it right but it stayed together even after I washed and dried it!

And for all you people who are eager for me to have a baby. No, This isn't an announcement. I only did this blanket because I helped my sister Mindi make the same one. Bummer for you guys ;)
