The cold weather is granting me much needed time to catch up with my sewing. Below are the latest two additions to my etsy shop...boy's burp cloth set and girl's bib/burp cloth set. I'll be adding more items over the next couple weeks so stay tuned.

mumma baby requests

2010-01-07T13:28:00.000-08:00

I have been receiving requests for mumma baby items in stock, which is great news! Though I do not keep a regular inventory of bibs, burp cloths, hats, blankets, etc., I will be posting new items that are coming available within the next few weeks. I do have a booth at The MarketPlace in Columbia until the end of this month. If there is something in particular you are looking for, please let me know.

Thanks so much and stay warm,
Cristin

I haven't posted for a few months...I can see Amy M. shaking her finger at me right now! :-)
I started working on a couple pettiskirts for a friend's twin girls and they are taking forever. I hope to finish them this weekend and will post pictures. Am also working on a dress and bloomer for Baby Sara's older cousin. Had Colbin and Brody over the weekend so that was a lot of fun. Took some pics and hoped to post but was too tired yesterday - I don't know how their mom does it! She is super mom.

way to go Boone County 4-H!!

2009-03-09T11:24:00.001-07:00

I love to see young girls enjoying something healthy and productive - craftiness breeds creativity and imagination...these girls are providing sleepers to the tiny babies at Columbia Regional Hospital's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Kudos to Boone County 4-H!!!

weekend projects

2009-03-03T06:30:00.000-08:00

This past weekend I was pretty lazy but enjoyed working on a couple projects (I was at least thinking about doing laundry). I'm about 5 feet into Joe's Dr. Who scarf, the goal is 9 feet.

This is Baby Sara's sundress and matching diaper cover.

goodies for baby sara

2009-02-17T08:09:00.001-08:00

I'm a huge fan of Anne Taintor so I couldn't resist making ms. sara

a couple onesies... the other one says "it's so involved being me."

a couple of burp cloths...of course these are really

for mom more than sara...

first hand dyed onesie...do NOT do this in the

kitchen; an outside project for sure.

baby girl shrug

2009-01-26T11:16:00.000-08:00

this pink and white shrug was commissioned by a woman for her six month old granddaughter. I bet it will look much cuter on her than on the wall.

baby deacon's new hat

2009-01-26T10:35:00.000-08:00

this weekend I finished a mizzou hat for my friend Kristen. the camera commotion woke bianca from her nap...I think she would have attacked the hat if it wouldn't have required her actually moving.

do these come in pink?

2009-01-26T10:30:00.000-08:00

Tom had to seize the moment I guess and took this pic of me right before I left to feed a dog left behind by its owner. It was about 6 degrees outside so for the first time I put on his overalls...am I the first to pair these with Uggs? I have to tell you, these things are warm.

bibs and burps

2009-01-26T10:24:00.000-08:00

baby sara's first bib and burp cloth set...more to come

bibs...she is such a hard worker.

Nikki and Tim got married yesterday at the Tiger Hotel in downtown Columbia. It was a beautiful event, Nikki and Tim were beaming the entire time and believe it or not, Tom and I actually got our picture taken. If you'd like to view the "party pics" from the reception, visit http://www.kodakgallery.com/ShareLanding.action?c=5b4bfjrj.1ly5elgj&x=0&y=noxcg6&localeid=en_US

Nikki's surprise shower

2008-11-24T14:00:00.001-08:00

Nikki had no clue we were getting together to "shower" her at Murry's this past Saturday. She was honestly surprised thanks to Kim and her mom. The wedding is less than one week away!

baby shrug

2008-11-24T08:38:00.001-08:00

Here is one of my baby shrugs (sized for 0 to 6 months); used Lamb's Pride cotton fleece for the body and a speciality hand dyed yarn for the trim. I just listed it on my etsy site so it should be up later today.

available hats

2008-11-18T08:05:00.000-08:00

I've been asked to post images of hats I have on hand...the hats below are 6 to 12 months. I am out of "girlie" hats (those went pretty fast on Saturday) but will post them as I put them together. If you see any from the King's Daughters pictures you are interested in, those too can be custom ordered in time for Christmas.

King's Daughters 2008

2008-11-18T07:59:00.000-08:00

The show was both Saturday and Sunday and we were very busy. I plan to do the event next year and of course am already thinking of ways to improve my booth. Lucky for Tom it falls on the first weekend of rifle season. :-)

King's Daughters

2008-11-17T06:44:00.001-08:00

I will be updating my blog this evening with photos from King's Daugthers this past weekend and my current inventory of yummy hats. If you would like to contact me about exisiting or future orders, please send me an e-mail at mummababy@centurytel.net. Have a super day!

back in the saddle

2008-03-26T07:35:00.000-07:00

A week out from surgery and feeling pretty good. During my week off I was married to the couch so I did quite a bit of knitting. Am blocking a baby cardigan tonight so I hope to post a picture tomorrow or Wednesday. Tom has been building a workbench in the garage and it looks awesome! All he needs to do now is build and attach the cabinet doors. Workbench = more finished projects for cristin. :-)
