Weekend Craftiness

I spent last weekend with yarn and fabric. House Cleaning? Nah. Facebook? Not so much. It was too cold for doing anything outside so I just put on some Netflix and crocheted my little heart out on Friday. This is the result:



It was originally fleece lined - you can see a little bit sticking out on the bottom right - but that made it not very stretchy and only suitable for little heads like this one:



Saturday there was some laundry done, I really didn't have much of a choice on that one (no one could get dressed!). But I spent some time making burp cloths with matching baby bibs (out of some cute flannel and repurposed salon towels) for my MIL's friend. Those came out really great and were a big hit at the shower:

I found this baby Donald Duck on sale at WalMart (last minute thread trip) and I like using the tub instead of a gift bag because the Mama can use it for baby things later:


I would love to spend this weekend the same way but, unfortunately, my house has been neglected for too long!
