Not sew much sewing

Originally this blog was going to be about my new adventures in sewing.  Turns out is about all things made by yours truly (and with some help from my other half, Paul of Metcalfe Iron Works), whether it be a craft, a before/after project, sewing, knitting or crocheting.
It's taken me awhile to get to this post.

This was a desk we bought at a garage sale last summer.

I forget to get a true before pic...the knobs have been removed and the sanding started.
We sanded, primed and painted this desk for my Avery's room.  Paul made all the drawer pulls (he's an artistic blacksmith)

Now to finish the lamp and the chair....hopefully I will post pics soon (I heard they were painted today)

Knitting

I love knitting.  I especially love knitting for other people.  I have so many projects on the go that it seems to take forever to complete them.  Or I complete them, they are gifts and I feel like I can't blog about them until they have been given.

Here is a blanket and a hat that I made for a special little boy that I was waiting to meet.  I work with his mom.  She is a great nurse and I bet she is going to be a fantastic mother.  I met this little guy last week and he is soo adorable.
