I really like to make things, but I basically have no time in which to do it. Unless you count cutting out skin cancers and changing diapers as making things. I think it drives HJ crazy that I'm always working on some crafting project when we have a thousand other things going on, but it is so relaxing to me to work on a project. So, I make some time to craft here and there despite the craziness of our schedules. My latest little project was a hat for Hazel. I used the pattern linked at the bottom for the hat, and I just freestyled her "h" onto the side. For those who are interested, I made 2 short strings by chaining what looked like a good amount for the "h" and then I sewed it onto the hat with matching green thread...very complicated.
I showed it to Hazel, and she said, "don't want it". Oh well, she prefers to wear her bicycle helmet around the house instead of her cute new hat.
